Shrugging at the top of a pull
Shrugging at the top of a pull

Supplements - why I think people should not take them
From October 2000 until November 2001 634 non-hormonal nutritional supplements were
obtained in 13 countries from 215 different suppliers.
Out of the 634 samples analysed 94 (14.8 %) contained prohormones not declared on the label
(“positive supplements”).
Unfortunately Australia was not included
