Bodybuilding.com, LLC announced today that it is conducting a voluntary nationwide and international recall of all lots and expiration dates of 65 dietary supplement products that were sold through the Company's website, www.BodyBuilding.com, because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) believes that the Recalled Products contain ingredients that are steroids.
The FDA has advised BodyBuilding.com LLC, of Boise, ID, that it believes the Recalled Products may contain the following ingredients that are currently classified, or the FDA believes should be classified, as steroids: "Superdrol," "Madol," "Tren," "Androstenedione," and/or "Turinabol."
The BodyBuilding.com, LLC press release says, “While the Company has not had an opportunity to independently confirm the FDA's concerns that the Recalled Products in fact contain these ingredients, the Company is undertaking this voluntary recall in an abundance of caution.” The Company denied they had received any reports of adverse events in connection with the Recalled Products.
The BodyBuilding.com Recall Press Release was available on the FDA website, but notice of the recall could not be found on BodyBuilding.com’s home page or elsewhere on the company website.
The FDA warns that acute liver injury is known to be a possible harmful effect of using steroid-containing products. In addition, steroids may cause other serious long-term adverse health consequences in men, women and children. These include shrinkage of the testes and male infertility, masculinization of women, breast enlargement in males, short stature in children, a higher predilection to misuse other drugs and alcohol, adverse effects on blood lipid levels, and increased risk of heart attack, stroke and death.
