Uses For HGH

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

I’ve read a lot of information out there about this HGH craze.  It’s no surprise to me that people want to stay looking young longer, heck why not?  Personally, I look forward to growing old gracefully but I’m not a vain person.  I think that all this beauty worship is a waste of time and usually it proves to be damaging and even dangerous.  For instance, HGH was originally used for patients with AIDS/HIV or little kids with kidney disease.  It was their MEDICATION….it was never intended to be used in the fashion it is now. 

Why would you take medication if you weren’t sick.  A normal sane person wouldn’t.  I know you won’t catch me taking cold medicine unless I have a cold.  Sure, HGH will provide you with an initial rush, elevated moods, younger looking skin etc…but you have to take it for so long to get those results that by the time you quit, your pituitary gland no longer works and your body cant produce HGH on its own. 

That just means that anytime you aren’t taking HGH you will just age faster.  Not to mention that it has been linked to cancer, enlarging of the heart, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, chest pains, painful and swollen joints due to fluid retention, carpel tunnel syndrome, bad headaches, diabetes and strange growths on the bones or internal organs. Sounds heavenly, doesn’t it?  Do you really want to take that chance?  Just remember, people dont look that pretty when they are in caskets.

HGH Studies

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Without question, unlike many other ingredients in general across many markets, HGH has actually been studied.  That is impressive and disappointing as it has been banned.  But frankly, it was an article in 1990 published by Dr Daniel Rudman MD that really set off the craze surrounding HGH.  He is a researcher at the Medical College of Wisconsin.  He conducted a controlled study of 21 healthy men between 61 and 81 using doses of biosynthetic HGH to achieve 8.8% increase in lean body mass and a 14.4% decrease in adipose tissue mass with a 1.6% increase in average lumbar vertebral bone density and 1% increase in skin thickness. 

It’s a small study, but a study nonetheless.  Since then, it has been quite controversial and they have shown various effects.  Rather, consumers have reported various effects and benefits.  HGH is a natural substance in the body, and it decreases with age.  Some have found it to have various benefits when put back in, and they continue to ask questions, explore, etc, despite the illegality of it now.  But it was banned partly because of side effects and partly because of other factors.  So it should just be kept in mind as you choose your options.

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.
