Jeff Novitzky fields dozens of questions from the 500-plus fighters on the UFC roster on a weekly basis. That is a significant part of the job for the promotion's vice president of athlete health and performance.
The bulk of those e-mails, text messages and phone calls revolve around one thing: dietary supplements. Almost every athlete in the UFC takes them in some form or another. With the UFC's new anti-doping program led by USADA, supplements have come under the microscope.
"Of the inquiries that I get during the week from fighters -- and I get a lot of them -- 75 percent of them are on supplements," Novitzky told MMA Fighting.
