The professor of Wisconsin’s University Norm Fost destroys several common misconceptions related to anabolic steroids. Although certain experts proclaim about dangerous and even life-threatening unwanted reactions of anabolic steroids, the doctor Fost denies these statements, claiming that they don’t have any scientific basis.
But statements of this expert are not so frequently quoted by media as affirmations about severe side reactions of steroids. So, the message of Norm Fost that steroids are not so harmful, as it is believed, is noticed once for every 500-time statement that steroids represent a real evil.
Moreover, editors usually mislead readers, writing the quotes of this doctor wrongly. For example, a headline of a radio talk sounds following: “UW-Madison doctor: steroids aren’t harmful at all”. The headline is not correct. It is misleading. Norm Fost has never stated that steroids were not harmful at all. It is evident that these drugs can cause different negative reactions. Norm fost doesn’t deny probability of appearing negative effects. In fact, this specialist says some other things. This expert notices that potential risks of steroids are significantly exaggerated. This specialist denies the statement that steroids lead to the rare form of brain cancer. According to certain sources, this caused the death of Lyle Alzado, a player of the NFL. Dr. Fost confirms that there is no any connection between the death of this player and steroids.
Alzado demonized his prolonged steroid abuse for the primary brain lymphoma that finally led to his death. Assertion of this person was the only evidence that indicated about the connection between his usage of steroids and the brain cancer.
But a question appears here. Why did Lyle Alzado make public his steroid use, blaming anabolic steroids for his diseases? Couldn’t you find this aspect strange?
In fact, it was said that AIDS had suppressed his immune system and induced destroying his body by the primary brain lymphoma.
A pathologist said that Alzado had had T-cell lymphoma that was connected with AIDS. According to Dr. Thomas DeLoughery, Alzado feared that the public would know that he died from AIDS because of the cancer.
Pathologists at OHSU reported that Lyle Alzado had had B-cell lymphoma which was not linked with HIV or AIDS.
The doctor DeLoughery explained the situation. He noted that T-cells of this person were inflamed but the malignant cells were B-cells.
While specialists disputed about AIDS and the type of cancer that Alzado had, no one of them claimed about connection between his brain lymphoma and intake of steroids.
