I don't do drugs. And I don't smoke. I don't have to smoke to know it's cancer causing etc. etc. etc.
Since you mentioned it, there is conflicting evidence that steroids have such an adverse affect as people have tried to make it. There is a significant part of the medical community that does not see steroids used under a doctor's observation that these drugs have many benefits. And before you say, "How can you say that?" Many drugs in this country are prescribed, but when people take doses above and beyond their intended use, they are abusing that drug and can create other symptoms they would not have had if they did not take the drug at all. I was prescribed Viacotin after a car accident; I did not take it after its intended use. But Farve from the Packers was an addict.

Peace
