Maybe your English is part of the problem, are you even reading the links you provide? Your reply in post #57 is weak, there is plenty of research out there on meldonium and the stuff you quoted contradicts itself. It's not surprising that the guy who invented it defends it, maybe, just maybe he has a monetary or political interest?
Contradiction:
"According to him, meldonium does not enhance athletic performance in any way, and was rather used by athletes to prevent damage to the heart and muscles caused by lack of oxygen during high-intensity exercise." That's partially because it brings more oxygen to the muscles which is Performance Enhancing! And that's just one example of it's benefits.
And then " Liene Kozlovska, the head of the anti-doping department of the Latvian sports medicine center, rejected claims that the ban is in violation of athletes' rights..."
Of course it has benefits, man.
So does creatine. So does Vitamin C, D and fish oil.
Why not ban them?
Allowing to TRT to guys like Hendo or Belfort and to ban Meldonium is laughable.
TRT gives a shit ton of advantages.
