Final answer:
False, Steroid use is only legal when prescribed by a healthcare provider and is banned in professional sports due to health risks and unfair advantages.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement "Steroid use of any kind is legal" is false. Anabolic steroid use is regulated and these substances are only legal when prescribed by a healthcare provider to treat specific medical conditions. In sports, they are banned by all major collegiate and professional sports organizations due to the unfair advantage they give to those who use them, and also because of the significant health risks they pose. These risks include negative effects on cholesterol levels, blood pressure, liver function, heart health, hormone levels, and can increase aggressive behaviors, commonly referred to as "roid-rage".
