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?

Yep, I did say that in response to another post. But this is just my personal belief (Hopefully I’m still allowed to have personal opinions and beliefs), not my “official position.”
I believe athletes take creatine as a supplement for the sole purpose of enhancing performance. The fact that creatine is not banned, makes it a legal supplement. I’ll readily admit I don’t know why WADA bans some supplements while allowing others, but I’m sure they have a much better understanding of this than I do. So I trust they know what they are doing.
I believe I would be cheating myself if I took performance enhancing supplements. But then again, I’m not trying to make the US Olympic team or medal in Beijing, I’m just trying to hang on long enough that I can beat Paul Smith in the 100-104 500 Free.
I feel the oposite. I have never taken supplements but I feel like I am cheating my self by not taking them, leagal supplements that is. I don't think that I will take creatine because it seems kind of like an unknown substance that we don't fully know about and could be a health risk. But I don't have a problem with people who do take it becasue when it comes down to it, hard work is the best way to enhance your performance. Muscle milk on the other hand seems safe and can legally enhance one's performcace so I don't see any reason not to take it other than the price...
