In 2003, Taylor E. Hooton, a 17-year old high school student from Plano, TX, took his own life as a result of using anabolic steroids. His family established the Taylor Hooton Foundation to educate youth and adult influencers on the dangers of anabolic steroids, human growth hormone (HGH), dietary supplements, and other Appearance and Performance Enhancing Substances. In this episode, Taylor’s brother, Don Hooton Jr., talks about Taylor and his life, the foundation’s work, and the challenges of keeping performance enhacing drugs away from high schoolers in a social media age.
