Unethical Alterations of Oxygen-Carrying Capacity in Endurance Athletes

J Stray-Gundersen

Some developments in the fields of physiology and medicine have had direct impact on athletic performance. These include the synthesis of anabolic steroids, the development of carbohydrate loading, the importance of adequate hydration, and the procedure of "blood doping." Most of these discoveries were made in the cours of attempting to understand basic physiology or treating patients and were not initially directed toward enhancing athletic performance The procedure of transfusing athletes is such a case.
