Hello all, i just have a quick question... i have read some posts on other websites that Nitro-Tech can give you a false positive on a drug test. Has anybody hear heard this also? I was just curious if it was true or not.

Thanks

You're right, Robert, it's not supposed to have pro hormones in it. But, there was an issue about 2 months ago where an NFL player tested positive for some sort of T booster. He swore that the only supplement he was on was Nitro Tech. When they tested it, the Nitro Tehch was positive for Andro. This is one of the primary reasons that the US Senate has taken up the bill to make Pro-Hormones a Schedule Three substance.

Nitro-tech does not contain any precursive hormones...it is merely a whey protein complex. Therefore you will never test positive for drugs...

That is amazing...I don't even see anything in the listed ingredients that would mimic andro. They must've mixed their batches of Nortesten with some Nitro Tech...that would be the only way that could happen.

You're right, Robert, there isn't anything listed on the label, that's why they're in trouble. It is alledged that they added it in there to help increase gains, and sales as well. This isn't the first time a supplement company has done something like this; just that Muscle Tech may have gotten caught...
