I wonder who is out there harvesting all of this antler velvet?
No wonder the bucks are so small in Alabama. People out there chasing our damn bucks around in the woods stealing all thier antler growth steroid.

Or, is it possible, that some/many/all of these products don't really contain any or contain only a microscopic amount to attempt to avoid fraud charges?
This^^^ most likely

I've read different reports back when I actually bothered with the gym and the whole self-improvement thing. Some said it was waste of time and there were others that swore by it. I never used it and have no idea what to believe.



Yeah, literally can't find any scientific testing supporting or deny the fact that it works. Just some test one of the companies did, that of course shows it worked.

I'm sure it has been discussed in this thread, but I just learned from google that the $5.4 million dollar lawsuit that this company lost was because it was actually putting steroids in its deer antler spray and claiming it was all natural.

quote:

"The amount of steroid that was found in the bottle matched what was found in David's bloodstream," Fleck said. He noted that the company touted itself as anti-steroid, right down to its name, and that "couldn't be further from the truth."

The attorney said the judgment is believed to be the largest for any athlete who has been suspended because of a contaminated nutritional supplement.

Yes but if true, it would be the steroids added, not the spray, isn't that right?

Those jackasses should be behind bars. This crap has been going on for years.

In the article Bella linked, it said Bama sent them letter back in 2009 demanding that they avoid all of our athletes. So, Ross & Key decided to prove UA wrong by engaging UA's main rival. They used an Auburn booster to help them gain contact with AU's team doctors and players.... WTH?

How many cease and desist letters from program's does it take? How many accusations of false advertising and lawsuits does it take to put these guys out of buisness?

Actually, we don't know. Crimson said no, with no link attached so I am sure his credible source is his mind.
Only thing I could find about keeping drug test is the same agency that rules over the Olympics, which keeps its drug test, also inspects all the drug test facilities for the NCAA.

It sounds like they are getting around FDA laws by touting a supplement but are really putting controlled substances in it. Surprised FBI hasn't dealt with them.

They tested the players (Bama and LSU) for PEDs and everything else after the NC game, and all the players passed, they won't go back and retest them just because these dudes from swats are claiming we took them.

Sort of like a cruel drug dealer. Hopefully they didn't request some knob-polishing for the good stuff.
