Research on Bodybuilding Supplements

In the past, I've done some digging into the supplement world, specifically bodybuilding supplements. This post might be more scientific and formal than usual but I hope it is clear enough. For the full, more in-depth article, skip to below and/or click read more.

Are these really safe and do what they claim?

To me, most of these supplements are unnecessary and tend to mislead people. They might be beneficial but they also pose risks due to the lack of regulation by the government. Unlike food or pharmaceuticals companies, supplement manufacturers don't have the same strictness in terms of batch testing, clinical studies, and cleanliness. I'm not saying that bodybuilding supplements should be abolished or anything like that; rather, they should be more strictly regulated. More and more people are becoming interested in using supplements and the government and supplement manufacturers should work together to make the most efficient and safe products for consumer use. Consumers shouldn't have to worry about whether the pills or powder they're taking contains growth hormones or heavy metals.  Thanks for your interest and I hope you learn something new. Share it and use it in your work if you'd like but please show me some love and give me credit :) I also encourage you to read some of the works cited.

EDIT: The feed is stopping and starting, I'm not sure why. I'm assuming it's Scooby's connection. Maybe it's just me. And credit to Scooby Werkstatt. THIS IS NOT ME DEPICTED IN THE VIDEO. Also, I do not know why the feed now says 2 hours 50 something minutes.  


Okay everyone the workout is officially over. Thanks to Scooby for understanding and I hope your back workout turns out much better!
