Please tell me if it is acceptable for my husband to give our son protein shake and steroids?

Protien shakes maybe: But steroids no. Also what age is the son? Why does your husband feels he needs to have steroids? You should talk it over with your pcp or the kids pediatrician. Good luck ; happy holidays!

I'd discourage roids: I'm glad Dad and Son are doing bodybuilding together. It's a wonderful gift they can give themselves and each other. Protein shakes are great, and generally the healthy eating habits of bodybuilders are good to teach. Illegal steroid use is wrong, cheating & guys I've known who've tried it are usually sorry; but it is widespread & perhaps Dad wants to supervise Son's use in a shady area.
