The Truth About Steroids
Many news shows and such give steroids a bad name. Too many people abuse these substances, but that is not the fault of the substance. I know that many people buy anabolic steroids to give them an edge over their competitors in many sports. Baseball, Football, Weight Lifting, Body Building, and Wrestling are just a few of the sports that come to mind when you think of steroids and their affects. It is true that many steroids like deca durabolin are used by people illegally, but some of these substances are very helpful to people and it is not the substance but the people who abuse them who should be in trouble. Deca therapy is a very common injectable steroid that is used to bulk up and if used properly can be very helpful in attaining rapid muscle growth. People don't like it but this injectable steroid has been available by prescription since 1962 in this country and is a very good steroid to use especially if you are into body building. Like anything over doing anything can have its bad effects, but it is still available today and many people use it without a problem.
Clenbuterol is also a steroid that is widely used, only it is prescribed mostly for asthma but can also be used for weight loss. No one sees a problem with using these steroids but everyone is up in arms about anabolic steroids.
This is all just a media hype situation and people need to realize that. People need to do more to educate themselves about steroids facts . There are many things that medicine doesn't know about, but they still put the stuff on the market. Anabolic steroids have been around for years and years, over 40 to be exact and if they didn't serve a purpose, then why are they still around?
I think that it is important to make informed choices, but I also feel that it is our right to do what we want to our own bodies. After all, the government can't tell us what we can and can not take, that just isn't right. If you choose to avoid using steroids, then that is a personal choice and I respect your right to choose, but as for me I am still going to use steroids to pump up before a competition and I feel that is my informed choice and my right. My body, my decision.
