When people think about steroids they usually think of the “juice” that athletes use to get that home run record. This is actually a misconception as steroids describe a more general cell function. They actually exist in all of us. Their main function as hormones is to serve as a messenger between our cells.
The steroids used in sports refer to anabolic steroids. These steroids deliver a messege to cells promoting cell growth and division. The basic concept is that once the anabolic steroid is introduced to the body, the body has more steroids than usual and therefore faster muscle or bone growth occurs.
This is exactly what I expected to find out after reading the title ing the Gap: Steroids at. Thanks for informative article
I still don’t really understand the connection between anabolic steroids and something like topical steroids you put on the skin. What is the connection? Nice picture of my Governator tho.
WOW!!! im doing a project on steroids used in sports and i havnt found anything about them affecting the bones growth. thats just one more fact i can add to my report. thanks alot for the information. GO Arnold!!!
