(HealthDayNews) -- If you eat a ham sandwich for lunch, just hope that your office doesn't spring a random drug test when you get back. You're likely to fail.
According to Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, a ham sandwich may be enough to show a positive test for androgens, which are male sex hormones that are banned in some sports.
When three volunteers ate 10 ounces each of pork from an uncastrated boar, their urine samples showed positive tests for androgen supplements within 10 hours of the meal. The values returned to normal a day later.
