I believe they should ban BB Supplements from Boxing!

The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) warns once again of the link between supplement products and positive doping tests. We would like to highlight a recent doping case to illustrate to athletes and their support personnel how supplements and sport nutrition products can pose a real risk of a positive test.

From 2007
Quarter of dietary supplements contain steroids
13 out of 50 analyzed contained banned substances, study says




They should ban those body building supplements from boxing, a lot of them contain stimulants, methylhexaeamine and pro hormones and are not FDA approved. Just because they sell them in the store idiots think they are safe, sorry they are not.

Just send some of those supplements they call muscle builders to a lab to get tested, they will find a lot of anabolic agents in them.

Look what happened to Andre Berto he took some supplement he bought over the counter and it was laced with Nandrolone steroids.

Victor Conte tells all his fighter do not take any supplements that I do not approve because a lot of them are contaminated and he isn't lying.

I think these are the stuff that need to be looked into, before any training camp all fighters must show the supplements they are taking to a commission, the commission should either approve or test them to see if they are legit and not tainting, and combine this with year round testing like the one Nonito Donaire is doing, not the 8 week Mayweather one which Lance Armstrong was able to pass saying their is no out of competition testing is why he beat the tests so easy.

Steroid traces can even be found in whole foods.

They should not ban supplements at all and it would be impossible to test for most of the ingredients especially considering most occur naturally in the body and can be found in whole food.

A drug tested athlete should always check what he is digesting, or even an athlete for that matter.

A few brands are screened for drugs, purity and such.
Maximuscle, USN & Muscletech being three, I believe.

It doesn't matter if the FDA evaluate a supplement, they can still ban it at anytime. And basically anything proven to work will be banned.

The illegal substances inside those supplements are banned. How can they completely ban supplements, that makes no sense. Certain meats and foods have traces of banned substances as well, does that mean we should ban those too?

Use at your own risk

Methylhexaeamine - DMAA?

Wasn't that founded by Patrick Arnold & Victor Conte after the whole Balco scandal?

Well in a sense you might get what you wish for;

The FDA cannot just ban supplements without probable cause. However they are in fact looking to ban EVERY type of supplement in the U.S. that was "formulated" after 1994. There justification is that supplements can interact with pharmaceutical drugs. They believe that if supplements are banned it wouldn't hinder the pharmaceutical drugs. ****** right?

Anyway they can't just ban anything and they are looking for a reason. This is dated back in 2011 so hopefully they are still "looking".

“In the wake of hundreds of dietary supplements recently being outlawed across the EU, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has quietly unleashed a regulatory scheme that, if fully implemented, could ban virtually all dietary supplements in the USA that were formulated after 1994”.

Some of you guys don't realize that Creatine was banned I think for a while or maybe its still banned from NCAA?

Also gatorade was banned for a while, just to be safe they should show the supplements the fighters are taking to the commissions.

The commission should test a sample from each so the fighter has a true reason that is legit if he gets caught.

As far as the meat, I never knew meat you eat can make you test positive, that meat must be injected with a lots of roids I guess, I always thought the hormones in food just make you grow thicker body hair and stray hairs. I for some reason do not buy into Morales claim he ate contaminated meat or that Spanish cyclist, I do believe Andre Berto when he took some tainted supplements, because its been proven that many of these supplements are tainted and contain actually peds.

Creatine banned? Your body naturally produces creatine and its found in meats and various other foods.

Gatorade banned? lol why because it contained sugar?


Tbh I think you're clutching at straws and making this up.

Making what up?

Gatorade was banned from boxing before.

Also Creatine was banned from NCAA for a while back in the early 2000's or they were thinking about banning it.

Article from 2002 layne norton:
Due to this misinformation many coaches and schools have forbidden creatine usage and teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do not even allow it in the locker room. The NCAA has recently banned the distribution of creatine by colleges to its players and is even considering banning the use of creatine. The time has come to stop this spread of misinformation about creatine so people can make intelligent decisions about creatine supplementation, based on scientific evidence, not opinion.



Many of the creatine today is not just creatine many of them are laced with other performance enhancers to give you that jacked feeling to get you amped. That boxer from England used Jack3d 3d the older bottle and he got caught positive.

Many people have no idea what they are actually taking and don't even know all the "fillers" (or ****) that are in supplements.

Some companies do not even label everything that is actually in it while some claim it has certain things and it really doesn't.

Until they realised how ****** it would be and all athletes would test positive.
Dillian Whyte?
Jack3d was banned as it contained DMAA so USP labs took it off the shelf and created a new formula.
