Why is there tainted meat in Russia and Mexico?

[M Bison]

In Mexico, they want the cows to be strong and cut, no pun intended but that's why they eject them with steroids so the meat is more tender. Probably the same reason in russia.

Yep this, SARM's are experimental type of drugs I'm not sure If they're classified as drugs yet because they're still in the process of trying to fully develop these things and they might never reach their full potential because of the finance that would be required to carry on the research.

SARM's for the reason that they are 1, unpredictable and 2, not reached their full potential is the reason they are used primarily on animals and not humans even though human inevitably still use them basically because they're like a very, very weak steroid without the side effects it promotes growth and the ability to cut fat but you won't be making inhuman like gains from then.

It's plausible If you can let Stiverne off with the drink thing but maybe a look at the livestock in Russia where he gets this meat from would be worth looking into to further investigate his counter claim.

From my understanding in Mexico they feed livestock steroids. I don't think that is uncommon in many countries. I don't know about Russia...

Google it. They do it to enhance their live stock.

I don't need google to teach me common sense. I can think for on my own.

So if a Mexican boxer gets popped for Clenbuterol which is a favorite of cattle producers in Mexico it at least makes some sense.

Osterine to my knowledge wouldn't be used in cattle because they would use a real steroid like Clenbuterol not a less effective synthetic that is more expensive.

That seems logical.

So I take it that you aren't buying Povetkin's excuse, then?

They inject them to enhance their live stock. Why else would they be doing it? For the hell of it. Google common sense.

Our food supply chain is no different. Hormones, pesticides and other harmful toxins are common in our beef and other animals.

Hell no, I don't like the excuse in general but if you get popped for something that is actually used in the production of livestock and the samples taken are in trace amounts it is at least a viable theory.

Synthetics might be tested on animals but not on livestock, because they already have "good" methods that work with livestock so why mess around with unproven bull**** when you can just use the real thing. Unless Russia wants to say Osterine is of common use on the cattle they produce, and test on their livestock prove that out.

Different countries have different standards when it comes to things. Countries with high levels of poverty (Russia, India, Mexico, etc) are worried about feeding their citizens. Once you get past that point, then you can worry about setting up Whole Foods and trying to eat well.

Have you never been outside of the US?

Sorry Mr. World Traveller. I was just asking a question.
