I seriously doubt that the obesity problem is a result of the steroids that they give to cows, pigs, chickens, etc to "beef" them up. I think the obesity problem has a lot to do with people sitting around way too much nowadays. My brother is about to turn 34 and he cannot pedal a bike a mile on a level street without losing his breath.
Now, testing positive for steroids in sports might, and that is a big might, be connected to the steroids given to animals, but I seriously doubt it. Otherwise, these athletes would have already come up with the scientific proof for why they test positive. They have the money to hire the best scientists and attorneys, so I am sure that stone has been turned.
