It’s Legal to Inject Your Body With Botulism, But Not Steroids

July 1st, 2009 . by Administrator

Don’t remember exaclty where I heard the conversation, but I’ve been pondering it and recently posed the question on my Facebook page: why is it perfectly legal for an individual, who wants to look younger, pretty and feel better about him/herself, to inject a toxin into his/her body…but in most cases, it is illegal for an individual to inject him/herself with steroids or other “performance enhancement” supplements for the same purpose.

Why is it that someone who uses something naturally occuring to improve him/herself, to feel better about him/herself, etc., is labeled a pariah, a cheater, etc.; but people are far more forgiving towards people who inject a dangerous toxin to do the same?
