Check out this link: www.bodybuilding.com/.../milk.html Firstly, are the claims for real? Anyone out there taking it who can back up anything that the makers claim it does? Secondly, is it legal? It seems to be on a par with Creatine which, as far as I can ascertain from other threads on this forum, is not banned. Finally, are there any hazards to taking something like this? sincerely Syd

    If it's proven to be safe and non habitforming then it should be legitimised as a supplement. The issue with steroids is because kids think it's ok and do it..the detrimental risks are too high... Well, creatine isn't banned, if you count that as legit. In 2000, my wife said there was only herself and maybe two other athletes on the entire team that were not using creatine. I'm surprised that anyone in board positions of USAS or USMS would consider it cheating. As far as the negative effects, there are thousands of studies that have shown creatine to be safe and effective in individuals with healthy kidneys. There is additional research that shows in people who are predisposed with kidney ailments, that it can increase the severity of those problems.
