Clenbuterol poses significant health risks and may cause adverse effects such as dizziness, headache, and fatigue. Prolonged or excessive consumption may lead to more severe symptoms, including vomiting, syncope, and palpitations. Clenbuterol contains hormonal components; long-term intake by adolescents may trigger precocious puberty. It is essential to maintain a healthy diet—incorporating ample fruits, vegetables, eggs, fish, soy products, and dairy—to support overall health.
