The Lithuanian Anti-Doping Agency, reacting to the public comments made by disqualified athlete Ieva Adomavi\u010di\u016bt\u0117 and her representatives regarding the influence of food products on a positive doping control test, would like to inform you that these are only unsubstantiated and unproven defences of the athlete.<\/div>\n
No prohibited substances have been found in the foods the athlete claims to have eaten. The wild ginger that the athlete refers to, which may contain banned substances, is a completely different plant from the one most of us consume on a daily basis and is not even used in Lithuania. And most people's favourite ginger or green tea does not contain any banned substances.<\/div>\n
Nevertheless, we always urge athletes to be cautious when using various herbal preparations or supplements from Eastern countries and it is best to avoid them, as it is the athlete's responsibility to take care of what goes into his\/her system.<\/div>\n
The higenamine found in the athlete's sample is commonly found in pre-training and weight loss supplements.<\/div>\n
In addition, a few years ago, the World Anti-Doping Agency even set a threshold for the presence of higenamine in a sample at which laboratories report a positive doping control test, helping athletes to reduce the risk of accidentally getting a positive doping control test when using certain products.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
