Why or why not legalize Steroids. I've said it before and I'll say it again Steroids saved my life. I'm not alone I've read many stories of people who have done complete 180's in their life after taking steroids. So why are steroids Illegal? I would say the biggest down side to steroids is that they work. Of course this give's huge competitive advantages to any athlete using over someone who is not. I've heard many argument's about how unhealthy Steroids are. They cause cancer, liver damage, acne, Rage, hair loss, and you balls will shrink, if you have them.
Misinformation has lead this discussion. Ever Since the passing of Lyle Alzado the argument against steroids has been that they cause Brain Cancer. He himself of course said this was how he came to have Brain Cancer. This was later debunked by his own Dr. but nobody cared to listen. I doubt Alzado was lying he probably had many people opposed of steroids telling him all sorts of B.S. using him to further their cause and making him believe that's why he had cancer. What about all the other people that have contracted Brain cancer through the years the vast majority of them do not take steroids. They say If you do take Steroids then your Brain cancer was caused by them well that doesn't make any sense.
We all know about the epidemic of Steroids in Baseball during the 1990's and into early 2000's. Why have we not seen the outbreak of retired ball players with Cancer. How about Arnold, Stalone, heck Lance Armstrong beat cancer while using steroids. If they Caused cancer how could this be?
Acne we'll who cares that should be a personal choice risk acne or not. Take some Vitamin A and a healthy diet should limit this. Roid Rage is an issue that none of us can deny. High Androgenic Steroids can cause mood swing's and occasional Rage outburst's this can be limited but not completely resolved by properly monitoring Test levels and properly taking these products. There is also speculation from Manufactures that all side effect's could be resolved with further research.
Hair loss also another personal choice in my opinion. If it is worth the risk that should be my choice. There are also research products out now that limit this side effect. So again a non issue in my opinion. On the topic of your Ball's (Huevos) shrinking most people think this last's forever. Actually your balls will shrink while on synthetic Testosterone because your body will stop producing testosterone when you come off your cycle
they grow back as they start producing test. Clomid and other natural test. boosters can help speed this process up.
Liver Damage is the Big issue most of us will agree. But this is less an issue with Steroids then it is with Alcoholism. Unlike Alcoholism proper use of steroids limits the stress on your liver. My belief is that The ONLY Reason Steroids are illegal is because of the unfair advantage in sport's. Steroids can help with Obesity, self esteem, and over all fitness. My suggestion would be that any licensed Personal Trainer should be allowed to administer the use of steroids for anyone they are training. Pro sports have banned steroids already so the Why is the Government involved?
That's my Opinion, rant, what ever you want to call it I just hope this starts a discussion. We need to work towards Legalization of Steroids in America.
