Okay, tried to answer many of the questions in this thread here:
http://www.slowtwitch.com/...sing_AAFs__6214.html - steps to show contaminated supplement actually caused an AAF
- why the various scenarios about athletes doping and then blaming it on a supplement don't hold water
- why you can actually put some faith in reduced sanctions when they are given
- and some more.
But the bottom line is this, given the numerous options out there for safe, reliable products, no athlete should get an AAF for a contaminated supplement if they are diligent in researching what they are taking.
Oh, and these articles are already too long, but to give some clarity, as of today, this is the list of all 37 supplements and their manufacturers on the Supplement411.org HRL that would be considered "contaminated," meaning that they don't list a prohibited substance on the label (or didn't at the time they were put on the HRL). You decide how much sympathy you have for someone who takes a product like this:
