Is our government that dense?

Never enough
The bill by Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., would classify HGH as a "Schedule III" substance, equating it legally with anabolic steroids and bringing it under the watch of the Drug Enforcement Administration.

That would mean that possession of HGH, a naturally occurring hormone approved by the FDA for treatment of some medical conditions, would be illegal without a current, valid prescription. Penalty for possession could be as high as three years in prison and even higher for illegal manufacture or distribution.

A second proposal by Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, would make it illegal to sell dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) to anyone under 18. DHEA is a naturally occurring precursor to testosterone and a dietary supplement that some athletes are using as an alternative to illegal anabolic steroids, Grassley said.
 
There are athletes using DHEA as an alternative to anabolic steroids? creatine is a better alternative.
 
Hm, I wasn't aware that DHEA even offered any anabolic properties. In fact it is only good for the 'oldies'.
 
I thought we had serious problems to take care of but the gov't has become so good that they can finally focus on supplememts :rolleyes:
 
Just another example of the US government's incredibly efficient ability to limit personal rights and choice.

Land of the free!
 
HGH has the same penalty as having any other prescription drug without a prescription..The same goes for my beloved norcos(vicodin with less asetametaphine)..bummer but it makes sense...
