The National Anti-Doping Agency(NADA) is the national organization responsible for promoting, coordinating, and monitoring the doping control program in sports
Drugs, narcotics or anabolic steroids, are harmful for health, except when required for medical treatment. Don't fall into the trap of doping for building your body or just to be in a circle. Ignorance shall be no excuse, be it a sportsperson or a film star.
