World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Bans Oxygen Use in Athletes
I varas overvagde WADA att forbjuda O2. Det intressanta ar att detta ar accepterat i klattring men inte i annan idrott. Det sager val allt om alla som gjort nagot och havdat rekord hit och dit.
"Bottled or canned oxygen use has been officially banned from training and competitions in any sport governed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
According to WADA guidelines, bottled or canned oxygen in considered a Prohibited Method under Section M1: Enhancement of oxygen transfer: "Artificially enhancing the uptake, transport or delivery of oxygen is prohibited." Based on this section, any device that supplies oxygen and fulfills any of these criteria is a prohibited method in sport.
By citing this Section M1 ruling, WADA is categorizing bottled or canned oxygen along with potentially dangerous oxygen delivering methods like blood doping, perfluorocarbons, efaproxiral (RSR13) and modified haemoglobin products. From a risk assessment standpoint alone, this comparison is VERY unreasonable. Oxygen has been safely used in medical treatment for decades, whereas the other methods specifically cited by this rule are known to have potentially serious side effects."
