Human Growth Hormone is one of several endocrine
hormones, like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone that
decline in production with age. While many of these hormones
can be replaced to deter some of the effects of aging, growth
hormone goes far beyond the effect of any one of these hormones
to not only retard biological aging, but also to significantly
reverse many of the effects of aging. Researchers have proven
growth hormone therapy can reverse the biological effects
of aging by as much as 20 years with less than one year
of treatment.
The use of growth hormone has been increasing in popularity,
due of course to the numerous benefits associated with use.
To begin with, GH stimulates growth in most body tissues,
primarily due to increases in cell number rather than size.
This includes skeletal muscle tissue, and with the exception
of eyes and brain all other body organs. The transport of
amino acids is also increased, as is the rate of protein
synthesis. Growth hormone itself also stimulated triglyceride
hydrolysis in adipose tissue, usually producing notable
fat loss during treatment, GH also increases glucose output
in the liver, and induces insulin resistance by blocking
the activity of this hormone in target cells. A shift is
seen where fats become a more primary source of fuel, further
enhancing body fat loss. Its growth promoting effect also
seems to strengthen connective tissues, cartilage and tendons.
This effect should reduce the susceptibility to injury and
increase strength.
For athletes HGH has numerous special benefits associated
with its use. Much of the muscular gain is due to an increase
in the number of cells rather than the size. The transport
of amino acid is increased, as is rate of protein synthesis.
HGH also increases glucose in the liver. And induces insulin
resistance by blocking the activity of this hormone in target
cells. This results in a more muscular, leaner physic.
Some of the beneficial effects of Human Growth Hormone
include:
- Increase in energy and muscular strength
- Increase in the size and functions of all internal organs,
reversing age related shrinking and dysfunction
- Improved memory and mentation
- Reduction in body fat by 16% on average within 6 months
- Increase in muscle mass by 9% on average within 6 months
- Stronger, harder bones
- Smoother, softer, more moist and resilient skin
- Thicker, more lustrous, healthier hair sometimes with
return of youthful color
- Lowering of high blood pressure
- Increase in sexual interest and performance in both
men and women
- Reduction or elimination of osteoarthritic pain and
immobility
- Elevated mood and improved sense of well-being
- Improve memory and mental clarity
- Decreased LDL/bad cholesterol and increased HDL/good
cholesterol for improved cardiovascular function
- A reduction in insulin resistance in non-diabetic individuals
- An overall reversal of many aging effects by as much
as two decades
