Buell, Jackie. "Supplementing the Game: A Review of Dietary Supplements for College Athletes." NCAA.org. N.p., 10 Feb. 2015. Web. 18 May 2015.
In this article author Jackie Buell, is an assistant professor with a PhD in clinical, Sports Nutrition, at Ohio State University. She covers the use of pre workout and recovery supplements within athletes. She explains that buyers should beware of ingredients and products bought especially by athletes. Certain supplements are banned by the NCAA due to cheating by increased body function, but also because of illegal products taken by unaware athletes in their pre workout and recovery supplements. In my paper, I will mainly focus on the pre workout section rather than recovery supplements. I can also use this article as a reference in support to my case against pre workout showing that not even profession athletes cannot use these substances due to the harmful and potentially dangerous ingredients.
1. Buell states, “Investigators recently found DMBA in 12 of 14 tested products, confirming a suspicion that several products contain this untested and illegal stimulant” (Buell).
2. Even seemingly harmless stimulants are severe; “the NCAA bans caffeine and sets its testing threshold at a level to accommodate moderate consumption; high levels of caffeine and other stimulants in the urine would render the athlete ineligible if detected during drug testing” (Buell).
3. Caffeinated drinks have been used to increase power and` stamina if taken at the right dosages, “the ergogenic dose of caffeine is fairly low (2-6 mg/kg) taken 30 to 60 minutes before activity; higher doses can be dangerous, toxic or even lethal” (Buell).
