Critically important warning from ASADA regarding positive tests

Published Thu 10 Aug 2017

In just over a year, 13 Australian athletes from nine different sports have tested positive to Higenamine, which is prohibited both in and out of competition.

 

Higenamine is often listed on the ingredient label of the supplements, however this is not always the case.

As such, ASADA is reiterating its warning around the risk of supplements, as well as ways to help reduce that risk.

 

To do that, ASADA have published a blog specifically about Higenamine, which includes the names of supplements known to cause positives, and have made several posts on their Facebook and Twitter accounts.
