“The paradox in the current situation is that
the athletes most likely to be caught by current drug testing procedures are
those who are innocent but ignorant” – Prof Tim Noakes in his foreword to
DrugSportFolio 3 2002 published by Infosource -May 2002. One of the most
pressing and urgent issues in all sport today is the on-going battle to combat
the influence of “Doping” and its associated practices. The taking of
prohibited substances is in many instances inadvertent. It is problematic to
attribute blame to a sports person, doctor, pharmacist or coach. In the current
climate of ‘doping in sport’ there is an increasing awareness and necessity
for everyone interested in this subject, to have easily accessible and reliable
information on what may or may not be taken.
