My story tonight centered around the FDA’s announcement to stop taking the product Hydroxycut. I went to a gym in Hollywood and interviewed several people about the product, and was surprised when at least three of them told me they will continue to use it. They even said, “We will get it from overseas if need be.” These people weren’t muscle-heads. In fact, one was an average female, the other a male trainer.
What are people thinking? The FDA says the product likely causes liver damage, and a 19 year old likely died from using it. I guess it’s the same reason people smoke cigarettes, do drugs, drink alcohol in excess, and expose themselves to other risk factors without thinking of the consequences. Even worse, they think about the consequences, but don’t care. (Myself not excluded here.)
