Saw these being posted on twitter recently:

https://nutritionj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12937-015-0055-7

"90% of sport supps contain trace estrogenic endocrine disruptors, w/ 25% having a higher estrogenic activity than acceptable. ~50% are contaminated by nonprotein nitrogen (melamine)."

Melamine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melamine

Not entirely sure what to make of this.

From reading the articles seems like even though the contamination part is real, it isnt enough to be cause for concern.

What are you guys opinions on this?

Seems like overreaction / anti-supplement sensasionalist propaganda making a big deal out of nothing

brb buying some anastrozole to take with my pre-workout

I'm actually interested in this as well, and would like to hear more; especially in light of current research/fears about xenoestrogens and endocrine disruptors.
