I wandered into the Living room to find the Discovery Channel on. There was a show on called " The Science of Supplements". This was the biggest pile of drivel I had seen in a long time, rivalling Oprah and the local news for it's shoddy reporting.
This whole thing sounded like FDA/Olympic scare propaganda - using the standard bullshit
Mcgwire and Andro, Bechler and Ephedrine Death, Steroids and Little Kids, supposed "dysmorphia" of ALL bodybuilders (as described by a bald, out-of-shape, geeky little man of course), lumping DHEA and Creatine in with the "Evil Steroids".
This really sickens me, as Discovery Channel was supposed to be founded on Developing the Mind. "Science" was the last thing that was discussed in this tripe. I would urge anyone to at least send an email to Discovery Channel chiding them for perpetuating the lies.
