Possible risks related to steroids are exaggerated

Tge Wisconsin University professor Norm Fost claims about some common misconceptions linked with anabolic steroids. However some experts proclaim about severe and even fatal side consequences of anabolic steroids, Dr. Fost denies these affirmations, confirming that they don’t have any scientific basis.
But statements of this doctor are not so often quoted by media as affirmations about dangerous adverse reactions of steroids. Thus, the message of Norm Fost that steroids aren’t so harmful, as it is believed, is noticed once for every 500-time conclusion that steroids represent a real evil.
Moreover, editors usually mislead readers, writing the quotes of this expert wrongly. For example, a headline of a radio talk sounds following: “UW-Madison doctor: steroids aren’t harmful at all”. The headline is wrong. It is misleading. Norm Fost has never confirmed that steroids were not harmful at all. It is evident that these substances may lead to different undesirable effects. Norm fost doesn’t deny risks of occurring undesirable symptoms. In fact, this doctor says some other things. This physician notes that possible risks of steroids are essentially exaggerated. Norm Fost denies the statement that steroids cause the rare type of brain cancer. According to some sources, this caused the death of Lyle Alzado, a player of the NFL. Norm Fost claims that there is no any link between the death of this player and steroids.
Alzado demonized his prolonged steroid abuse for the primary brain lymphoma that finally caused his death. Assertion of this person was the only evidence that indicated about the connection between his administration of steroids and the brain cancer.
But a question appears here. Why did Alzado make public his steroid use, blaming anabolic steroids for his illness? Couldn’t you find this fact strange?
In fact, it was said that AIDS had suppressed his immune system and promoted destructing his body by the primary brain lymphoma.
A pathologist said that Alzado had had T-cell lymphoma which was linked with AIDS. According to Dr. Thomas DeLoughery, Alzado feared that the public would know that he died from AIDS because of the cancer.
Pathologists at OHSU reported that this football player had had B-cell lymphoma which was not linked with HIV or AIDS.
The physician DeLoughery explained the situation. He said that T-cells of this person were inflamed but the malignant cells were B-cells.
While experts disputed about AIDS and the type of cancer which Alzado had, no one of them confirmed about links between his brain lymphoma and intake of steroids.
