protien hysteria


The USAtoday is routinely wrong on supplement issues and groups protien powder in with anabolic steroids.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/...remedies_x.htm

Warning parents not to let their young son's take whey protien b/c it may be laced with steriods? Has anyone ever in seen a product in this country laced with steriods/steroid like compounds without advertising it prominately on the lablel (outside of a MLB locker room that is)

for crying out loud. if this is true, then where is the verifiable source? i know way back when, some mass-gainer products did contain clen and i think the other was dbol - but those products have been LONG discontinued or reformulated.

to me, the entire article read like a slam at the alternative medicine industry - "stick with pharmaceuticals - the side effects will probably be worse than the problem, but at least it's covered by your HMO". i really hate the way they attempted to pander to parental paranoia. when my daughter was 4, i was giving her protein shakes up the ying-yang. mind you, i was using caseinate (a friend in the food industry would bring it to me in ten-pound bags for free) but had i know about whey protein, you bet i'd've been shovelling it down her throat in job lots!

Where can I find this protien laced with steroids? Maybe if I email USA Today they'll tell me where they got theirs.

All the users have been paying huge sums of money for their steroids; dumbasses.

Why pay for roids when you can get it laced for only 20 dollars per 5 pounds in your whey protein!
