"Do you know these truths about Human Growth Hormones (HGH)?"
Human Growth Hormones were recently thrust into the limelight as the "breakthrough" in anti-aging treatment. Is it really true? Can man finally stop the aging process and look 15 years younger?
There is no easy answer as scientific studies are not extensive enough at this stage of the game to be conclusive. But the claim of a breakthrough is without basis because of a study conducted by one Dr. Daniel Rudman (New England Journal of Medicine, Volume 323 July 5, 1990 Number 1 - Effects of Human Growth Hormone in Men over 60 Years Old ).
In this study, Dr Rudman showed that 6 months of growth hormone injections turned the clock back 10-20 years for his subjects of men over 60 years of age. Note that Dr. Rudman injected very high levels of HGH on 60 year or older patients - so it is still not conclusive for people of all ages (as least not yet).
This study by Dr. Rudman also found support from other doctors like Dr. Ronald Klatz, Author "Grow Young with HGH". Dr. Klatz has this to say about HGH :
|
"GH (Growth Hormone) is the ultimate anti-aging therapy. It effects almost every cell in the body, rejuvenating the skin and bones, regenerating the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys, bringing organ and tissue function back to youthful levels."
|
So, it seems HGH does help reduce aging but there are still some confusion out there on the types of HGH remedies available. What are they and what should you know about them?
|
Basically, there are 3 types of commercially available HGH treatments :
- Prescription HGH injections,
- Homeopathic HGH supplements and
- HGH precursors or releasers (also known as HGH enhancers or Secretagogues)
|
1. Prescription HGH Injections
This is definitely an effective treatment as supported by the studies done by Dr. Rudman and Dr. Klatz. But its negative side effects are daunting.
Consider:
- injecting yourself 2 to 3 times everyday for the rest of your life. The pain and chore will put off most people
- spending at least $1,200 to $2,000 per month on these injections
- disrupting the body's natural ability to product HGH by these artificial injections
If you don't mind all the above, then this could be an option for you. However, there are smarter options around, read on...
2. Homeopathic HGH supplements
To understand how Homeopathic HGH supplements works, you must understand what is Homeopathy. According to Dictionary.com, Homeopathic Medicine (Homeopathy) is :
|
"A system for treating disease based on the administration of minute doses of a drug that in massive amounts produces symptoms in healthy individuals similar to those of the disease itself."
|
What does this mean? It simply means that Homeopathy involves the use of a remedy that will produce the exact same symptoms (as experienced by a sick person) when used on a normal, healthy person. This is totally different from mainstream, orthodox medicine.
Thus when a sick person takes the homeopathic remedy, the effects of "negative on negative" will supposedly treat the person.
Bearing this in mind, it makes no sense how Homeopathic HGH supplements can be effective since it basically goes against the grain of Homeopathy theory. In addition, the HGH hormone is a very large hormone that it is very unsuitable for use in homeopathy.
If you really must use Homeopathic HGH supplements, then bear in mind that it should not be a pure homeopathic remedy but a mixed one (which are available on the markets).
3. HGH precursors or releasers
These supplements contain essential amino acids that are known to stimulate the pituitary gland in our brain to produce more natural HGH. (The pituitary gland is responsible for healthy growth, metabolism, and maturation in humans)
Note that these supplements are NOT hormones but releasers or precursors. Their role, unlike the other two mentioned above, is not direct. This tend to be a safer, more natural way to help our body produce more HGH hormones.
Which is why these HGH precursors or releasers are very popular with the baby boomers who can't wait to lay their (aging) hands on them.
But before rush to buy them, read our special review on HGH supplements. You will be guided on what are the best brands that you can invest in.
Conclusion
In conclusion, we recommend that a safer, more effective, less painful and more affordable treatment involving HGH is through the use of HGH precursors or releasers. As mentioned above, read our special review on HGH supplements to check out what the best brands are...
