Actovegin reportedly is “essentially half calf’s blood extract” and the product listing describes it as a drug that, “produces an organ-unrelated increase of the cellular energy metabolism”.

Galea is the sports medicine specialist who helped Woods recover following knee surgery in June 2008. Galea flew down to Orlando Florida on four occasions to treat Woods with platelet therapy.

Human growth hormones will be the next shoe to drop. Gary Player said there was steroid use on the tour. Tiger Woods has become the "Mike Tyson" of the PGA. How sad is that !!!!
