Does anyone know if any ingredients from Cell-Tech by MuscleTech, Serious Mass by Optimum Nutrition, NO2 Platinum by MRI, True-Mass by BSN, CellMass by BSN, or Black Hole by Controlled Labs will show up on a drug test? I am not sure, but I want to play it safe. Any help or advice on the topic would be great.
Why would it matter if they arent illegal?

there was a rumor that some supplements had steriods in it.
well you havent got anything to worry about unless your doin roids or weed to show up on drug test, because none of that will have it shown up i dont think if it does its legal and you can use it.

thats kinda stupid...

I've never heard of it.
there was some **** about it in the supplement section but i wouldnt worry about it
There have been instanced of "tainted" supplements that have gotten athletes in trouble before. I am pretty sure that they have cracked down on that a little bit so any legal supplements should be alright.
Thanks for all the information.
It was a Universal product that a swimmer was taking. It supposely made him test positive for steroids. I doubt its true.

DAMN! What bout M-stak?
as in prohormones? test boosters and everything in that category?
I dont buy it, what you see is what you get.
you guys never heard of that rumor? it was on usa today (serious)
Mike Cloud (NFL) used Nitro-Tech protein powder and tested pos for some sort of steroid.
Wasn't that awhile back?
When they test a sample, they analyze it for specific drugs. They perform a battery of tests, each one looking for a particular drug or evidence of same (for example, if they tested for testosterone levels, and found that the levels in the sample were way over normal, then that would suggest that you are either taking testosterone or a product that elevates testosterone). If they tested red blood cell count and found those extremely elevated, that would suggest that you were taking EPO, etc.
There is no test to see if you are using Cell-Tech. If, however, there are steroids in your Cell-Tech and they did happen to show up in a test, then you'd be in serious trouble. And, I doubt "I only use Cell-Tech" would be a good defence.

they're testing test. boosters?
I really doubt whey protein powders, amino pills, creatine contain anything more than they should, as for other supps then I cant have a opinion if they are tested.

some protein powders, pills, and creatine probably are tainted so their customers get better gains and buy it again, or because the products are being manufactured in the same area where steroids are being manufactured.

I found a list of supplements that are certified not to contain any steroids.
NSF tests for the NFL and other sport organizations.
Those supplements have been certified for NFL players, so its pretty legit.

Creatine is what they use in measuring the gravity of a urine specimen and so if used in supplementation will cause a UA to be adulterated like if you use goldenseal as a mask. Also be aware that some supplements used for bodybuilding and especially dieting contain stimulants (other than ephedrine) that will cause a positive on a drug test so it's best to do your research thoroughly. It also depends on factors such as if the sample will be tested in a lab or by dipstick.
Here's a list from the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA). Craze was taken off a while back for amphetamine. I wanted to try that stuff too.

What kind of drug test are you talking about? One for a job/probation/any other reason that is testing for illegal and prescription drugs? Or an athletic drug test, NCAA, USADA etc.?

Why would you bump a 7 year old thread to post misinformation?
Firstly, you mean creatinine, not creatine. It's also a separate test to specific gravity and the thing they look for is too little creatinine - not too much. Adulterating the sample, my arse.
It matters because if you're in the military they don't give a **** if it's legal or not it's your responsibility to know what you're taking and if you pop, you pop and it won't be good.
