Turning Point does their best to minimize steroids use and abuse

During the past 18 months, Turning Point’s Smart Muscle sessions have attracted 270 men, one-half of whom had not previously employed anabolic steroids.

Most of them find out about Smart Muscle from acquaintances or at the gym and would otherwise rely on their supplier for information; they buy their vials from friends, their gym or online.

The clinic provides advice on nutrition and how best to. That convinces several that they do not need any chemical help. Still, if a customer wants to go ahead after discovering about potential side effects and the hazards of purchasing fake substances, the clinic suggests on dosage and explains how to inject into the muscle as safely as possible. Smart Muscle also offers liver-function tests and sexual health screening.

More people are taking anabolic steroids and that the profile is shifting to people who are not competitive sportsmen. They are doing it because of peer pressure, the media, and for some there is an economic drive.

Fifty-four anabolic steroids are already controlled substances, legal to have for private use, to supply. The Home Office, however, is consulting on adding another 24 to the controlled list.

The fashion for pumped-up gym physiques is leading boys as young as 12 to risk their health taking anabolic steroids.
