After 18 members of 7 PARA RHA reportedly tested positive for a banned substance, believed to have come from a supplement, the Army's head of personnel strategy says that soldiers who fail their compulsory drugs test will be kicked out of the Forces.

BritishForcesNews says that, to check if your sports supplement has been approved for use, visit the Informed-Sport website at www.informed-sport.com. Advice should also be available through your PTIs.
