MESO-Rx Exclusive Untold Jewish History of Anabolic Steroids

[Millard]

My latest article is about Jews, Nazis and Anabolic Steroids. Let me know what you think:

Steroids are bad. Very bad. And what better way to demonize steroids than to link them to evil, Nazi doctors?! Schutz-Staffel soldiers were allegedly injected with steroids to increase their aggressiveness before battle in Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany. Anything associated with Nazi Germany has been considered sinister and malicious. Steroids are no exception.

The association has conveniently demonized the entire class of hormones. The problem with the Nazi-steroid connection is that it, like much anti-steroid propaganda, is not true. Furthermore, the myth of Nazi steroids has had the unfortunate effect of overshadowing the significant role played by Jewish chemists and entrepreneurs in the history and development of anabolic steroids. Jewish researchers arguably made a greater number contributions in the field than their Nazi-funded German counterparts.

Very interesting ..

Who invented Cheque Drops?

I bet they would be very helpful on
the battle-field.

I`m surprised to learn that the Nazzis didnt exploit the potential to any degree of effectiveness.
The Jews were the educated and wealthy class at the time, there, werent they? Why do so many hate the Jews? I can see blaming it on the Nazzies. Thats just plain good marketing.
Are you sure you arent going to start to start a movement aiming to blame it on the Jews?
Near as I can tell you, you sure know your history.

I could explain to you why people hate jews generally speaking in history. but that would take several pages of me try to cover jewish history to b able to explain it. taking history class on zionism or the history of israel and it might give u a clue.

 

[whitegato777]

Ive never heard of the nazis using steroids but I have heard of hitler and his soldiers using forms of meth as a performance enhancers. it was developed by japanese scientists and given to hitler from what I've heard.

 

[billydidit]

It's like saying anyone who uses a gun is EVIL just because someone developed and used bullets that only kill children. It's just not true. You can't demonize something just because someone else abused it.

Quite ironic that the Jews played such a big part in the development of roids...nice slap in the face to people who claim steroids are a Nazi invention.

I did read that Nazi's may have used DNP in concentration camps to keep people from freezing, but I would think that would be untrue because of the effects of DNP (weight loss, low energy, etc.) Anyone know about this?

Well informed article

Although, after seeing how many times your typed "Jew", I got a bit bored.
Frankly, I do not care how the product was "created" and who was responsible. Seems to me like you have something against a particular "race". A little subjective.

But hey, what do I know, right?

This was a concern that I had about writing the article. Taking a demonized substance and attributing it to a group that has been historically discriminated against, especially by taking credit away from the Nazis, could create the wrong perception.

I tried to title the article in such a way that made my intentions clear. Obviously, I think anabolic steroids are amazing compounds.

We should stop demonizing steroids and start celebrating steroids.

Similarly, we should stop blaming Nazis for them and celebrate the inventors of these compounds.

The people involved in the creation of various anabolic steroids deserve credit and recognition and should be proud of the discoveries.

Rather than reinforce any anti-semitism, I hoped to create a positive portrayal.

Given the positive associations with steroids generally held within the bodybuilding community, I had hoped this clearly would be the case.

I think its just the gap between using for medical purposes and performance benefits, certain medical views opposing and compiling views against using medicines to increase performance

The truth about the remarkable achievements in the field of medicinal chemistry does not support your point of view.

 

[BlackJack]

Well, yet again it seems Jews invented everything. Good I'm glad. Truth is that even if the germans were to invent steroids and use them for war I'd still greet them with open hands. Nevertheless, it's a fine article, great research. Bravo.

Thanks!

The issue isn't who invented them, it's the stigma attached to steroids by society that is the problem.

 

[Wiscon]

Yes, very interesting article.The presentation of facts never needs justification. The prohibition and demonization of steroids is just another example of kneejerk over reaction by the throng of ignorant lobbyist liplocked dilettantes we've put in charge of riding herd over us, aided and abetted by an equally uninformed media that wouldn't announce that water is wet without proper marching orders . But don't get me started....

why not blame most of modern warfare of the chinese. didnt they invent gun powder.
why give dnp to jews in death camps. i never got the impression that keeping them from freezing was important. quite the oppisite. and wouldnt giant ovens prevent that anyway. fucking animals.

 

[ergomaniac]

whos them people. iran would bomb them if they could. remember. jesus was a jew.
then again it is interesting why a jewish state is so supported. in an area thats doesnt want them. by people not living there. in the u.s. seperation of state and religion and is sacred. to me it is. third party interpretation of the word god is dangerous. whos god is right.

 

[ergomaniac]

Thanks!

The issue isn't who invented them, it's the stigma attached to steroids by society that is the problem.

the stigma attached to steroids and other performance enhancing drugs is baffling to say the least. i dont get it and never will. and seems to be the only area where progress is condemned. warfare is butt ugly on its prettiest day. but seems to be well tolerated. almost celebrated. technology to kill advancing daily. violence is evil incarnate. it goes against any religious teaching. and drags us all down. as human beings. condemning chemicals without accounting for those who use or abuse them makes no sense. as if there no accountability. it was the drugs. no one blames explosives or automatic weapons for the slaughter. and try to regulate gun ownership in this country and some people will shit a brick. its my right they scream. introduce some hormones into the body and youre a cheat, criminal or worse. unless your drugs are called medicine.
society needs to get over this. fast. or be content with mediocrity. the possibilties seem almost endless. if it werent for the weak, scared or misinformed. or just plain corrupt. who seem to hold way to much influence. democracy is nice. everyone has an opinion. whos holds the most value. in the same way scientists arent politicians. politicians arent scientists.

Interesting article. Just more anti-drug propaganda. If it weren't for WWII we'd probably be like we were in the 1950's technologically and medically. Unfortunately the one of the only good things that comes out of a destroy or be destroyed war like that is huge jumps in the advancement of all type of tech. I'm sure if the nazi solders were on juice then as soon as we discovered this we probably tried doing the same thing. They also took speed. We used similar stimulants and so did the japanese. They paved the way for synthetic painkillers and came up with methadone when morphine started to run out. Desperate times call for desperate measures. The nazis were let their scientists run with it. And being in a them vs the world (or allies anyway) situation they needed any and every edge they could get. Chemicals aren't good or bad there just chemical compounds that have certain effects and side effects. It's comical to me when they're given personalities and affiliations. Way too much propaganda everywhere.

 

[HeadDoc]

continuing on in history to the post WWII era, the Germans were systematic in the use of steroids with their athletes.
