Supplement warning – Geranamine

A warning about supplements containing Geranamine was issued by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES). Geranamine is a concentrated extract of Geranium oil and is credited with stimulant and fat-burning properties.

A constituent of Geranamine is methylhexanamine which is categorised as an S6 prohibited stimulant under the World Anti-Doping Code. Athletes testing positive to this stimulant potentially face serious penalties, ranging from a warning to a two-year ban for a first offense.
