    Thumbs up Doing AS the smart way...

    I've heard and read a lot of hype about the negative effects of AS in the media and other boards...

    IMO there is nothing wrong with AS use, if it is done in the most educated way - safely.

    There are so many things that this same principle holds true to. How about something as common as drinking water. Do you know what is in that stuff? People blindly drink it without a care of what is in it. Clean drinking water is the safe way.

    How about food? What about trans fats, preservatives, additives (for color, flavor, asthetics...)? These things cause a array of health problems.

    Cigarettes, alcohol, caffeine, MSG, common table salt, refined sugar...all potential killers. [All legal, btw.]

    It's all about money and the control thereof (power).

    This reminds me of marijuana and current US law. Is the fact that marijuana is illegal to use in the USA based upon the government's concern for our health? No! You can buy enough alcohol to kill yourself and any others in your drunken wake. They say they are concerned about it being a gateway drug. The actual "gateway" though is all the BS that they tell people marijuana causes -- which leads people (kids) to think that they must be lying about heroin too.

    I've read a lot of the side effects regarding AS. They are there, just like EVERY other prescription drug on the market. Our bodies are not made for any of them. We are supposed to drink water (including liquid from fruits, vegetables...) and eat plants and animals. All of which can also cause problems if it isn't done correctly. Eat too much of the same food on a regular basis and see what happens. Drink 5 gallons of water in an hour and you will most-likely end up dead or severely ill.

    Ignorance is often the culprit! Be informed - be safe. Research AS and use wisely! If some is good, it does not mean that more is better!

    I wish you all the best in health and fitness.

    Good post. Yes Research is the key on AS or any other thing you think of doing. I research the hell out of things that I buy. Get the information on your own then ask questions.

    You're smart! It is the only way to stay safe. There are many who want the money, with little or no regard for the health and safety of others.

    I hope others here will research AS as much as possible, before jumping into something they did not anticipate or desire.

    That's true. They all but banned Ephedra from the nutritional/dietary/sports market, yet the stuff in the cold medicine is a thousand times worse. This again is a case of money, not public safety.

    That's the way to do it! People get "caught," harrassed, and/or bothered by sharing too much with others.

    Yeah, I think media is a big vehicle - sometimes blindly and other times consciously biased.
