Dietary supplements accepted by the NCAA?

[Panther88]

I think I asked this question before. I haven't gone through great lengths to visit ncaa.org to determine what is and isn't acceptable.

Is there someone in the know?

Just tried to PM you...but it didn't work.

Here is a link (http://fdudevils.com/documents/2014/7/16/DIII_2012_13_Banned_Drugs_Educational_2.pdf) to the list (its from 2013...I didn't update it yet)

Your question can get complicated, but if I can help you further, please PM me....

Thanks again Bill! I recvd the PM.

I really appreciate the insight and info.

Are there certain entities who manufacture supplements aligned w/ specific D-I FCS schools?

The rationale for my inquiry is because my former HS is aligned w/ an entity and those kids are doing "stuff" and have been doing "stuff" since earlier this spring. :( Honestly, we've been doing "stuff" since my soph yr of HS (anabolic then). :(

I'm just glad the NCAA stopped being stupid about peanutbutter!

The problem is without further regulation of dietary supplements there will always be something new that is right on the edge of acceptable. The fact that products do not need evidence of effectiveness or safety is frightening. Hopefully individuals are thinking through the risks that go along with some of these products, and trying to stay safe.
