HGH From China

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

It seems like everything is imported from China.  In this case, a jury in Denver, Colorado substantiated an indictment against College Pharmacy in Colorado Springs for importing illegal HGH from China and distributing it among customers.  Thomas Bader, age 63, and Kevin Henry, age 56, have been arrested as owner and sales representative, and they were arrested as of August 28, 2007 by special agents from the FDA.  Bradley Blum, age 36 who was apparently a representative for the Houston company who helped them to import it from China has also been charged at this time. 

The big thing is that of course it’s illegal except in the treatment of certain disorders.  But in addition to that, no HGH imported from China has ever been approved for that purpose or use in the United States in general.  My thought is they obviously thought they could make a huge profit off it and did, but also HGH from China was cheaper and easier to get.  But did it ever occur to them that there is a reason it’s cheaper?  I mean HGH is a hot commodity right now, it’s going to be expensive if you buy it legitimately or if you illegally import it.  Why would they provide better prices like that?

HGH Reduces Psoriasis

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

Now I’ve heard of chondroitin reducing psoriasis, especially when it was paired with Crohn’s disease or arthritis.  But now they’re saying that HGH treatment could treat psoriasis.  So in theory, our skin manifests things that go wrong in the rest of our body, and it definitely is the largest organ in the human body.  But if you are not healthy in some ways, you may experience psoriasis, dry, scaly patches on the skin.  It is generally hereditary, and it may also affect your fingernails, elbows, and finger tips with thick, dry skin that might even bleed in some cases. 

Tearing in worse cases can be extremely painful.  It may differ between individuals.  But they say that HGH improves overall health and therefore improves psoriasis.  It strengthens your immune system, helps you to fight off infections, improves blood circulation, and naturally improves skin, preventing skin irritation.  Also some ingredients found in HGH supplements such as arginine actually improve skin healing, reduce irritation, strengthen the immune system, and otherwise promote faster healing and reduced bacteria and irritation. 

So in that way, it actually makes a bit more sense, especially in relation to this very specific treatment plan and otherwise.  So in short, HGH supplements would be advisable, not necessarily the injections.

Dangers Of HGH

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

So the fact is that HGH is definitely not legal.  But is it safe?  According to studies I’ve read, with regular use there are no real big side effects.  And they obviously use it for certain medical conditions, whereas if you produce too much HGH, obviously that would have a seriously detrimental effect for you.  But there are not that many people with that particular problem, otherwise known as gigantism.  It is widely available through HGH stimulating products, though the real HGH stuff is of course illegal and it is banned by major sports groups as well such as the Olympics and MLB. 

It is made by the pituitary gland and essentially controls many parts of youth and aging.  It can be helpful for multiple reasons including to increase lean muscle mass, burn more fat, improve skin, reduce signs of aging in general, etc.  It decreases with age.  But apparently they consider it that dangerous, because obviously they banned it.  So what are these side effects?  Well long term abuse can lead to irregular heart rhythms, increased diabetes risk, and joint or facial deformities.  But with moderate use and even long term moderate use, there are as of yet no side effects. So…..I still fail to see it.
