Hormone Therapy
What it is: Human Growth Hormone is a hormone naturally produced by the pituitary gland in the brain. The production of HGH is at it's peak during adolescence, but it begins to decline as we age (in fact, over 25% by our early thirties). HGH regulates a number of of the body's important processes, including body fat, muscle tone, functioning of vital organs, skin texture, libido and sexual performance, the immune system, energy and endurance levels, bone density and sleep quality.
One HGH's most amazing benefits is the change in your body composition. HGH increases your lean muscle mass and bone density while substantiallyy decreasing your body fat. In a six-month study on the effects of HGH, participants decreased body fat by 14% and increased lean body mass by 8%. This study was done without any change in the participant diet or exercise.
HGH assists your body by:
- Regenerates Organs (Heart, Kidney, Liver, Lungs)
- Dramatically improves the Immune System
- Improves Sleep (Promotes R.E.M. Deep Sleep)
- Decreases Body Fat and Cellulite
- Decreases Wrinkles
- Improves Skin Texture and Appearance
- Increases Bone Density and Reverses Osteoporosis
- Increases Lean Muscle Mass
- Improves Mood and Sense of Wellbeing
- Enhances Libido and Sexual Performance
- Increases Energy Levels
- Improves Cholesterol Profile
- Increases Lean Body Mass and Decreases Body Fat
Does human growth hormone come in pill form?
Some Web sites claim to sell a pill form of human growth hormone that produces results similar to the injected form of the drug. Sometimes these are called human growth hormone releasers. There's no proof that these claims are true, however. Likewise, there's no proof that homeopathic remedies claiming to contain human growth hormone work, either. The only proven and studied method is by taking HGH via injection and it is prescription medicine.
What's the bottom line?
If you have specific concerns about aging, ask our doctor about proven ways to improve your health. Remember, healthy lifestyle choices — such as eating nutritious foods, controlling portion sizes and including physical activity in your daily routine — can help you stay healthy and strong as you get older.
