Performance Enhancing Chinese Meat

MeatChinese athletes are facing a real problem as the London 2012 Olympics approach. Vast amounts of meat are contaminated with clenbuterol. So all Chinese Olympians are banned from eating meat.

“Now the only place that we could eat safely turns out to be our cafeteria.” Lu Yong, Beijing Olympics men’s 85kg weightlifting champion tweeted on his Sina Weibo. “It’s a disaster for athletes as the prohibited substance in over 52% of the meat products in Beijing has exceeded the drug test standard.”
