Caffeine crops up in various studies as being beneficial.

Personally I'm just addicted to black tea.

Not directly related or necessarily a performance supplement, but I use protein powder for appetite control sometimes.

Isn't EPO legal if you have a heart condition? May just be a matter of finding the right doctor.

You can always get 'diagnosed' with asthma which means you would need an inhaler.

Didn't believe that one till I walked through Transition at Oceanside and saw more than a handful of people sucking on them.

Yeah, funny how incidence of asthma is higher among endurance athletes than the general population, huh?

Totally Agree,

If the EPO thing is true then watch heart surgery scars become the new M-Dot on the calf!
