I have a question in which maybe Hamish, Alex, or Komoto Senseis can answer because this issue was addressed in "Kendo World, Issue 1".

Have there been any studies or white papers, conclusive or otherwise that have been performed on degree of usage (demographics, sex, level of competition, etc.) and the [for lack of a better word] Positive (performance ehancement) and Negative effects of anabolic steroids or agents in Kendo?

I ask this because in recent news a steroid scandal has emerged in which many top athletes, including Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, and Shane Mosley have been subpoenaed to testify before a grand jury investigating the nutritional supplement company at the center of the unfolding case.
