I have read that steriods can cause it, but I think they are refering to cortical steriods, prednesone and the like. I have always thought excersize and roids would develop bone build up. I take my calcium, mag and zinc everyday. Any one know about this?    | ||

yes, the report you read was referring to cortico steroids. anabolics have the opposite effect. btw, cholesterol is a steroid and is neither anabolic or catabolic. steroids are very broad ranges of chemicals where the carbons are arranged in a highly symmetrical and repetitive pattern of rings. it's much broader than just anabolic and catabolic. | ||
