Spawn sold by Myogenix is synthetic steroid

Dietary supplements companies frequently label synthetic steroids as dietary supplements. So, they sell these illegal preparations. They deceive the Drug Enforcement Administration and customers that buy such preparations. As a result, several athletes test positive for prohibited substances while they are sure that they have never used any steroid or another prohibited medicine. Dietary supplements companies must be blamed for such situations.
For example, Myogenix is a dietary supplement company which is located in California. This company acknowledged that they sold a synthetic steroid that was labeled as a dietary supplement. It was called Spawn. It was composed of the following ingredients: 19-Norandrosta-4,9 diene-3,17 dione and 2a,3a-epithio-17a-methyletioallocholanol. Thus, the supplement Spawn contained 2 steroids but it was labeled as a dietary supplement.
Myogenix acknowledged that they had sold Spawn between 2007 and 2009. Myogenix was ordered to pay a fine of $500.000. Moreover, the company forfeited $100.000 immediately.
According to the decision of the court, products produced and sold by the company Myogenix will be tested for 5 years by an independent organization. All new nutrition supplements should be tested carefully and approved by the FDA before the company will be allowed to sell them.
Actually, Myogenix should be thankful to the lawyer Rick Collins who has defended the company. He defended the owners and other stuff of the company effectively. Nobody went to jail. This lawyer was hired to defend also other companies that were linked to the website Bodybuilding.com. These companies also were sentenced only to fines and money seizures.
