Some researchers suggest that these changes in glucose metabolism may predispose an individual to atherosclerosis due to increased triglyceride levels. Increases in triglyceride levels may in turn alter cholesterol metabolism, raising cholesterol levels. However, evidence to support this is inconclusive. Cortisol (body's major stress hormone) is also affected by Deca Durabolin steroids, especially oral therapy. They appear to interfere with cortisols breakdown in the liver, leading to increased levels in the serum. This may also predispose one to atherosclerosis, because cortisol has a marked effect on protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.

However, elevated levels of cortisol appear to allow individuals to train harder and longer. Steroids also produce changes in the blood clotting factors (II, V, VII, X), but this remains rather vague in meaning.

In some cases elevation in blood pressure and increased nervous tension are noted. Again, these effects are noted most frequently with oral steroids. These changes may be in part due to fluid and/ or electrolyte level changes.

A number of other side-effects are noted in some patients. A common on ~ is muscle cramps, which have hobbled many athletes. Aggression is a side-effect which many athletes treat as a positive side-effect. Gastrointestinal disorders, headaches, dizziness, and light-headedness are occasional side-effects. Skin rashes, pain at injection site have also been reported. Steroids, evidenced in a depressed PBI, alter thyroid function tests.

Steroid therapy does produce side-effects; however, many of these can be alleviated or avoided if precautions are taken. Vitamin and mineral supplementation should be standard, especially vitamins C, B vitamins and the minerals calcium and iron. These vitamins and minerals are depleted during steroid therapy.

The proper selection of steroids and their usage is strongly advised. From previous sections, we can ascertain that the safest steroids are the injectable forms in most cases such as Deca Durabolin. The increased efficiency and their reduced side-effects make them more desirable than oral products.

In conclusion, we must say that there are many known and unknown risks in steroid use. Dr. F. L. Johnson, of the University of Washington School of Medicine, feels that side-effects may be slight or altogether absent in normal individuals during short-term use. However, long-term effects are still unknown.

Hormone level varies with age as can be noted in The use of 17-ketosteroid excretion is an excellent indication of endogenous hormone production. Peak hormone levels are achieved at approximately 20 to 21 years of age. An approximate 10% drop in hormone level is seen around 30 years of age (corresponding with a 10% drop in B.M.R.) as seen in figure 9B. Another drop of approximately 10% is noted at around 40 and again at 50. Hormone levels in healthy individuals appear to remain stable after 50. Nutrition and hormone levels become critical training factors after 40 years of age (Bass, 1980). A 20% drop in hormone level with a corresponding drop in B.M.R. is noted between the ages of 20 to 40.
