just whether it's safe and effective as claimed.

It was banned because the FDA did not feel it was safe and effective.

While the recommendations listed in the article suggest a use as a testosterone booster (recommended dosages are really low), it didnt' take long for people to realize that a higher dose will work more similarly to legit steroids.

Issues, of course are the side effects associated with this:
-shutdown of the hypothalamus pituitary testicular axis
-increased estrogen (4-AD can convert directly into test or estrone. If it becomes test, it can convert directly into estradiol or DHT. If it becomes estrone, it converts into estradiol. 1 stop route to test, 2 routes (1 and 2 stops) to estrogens).
-Can cause issues with teens using it due to drastic variations in the endocrine system at such a crucial stage of development; although, I really don't recommend a testosterone supplement of any sort to teenagers.

Yeah.....it worked a little TOO good; hence, it's becoming banned.
