Grow Younger With Human Growth Hormone Releaser Supplement?

Since my article "Lose Weight Gain Muscles With Human Growth Hormones" was published, I have received many emails asking about the scientific and research findings of this seemingly "miracle antidote for anti aging." So is it true that supplementing with human growth hormones releasers can make us look and feel younger? These questions compelled me to do further research on the subject and here are more findings.

The human growth hormone (hgh) was first discovered in the mid 1950s and its structure was only identified in 1972.

Before 1998 when artificial synthetic HGH molecules were genetically engineered (steroids) and made available, hgh compounds were at that time extracted from cadavers and injected into the human body as HGH replacement therapy. Scary huh?

Since then, there have been hundreds clinical research and studies investigating the capabilities and supposed benefits of hgh. The scientific and medical communities is in agreement that one of the main causes of the aging process (dying process?) is the decrease of human growth hormone production as we age.

A President of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, Dr. Ronald Klatz, M.D once said, "The Aging process appears to be due in large part to the drastic decline of growth hormone in the body after adulthood."

According to some human growth hormone research, the normal level of circulating HGH is about 10 mg per deciliter of blood in our early 20s but this level drop rapidly as we age and by the time we are 60 or so, the level will decrease by as much as 80% to only 2 milligrams per deciliter. Is it any wonder why we age so rapidly after 60?

It is now known that this growth hormone is what grow and repair our cells, bones, muscles and internal organs. It is also well established that the declining level of human growth hormones is the factor that slowly robs us of our youth and vitality because by the age of 30, the natural secretion rate of HGH in our bodies drop by about 14% per decade.

Going by this simple fact, by the time we turn 80, we would barely be able to produce enough growth hormones to repair a bruise on our toe! This thus explains why injuries on older people take a much longer time to heal, that is, if they do get healed.

In my profession as a fitness personal trainer, this is more evident to me as I am able to observe the workout recovery rate, muscle growth and weight loss effect on my clients first hand across the ages.

My younger clients are invariably (except for exceptional circumstances) able to recover faster from their weight training, lose weight faster and build muscle mass more effectively than my older clients. Of course this is not surprising although now we know why that is so.

The New England Journal of Medicine first published the clinical findings of Daniel Rudman, MD, regarding his HGH human growth hormone research on the anti-aging effects of HGH when he studied his research subjects of 61 to 81 year olds at the Medical College of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

After six months, Dr. Rudman observed a reversal of the aging process of 10 to 20 years in the patients who received HGH injections. This amzing fact meant that human beings can now reverse their biological age!

As for the group who did not receive hgh injections, the normal aging process continued as per normal.

Dr Rudman's study also noted the amazing effects of HGH therapy on obese people between the ages of 61 and 80. The study subjects did not change their eating or exercise habits. The results are that those who were treated with HGH replacement therapy lost an average of almost 15% of their body fat and at the same time gaining an average of 8.8% lean muscle mass.

Their skin also became firmer and they further experienced increase in bone density. This discovery took the weight loss, bodybuilding and weight lifting industry by storm!

More clinical research studies performed over the past few decades further confirmed that hgh can allow users to lose fat, build muscle mass, improve sexual performance, remove wrinkles, get rid of man breast, reduce cellulite, grow taller and increase immune function. In other words, the fountain of youth may have been discovered!

"The effects of six months of human growth hormone on lean body mass and adipose-tissue were equivalent in magnitude to the changes incurred during 10-20 years of aging." reported Daniel Rudman.

A study of growth hormone replacement therapy in the elderly published in March 1992, V.A. Medical Center and Department of Medicine, Stanford University Medical Center stated that "It is possible that chronic physiologic GH and or IGF-I replacement therapy might reverse (or prevent) some of these "inevitable" health problems of aging."

"Replacement therapy with Growth Hormone has shown beneficial/normalizing effect on parameters such as cardiac and renal function, thyroid hormone metabolism, bone metabolism, sweat secretion, total and regional fuel metabolism and psychological well being..." - Dr. Jorgensen and Dr. Christian of Copenhagen, Denmark, in European Journal of Endocrinology, 1994

"Daily Administration of human growth hormone in the first week after trauma would enhance the metabolic status... resulting in reduced morbidity and earlier discharge from hospital." - Journal of Surgery. Vol 111, 495-502 quoting Drs. Ramias, Shamos, and Schiller of St. Joseph Hospital Medical Center in Phoenix, AZ, May 1992

"All adults with growth hormone deficiency should now be considered for growth hormone replacement therapy." Dr. Jake Powrie, M.D. and Dr. Andrew Weissberger, St. Thomas Hospital, London England

As explained in my earlier article, growth hormone replacement injections are very expensive and are out of reach of most people. Furthermore, it can only be administered by a trained doctor making the process expensive, cumbersome and painful because patients will have to have the HGH injected a few times a day at the time of writing this article.

In many countries, the administration of growth hormones replacement therapies are banned and made illegal because of the risks of severe side effects.

Therefore the easiest and safest way is to increase your own body's natural growth hormone's production naturally. There are many ways of doing this such as eating the right food, the timing of your meals, your exercise program and of course, supplementation with ghg enhancers to encourage your body to produce more natural human growth hormones.

Wishing you all the best in your quest to feel and look younger.
