The professor of Wisconsin’s University Norm Fost claims about some common misconceptions connected with anabolic steroids. However certain specialists note about severe and even life-threatening undesirable consequences of anabolic steroids, the physician Fost denies these statements, confirming that they don’t have any scientific basis.
But statements of Norm Fost are not so frequently quoted by media as statements about severe undesirable consequences of steroids. Thus, the message of Norm Fost that steroids are not so dangerous, as it is believed, is noted once for every 500-time statement that steroids represent a real evil.
Moreover, editors usually create a wrong perception among readers, writing the quotes of this physician wrongly. For example, a headline of a radio talk sounds following: “UW-Madison doctor: steroids aren’t harmful at all”. The headline is wrong. It is misleading. Norm Fost has never stated that steroids were not harmful at all. It is obvious that these substances can lead to various adverse consequences. Norm fost doesn’t deny risks of occurring undesirable consequences. Actually, this expert says some other things. Norm Fost notices that potential risks of steroids are essentially exaggerated. This doctor denies the affirmation that steroids lead to the rare type of brain cancer. According to several sources, this led to the death of Lyle Alzado, a player of the NFL. Dr. Fost notices 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 supported the connection between his intake of steroids and the brain cancer.
But a question appears here. Why did Alzado make public his steroid use, demonizing anabolic steroids for his diseases? Couldn’t you find this factor strange?
Actually, it was said that AIDS had suppressed his immune system and promoted destructing his body by the primary brain lymphoma.
A pathologist said that Lyle Alzado had had T-cell lymphoma that was connected with AIDS. According to Dr. Thomas DeLoughery, Alzado was afraid 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 connected with HIV or AIDS.
The physician DeLoughery explained the case. He noted that T-cells of this person were inflamed but the malignant cells were B-cells.
While experts disputed about AIDS and the type of cancer which Lyle Alzado had, no one of them noted about connection between his brain lymphoma and usage of steroids.
