WASHINGTON, March 11 /U.S. Newswire/ -- HHS Secretary Tommy G. Thompson today announced a crackdown on companies that manufacture, market and distribute products containing androstenedione, or, "andro," which acts like a steroid once it is metabolized by the body and therefore can pose similar kinds of health risks as steroids. These products are generally advertised as dietary supplements that enhance athletic performance based on their claimed anabolic and androgenic properties to stimulate muscle growth and increase production of testosterone.
Young people, athletes and other consumers should steer clear of andro because there are serious, substantial concerns about its safety," Secretary Thompson said. "Young people should understand that there are no short cuts to a stronger bod...

Do you feel tired or run-down? Do you lack the energy you used to have? If so, you're part of a large group. Fatigue is one of the most common problems patients report to their doctors. As many as 14 percent of men and 20 percent of women say they feel "frequently fatigued," and in a survey of more than 17 million older people, ages 51 and up, 31 percent reported the symptom of fatigue.
Go to the store, and you'll see a multitude of vitamins, herbs and other supplements touted as energy boosters. Some are even added to soft drinks and other foods for this purpose. Especially popular are supplements containing ginkgo biloba, ginseng, guarana, chromium picolinate, vitamin B12, DHEA, coenzyme Q10 and creatine. Even ephedra, which was banned by the U.S. Food and Drug Administratio...
