Yeah, we know what to do with the good stuff.  8)

According to that article 1 in 106 people in the Netherlands has used steroids.

I don't really think this is true, the actual number of juicers is way lower than that.

I'm Dutch  :D

It sais that in 2001-2005, in a timeframe of 4 years usage in Holland increased with 100%, so usage doubled. While in 1997-2001 usage was decreasing. People are paying more attention to their physiques and/or athletic performance, more people are getting into it so usage is increasing.
