Some guys will take anything to get bigger, stronger, harder. That’s just human nature. Back in the ‘70s heyday of the drug culture, nobody questioned what was in the acid / mushrooms / quaaludes etc. we might have been popping freely. Some people back then, as is the case now, died.

The health supplement industry is basically unregulated, meaning the contents or ingredients of the supplement we are taking do not have to necessarily be listed on the label. Many times the contents are unlawful pharmaceuticals.

This is a very interesting article in Men’s Journal about two renegade supplements producers. They are successful for a number of reasons, but most of all because a lot of guys will pop anything without question that promises to give them the results they crave.
