Hey,
The synthetic/man made compounds debate is true, long term results are still unknown though, but it's been around a while.(sounds familiar ?
) Just the same, I'd still prefer to use a good Willow tea, or the like, to get rid of the head ache that the Traction Compund would give me. Way Too much tea will give ya cramps, unlike the modern derivative. A little too much ASA will kill you.
(As for vitamins and minerals, give me real fruits and vegetables any day, but this is way off topic.)
Just the same, I think the toxicity point has been made, (over and over and over again) and it's finally getting or gotten noticed, I hope. Now, what's going to be done about it? and how long is it going to take? Martin has moved out of racing, will it take more to get the problem acted on?
(I for one am thinking twice about bringing any little ones out to big race days, just myself perhaps)
