8. Nutritional and Dietary SupplementsDietary Supplements are not well regulated and may cause a positive drug test. As a result, there is not a complete list of banned substances as the market is ever changing. Studies have found 12-25% of Dietary Supplements contain unlisted steroids, stimulants or trace metals(www.drugfreesport.com)Many dietary supplements are contaminated with banned drugs not listed on the labelAny product containing a dietary supplement ingredient is taken at the risk of the student-athleteFor more Information about Supplements and Banned Drugs, consult the Drug Free Sport Axis webpage https://dfsaxis.com/users/login (formerly the Resource Exchange Center)Institutional contact person for information on nutritional and/or dietary supplement use INSERT HERE
