However athletes are warned about side effects of steroids, they don’t take this issue seriously

Timothy Armstrong of the World Health Organization claims that anabolic steroids are dangerous for public health. While these products are often used by athletes, bodybuilders and ordinary people for increase of muscle mass and endurance, they may have negative impact on physical and mental health of consumers. Unluckily, dangers connected with these medications are not treated seriously. Although numerous experts warn that these medications may produce serious undesirable reactions, many individuals continue to administer them for performance-enhancing effects.
Timothy Armstrong tries to protect public health. He has presented a speech about usage of steroids at a conference organized by the chairman of the International Olympic Committee Arne Ljungqvist. Thus, Timothy Armstrong helps to eliminate illicit intake of steroids.
As for Arne Ljungqvist, he put efforts in order to fight against application of steroids in sports. According to the chairman of the International Olympic Committee, administration of steroids represents a moral problem. Those that take doping products don’t compete fairly. They take unfair advantage over those that don’t apply these products. So, they act improperly.
Undoubtedly, Arne Ljungqvist is happy that Timothy Armstrong is also against administration of steroids. He affirms that anti-doping agencies should work with the World Health Organization more closely. The united efforts will be capable to eliminate application of performance-enhancing drugs from professional sports.
Timothy Armstrong affirms that anti-doping agencies should have direct relations with law enforcements and customs officers. If they work together, their fight against illicit deals connected with steroids and other controlled substances will be more efficient. They should inform each other about persons that have something to do with illegal preparations. Thus, they can reach their goals.
