Jag har ätit ett kosttillskott som jag fått av Lokes kostexpert, säger Fritz på IOK:s presskonferens i Sydney under söndagen. Fritz riskerar avstängning i två år om även B-provet visar positivt."
- Arbetarbladet: Norske landslagsläkaren förnekar godkännande: 2 oktober 2000
"Fritz Aanes hävdar att han fått kosttillskottet Pyruvat 500 godkänt av den norske läkaren Tor-Öistein Endsjö under ett träningsläger i Australien. Det förnekas nu av Endsjö."
- Aftenposten: Gikk ikke god for innholdet: 2 oktober 2000
"Det sier lege Thor-Øystein Endsjø, som har fått sterk kritikk av toppidrettssjef Bjørge Stensbøl fordi han ikke fjernet den boksen med kosttilskudd som Fritz Aanes har benyttet, og som bryteren mener må være årsaken til den positive dopingprøven."
- Expressen: Svensk tränare anklagad i dopingskandal:
"Den norske brottaren Fritz Aanes har åkt fast för doping. Och skyller på – Anders Lindqvist i Gävle. – Jag blev närmast chockad när jag hörde det här, säger den svenske brottningstränaren till OS2000.
Substansen som spårats i urinen heter 19-nor-androstenon och tillhör nandrolonfamiljen. Fritz Aanes hävdar att han fått i sig substansen genom kosttillskottet Pyruvat.

Man ska vara oerhört försiktig och jag rekommenderar ingen att använda preparaten, säger Mats Garle, chef på dopningslaboratoriet på Huddinge sjukhus.
- Ekstra Bladet: Kosttilskuddet var skurken: 20 oktober
"Meget tyder på, at den norske bryder Fritz Aanes, der under OL i Sydney fik taget en positiv dopingprøve, fik det forbudte stof nandrolon i blodet efter indtagelse af kosttilskuddet Pyruvate."
- Fremover: Fritz gråt av glede: 21 oktober 2000
"Det ble en beveget telefonsamtale mellom Are Johnsen og Fritz Aanes i går ettermiddag, da svaret fra laboratoriet som hadde analysert kosttilskuddet Pyrovate, kom. – Du er fullstendig renvasket, Fritz, meldte hans advokat og medhjelper etter at Köln-laboratoriet kunne rapportere om nandrolon-funn i kosttilskuddet."
- Aftenposten: NIF-generalsekretær Ivar Egeberg frykter PR'en kosttilskudd har fått: 6 november 2000
"Vi har en viktig jobb å gjøre når vi skal informere norsk ungdom om kosthold. Jeg er redd for den PR kosttilskudd har fått.
Det sier generalsekretær i Norges Idrettsforbund, Ivar Egeberg. Han vil styrke NIFs informasjonsside etter den siste månedens dopingdebatt i kjølvannet av kostholdstilskudd-fadesene til Stian Grimseth og Fritz Aanes i OL."

"Fritz Aanes fick ingen strafflindring av Internationella brottningsförbundet, FILA. Dopningsavstängningen på två år står fast. - Det är ett justitiemord. Bara en av FILA-representanterna hade satt sig in i saken, dundrar Are Johnsen, Fritz advokat, som nu tänker driva ärendet vidare."
- Arbetarbladet: Fritz Aanes kämpar vidare: 9 december 2000
"30 miljoner kronor. Det är summan som Fritz Aanes tillsammans med sin advokat kommer att stämma det amerikanska företaget som tillverkat det kosttillskott som Fritz tog innan OS och som fick honom fälld för dopning."
- Gefle Dagblad: Fritz stämmer företag på 30 miljoner: 9 december

Företaget tillverkar kosttillskottet Pyuruvat som Aanes använde inför OS i Sydney för att gå ner i vikt. Det som visade sig innehålla spår av det förbjudna preparatet nandrolon. Aanes fråntogs sin fjärdeplats och skickades hem från OS."
