Many myths surround steroids, some of which may put people off taking them. People often mistakenly confuse steroids, which are routinely prescribed to treat a wide range of conditions, and anabolic steroids, which are often used illegally by some people to increase their muscle mass. Doctor Chris went on ITV’s This Morning on Monday to bust some of the myths.
It’s important to note that steroids can still cause adverse effects, warned Doctor Chris.
Steroids can have “widespread effects” in the body, the TV doc warned.
These include:
- Indigestion
- Heartburn
- Increased appetite
- Weight gain
- Changes in blood sugar.
