Abstract: | The Crime Survey for England and Wales estimates that around 60,000 people are using steroids to gain muscle, to become leaner and fitter, or to get stronger. But academics and experts who work with steroid users believe the real figure is much higher - probably in the hundreds of thousands. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | The Conversation, v.Health + Medicine | Publisher: | The Conversation Media Group Ltd | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 2201-5639 1441-8681 |
