This you do not want to know.

Here is a good question, the politics and bad science of which were uncovered by the documentary "Bigger, Faster, Stronger: The Side Effects of Being American" - why are exogenous testosterone and anabolic steroids strictly controlled and essentially banned?

What is your first reaction to this question? That they are unhealthy, that they have gross and terrible side effects? Likely this is what you have heard. Nearly 100% of what is popularly "known" about anabolic steroids and use of testosterone is absolutely false.

Exogenous testosterone was banned because a father of a boy who committed suicide (who was taking steroids [0]) rode a publicity wave all the way to Congress, despite the recommendation against the ban by the AMA and other medical experts.

Now, think of what else this may be true of?

[0]: The son was taking steroids, yes. He was also on benzos, drinking alcohol, and doing other recreational drugs.
