All the shops I know do the same things.

I do agree that PH can **** you really bad if you don't know what are you doing. And 95% of the users don't know about the sides or pct....

They should be banned and illegal to sell with a serious fines.

Like the doctors said: Elite athletes don't use those kind of products. It's the general public who use theses and they don't know what they are doing. They have no idea of the serious and permanent sides they can get.

I hope it will make a good impact on the shops around Quebec.

[MuSuLPhReAk]

If the police do anything about it, then unfortunately, a lot of the small shops will close down as they are big money makers. But I do agree, this stuff should not be sold to uneducated people as they can harm themselves.

Looks like game over for PROMATRIX.

[simon85]

Sorry guys. I gave the wrong link for the part2. I fixed up!

[Kronis]

can i get a summary, as i am an ignorant anglo :P

The first vid they go into random supplement shops asking for specific illegal substances such as m1t, caffeine/effidrine mixes and steroids and they get it openly. One place even had it on display behind a glass counter.

They get it all on hidden cam with the faces of the employees and the name of the shops. Big trouble for those places.

Second vid I haven't watched yet.

In the second video, they tested the products by a chemist and she said it's prohormone, a steroid. She said the chemical name on the label have nothing to do with the substance tested and that chemical name have no sense to her. She said there's no study backing those products and they can be dangerous.

She said elite athletes don't use those kind of products. They use hormones backed with full of studies, just like Ben Johnson and stanozolol.


Then, they recontacted the sellers face to face to ask questions about the products they sold. Some sellers said they didn't know it was steroids, some say they knew...

Radio Canada should be reporting the $500 million spent by the government on studies on the French language over the past 4 years instead of doing this.

True that. Unfortunately in Quebec they waste a ton of money on things most provinces or countries don't care about. It's hurt our economy huge. Would you happen to know the actual financial debt quebec is in?

On the note of the video's. This has been happening for the last 20-30 years in supp shops. It's nothing new. Just that now since the US is on a crusade against AAS, I figure the tv station jumped on the bandwagon to get some ratings. TV sensationalism at it's finest.

Provincial debt is about $125 billion.

Unfortunately correct. Last time I checked, Quebec had the largest per capita debt in the country :( Gov't spending is out of control here.

An old timer told me 10-15 years ago, eas whey proteins contains few grams of dbol. That's pretty interesting.

A bunch of companies used to do that back in the days.

Yes, it is true. Many supp co's were putting "extra" in their mixes. I hope it's a little more controlled today.

If supplement companies still had access to things like dbol, nandrolone, etc, we would not be worrying so much about the effects of ORD because the suppliers who would sell product to EAS could also end up, inadvertently, moving product to UGLs.

Personal responsibility does become a factor in this equation though. All one has to do is google side effects of a certain compound and they can educate themselves.

Most of the people I know who take things like M1t, 4-AD, etc, have no clue about diet or training as is, and so in effect it is like social darwinism where the dumb die off.
