ATTENTION NCAA ATHLETES: Banned Substance Thread

[lostodeassy]

Thanks

For those wondering about banned substances. I would look in the App Store called Aegis Shield. You can scan barcodes on the supplements and it will let you know if it is legal for your particular professional sport. Not sure if there is an NCAA mode but I'd assume there is. If it's not on the app then you can let them post a picture and they'll research it and it is usually on with in a week.

Some of these are so stupid. I understand the obvious ones like HGH, but why caffeine?

Hey I was wondering if anyone could let me know if Women's Ripped Vitapak program is NCAA legal?

It's not banned, just restricted.

That's quite useful as well. Not sure whether anyone before me has posted it already.

Hey guys, I know this is still a relevant and important topic, which is why you should seriously check out BSCG (Banned Substance Control Group).

The man who started this program is literally the guy who started the first US anti-doping lab at UCLA. If you check them out, they are the GOLD STANDARD of certification programs but have customer care that is like a small business. You can call the company and literally speak to the president. I called the other day with a question about Deer Antler with NCAA regulations and he spoke to me about it for about half an hour.

I know Aegis has an app, but I prefer to speak to a human being who knows what's up with this stuff. Or you can email info@bscg.org with your questions.

I only take their products and know a ton of athletes and companies who think similarly. Might as well know what you're putting into your body isn't going to hurt you in the long run.

I just bought Animal whey and it has a warning label on the back stating that "use of this may be banned by some athletic associations." Does this mean that my protein powder contains sketchy ingredients or is this a standard label they put on all of their products?

Hello, I want to ask what I should ask my endocrinologist to give me. Besides testosterone, what other hormones would be beneficial to my overall health and longevity? Also what are some dirt cheap healthy supplements I could use, like creatine, fish oil... ?

[AriesMaries]

Good thread.

[almogas]

Excellent thread idea

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but I have discussed the issue of supplements with my varsity nutritionist and he said that a good indication of who to get supplements from is to check for a third party tester NSF. For all intensive purposes my university uses Muscle Milk because of that. He also said that Informed-choice/Informed-Sport were pretty good indicators as well for safe supplements. Just through I'd throw in my two cents

I hope there will be many articles or like this article.

******** too

[Athletic Edge]

Products that bare the logo's from Banned substance control group(BSCG), Informed CHoice/Sport and/or NSF you should be in the clear.

Every Athletic Edge product, every specific lot # is third party tested by BSCG. Customers can go to their site bscg.org and look up the exact lot # of the product of ours in their hand.

I remember when I played baseball in college, some of us were very cautious on what we took. Fortunately some of the supplements that were taken over the counter and then pulled afterwards were taken after my career was over. Scary as if I or any of my teammates were tested, we would have been suspended because we took something sold at the local health food store as safe.

When I coached division 1 college football as a strength and conditioning coach, guys would come up to me and the other coaches all the time asking about certain supplements. This was often best- getting a second and professional opinion on something specific. Most often, guys would bring supplements that would have caused them to piss hot. A total bummer!!! But upon advice, they did not take it and were able to have nice careers, some going to the NFL as a result of not being suspended over something they bought at GNC.

Today there are supplement companies who pledge and label their supplements as banned substance free. While playing NCAA athletics or as an Olympic or Pro athlete, these are often most safe to stick with. But when in doubt or even when not in doubt- refer everything you put in your body past your strength and conditioning staff.

good

Thank you for sharing. This thread really helps and knowing that my supplement is good to take it is a relief after hearing those some says that taking some supplements can bring you bad effects.

Bitter Orange is banned in the NCAA. Supposedly it's bad, to mix Caffeine and Bitter Orange peel. I've read reviews and and it sounds fishy because of bitter orange studied to possibly speed up heart rate and raise blood pressure. It's kind of like the DMAA craze BACK IN THE DAY

[valeXoy]

yes
