Alcohol vs. Steriods which is more dangerous

[Scruf]

So, I have been having a debate with some of my friends regarding Alcohol vs. Steroid use. The question is which is worse for your body and longevity. Let's assume that the Steroid use is done properly and never exceeds 500mgs a week for blasts and 200mgs a week for cruise. Compared to drinking 6-8 alcoholic beverages a day, 5-6 days a week. What does everyone think? I will start with my vote...... Alcohol is worse.

Comparing the potential harm of alcohol and steroid use involves complex considerations. Both substances can negatively impact physical and mental health when misused. Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to liver damage, cardiovascular problems, addiction, and mental health issues, shortening lifespan. Steroid misuse, if not managed properly, can also harm the body, with risks including cardiovascular issues, liver damage, and mental health effects. While steroids are not typically associated with physical addiction, some may develop psychological dependence. You're not comparing apples to apples more like apples to oranges here.

Alcohol is so bad, its disgusting, something that will destroy your life while steroids will improve your life if done properly. Alcohol will still destroy your life even if done properly

In this particilar scenario youve asked
Alcohol is worse.
Very little doubt in my mind when it comes the health effects

Thats not altogether true
I dont drink but i know plenty of people who moderatly drink and are highly effective both at work and home, over the span of decades

Alocohol is obviously farm more dangerous in genea due to its addictive qualities that can turn moderation into abuse.

But not altogether evil

Its completely irrelevant, moderately drinking is the same as being addicted to alcohol, a majority of people are. American was built by alcoholics. Alcohol is a poison, steroids are not. Alcohol is no way shape or form a drug in any sense of the word. It is a flammable poison and the only purpose it serves is as a disinfectant. Alcohol destroys your testosterone, growth hormone and brain. Alcohol is for losers. Your losing when you drink alcohol and gain nothing. If you need to drink to enjoy social situations then you are simply a symptom of a sick society. Alcohol is the worst thing you can ingest. Great that you don't drink bro. More power to you brother

True except alcohol is a drug. A very powerful drug.

Perhaps you'd like to create a more specific scenario? I mean, 6-8 drinks of what? What about concomitant behaviors? What the heck does using steroids the right way even mean?

Also, why does the steroid user get to vary his dosage? This is all so sloppy.

The concept of my post was not to be too specific. The question is whether alcohol consumption at 6-8 drinks an evening vs. sterioid use, It's not complicated nor does it lack specifics, and it is not sloppy.

Done the right way means that you are getting your blood work done regularly and are monitoring your key markers, and taking the proper medications to mitigate side effects like estrogen, FSH, Cholesterol etc. In my case, I have a HRT doctor that monitors all of my blood work.

 

[JeffroCat]

Holy smokes. Yeah. It is complicated. And yeah it does lack specifics. You don't even bother to specify what you mean by drinks ffs. 6-8 drinks of beer? Wine? Whiskey? Gasoline? What volume of alcohol? How much alcohol by volume?

You say alcohol is worse but don't even bother to explain why? How are you having this so called debate tith your friends without being specific about anything.

Also, you put people who disagree with you in a position to have to defend drinking. Which is weird thing to have to do.

How is your example in any way equivalent?
Alcoholism will kill you,drinking a lot will shave years off your life as will "Steroids done right"

So you believe that steroids, no matter how you take them, will shave years off your life?

I probably could have left my opinion on the debate out of it. The question really comes down to which is worse for your body physiologically. Add all the caveats to your answer as you feel are necessary.

Alcohol is helluva drug though.

Your question is both vague and biased. And it's both of those things on purpose. It's almost like you want people to piss on alcohol so you can feel better about yourself for abusing steroids.

6-8 drinks per night is alcoholism

Hello, I'm an alcoholic, and AAS user.

Alcohol will taint everything you touch. Everything.

I've never wrecked a car during a blast of hormones.

My comments were neither vague nor biased, don't overcomplicate a simple question to justify your consumption. Maybe you should have a meeting with the man in the mirror.

Are you really insinuating this guy's motives and accusing him of these based solely on his post? You're a moron, good grief. Must have come from reddit along with 99% of the other newcomers.
