well steroids in health supplements are a danger to your health.now the first thing is why at all are you using these health supplements.these products are used by bodybuilders and people who are very keen in having good muscles.if you are using these just to good health then i would be better not to use such things.

Hi

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

If you are sure that these supplements have steroids , you should find out the proportion and amount of steroids present.Very minimal concentration of steroids will help in improving body function than causing side effects.
Please visit a Chemist and request a detailed report on these products.If found to have steroids in high concentrations , you should definitely stop using them.

Take care.
