UFC-fightern Rachael Ostovich har testat positivt för flera olika otillåtna preparat. Stängs av i ett år.
Kontaminerad kosttillskott
Det var under fredagen som USADA meddelade att den 29-årige Rachael Ostovich testade positivt i samband med en dopningskontroll i början av januari 2020. Ämnena ska Ostovich ha fått i sig via kontaminerad kosttillskott vilket USADA bekräftade. Med det som bakgrund reducerades hennes straff till endast ett år, istället för 2år.
Då Ostovich var avstängd under 4 månader 2019 i väntan på besked för ett annat dopningstest, reducerades hennes straff nu till endast 8 månader. Vilket innebär att hon kan tävla i början av augusti.
USADA announced today that Rachael Ostovich-Berdon, of Waianae, Hawaii, has accepted a one-year sanction for her violation of the UFC® Anti-Doping Policy (UFC ADP) but has received a four-month credit to her sanction due to time served under a provisional suspension in the latter half of 2019 for an atypical finding that was being investigated by USADA and which did not result in a sanction once the 2019 UFC ADP was announced, making her total period of ineligibility eight months.
Ostovich-Berdon, 29, tested positive for ostarine and GW1516 (also known as GW-501516) metabolites GW1516 sulfone and GW1516 sulfoxide as the result of a urine sample collected out-of-competition on January 3, 2020. Ostarine is a non-Specified Substance in the class of Anabolic Agents and GW1516 is a non-Specified Substance in the category of Hormone and Metabolic Modulators. These substances are prohibited at all times under the UFC ADP and UFC Prohibited List.
