It is recommended that they not be given during the hours of
competition since the effects of such administration cannot
be know with reuard to safety, testability and fairness.
Many have no list of ingredients, Some contain or react as
substances which will be picked up either as prohibited
or mashinkg substances. (No warnings are available
reguarding withdrawal times.)

It is advised than non-permissible substances not be given within
96 hours of the competition to minimize any likelihood of
a substance being picked up on testing. (see above reference "
"natural substances")

NOTE: It must be understood that this list is not and cannot be
all inclusive. New drug development and testing technology will
require periodic revision of this or future tests.

back to sorting awards on my front porch, with the aid of coffee!
