How Anabolic Steroids Came For Human Being?
It was in the late 1930s when the substances, popularly known as anabolic steroids were first developed for the treatment of hypogonadism, which is incompetence of the gonads, especially due to low production of testosterone in males. Hypogonadism is the condition in which male testes do not produce sufficient testosterone for normal growth, development, and sexual functioning. It results in deficient development of secondary sex characteristics and in prepubertal males, a body with long legs and a short trunk.

Where do anabolic steroids come from?
The body produces testosterone naturally, but natural testosterone cannot be used as a medicine. In the normal body, testosterone is released continuously into the bloodstream by the pituitary gland. In males, it is also released by the testes. It reaches different parts of the body, has its effects, and then body enzymes quickly break it down.

Oxandrolone Part 2
Another reason for Oxandrolone's popularity is that this compound does not aromatize in any dosage into estrogen. So, the muscle system does not get the typical watery appearance as with many steroids, making it ideal for the preparation for a competition. In preparatory stages it is especially important to keep the estrogen level as low as possible since estrogen programs for storing water even if the diet is calorie-reduced. In combination with a diet, Oxandrolone helps make and keep the muscles hard and ripped.

Ephedrine
Ephedrine is a sympathomimetic drug and not a hormone compound. It offers athletes three distinct advantages in spite of not being a hormone compound. Ephedrine has clear fat burning characteristics. This occurs since Ephedrine produces heat in the body (thermogenesis). Simplified, Ephedrine slightly increases the body temperature so that the body burns more calories than usual. Ephedrine also stimulates the thyroid gland to transform the weaker LT-4 (L-thyroxine) into the stronger LT-3 (liothyronine), thus accelerating the metabolism. This fat burning effect, with the additional intake of both methylzanthine caffeine and aspirin, can almost be doubled. Scientific research has shown that the combination of 25 mg Ephedrine, 200mg caffeine, and 300 mg aspirin is ideal to produce a synergetic effect. This combination, three times daily, approximately 30 minutes prior to a meal, will significantly burn fat. Competing bodybuilders have appreciated this for quite some time.
