I am genuinely curious on how to resolve your statement saying "why the various scenarios about athletes doping and then blaming it on a supplement don't hold water", with the following article:
http://firstoffthebike.com/...how-big-is-the-risk/
Important paragraph from the article (emphasis theirs): A recent investigation released by LGC (an international supplement testing company) tested 67 supplement products from Australian internet sites and retail stores (all
supplements tested were not part of any testing program). What they found was incredibly alarming – ONE in FIVE supplements showed contamination with a banned substance – with 2 of the 67 supplements showing such high levels of the banned substance that deliberate adulteration could not be ruled out.
The most common items found was banned stimulants and anabolic steroids…….1 in 5 supplements tested showed contamination with a banned substance.
Thoughts?
