HGH Reviews

We have been getting many emails about different Hgh products. Is the oral sprays good? Hgh pills that promise to increase your hgh levels? Or injectable Hgh that is injected directly into the body.

1. HGH can only be absorbed in safe and effective amounts by injecting the pharmaceutical grade of rHGH, which is expensive and only available on a doctor's prescription. It is not significantly absorbed by mouth, by spray or any other route.

2. Most so-called HGH releasers are composed of amino acids, primarily L-arginine, in large doses. A heaping teaspoon of L-arginine on an empty stomach will increase HGH release by the pituitary gland in a young person by up to 30%, for only a short time, and only in those people who already make a lot of HGH on their own and don't need any more. It will not cause HGH to be released to any significant degree in an older person, when it is needed to replace deficiency. The small releasing effect is progressively lost with age, and diminishes with time even in younger people.

3. HGH releasers are non specific and increase other undesirable corticosteroid hormones. They increase the pituitary release of ACTH, causing an increase in adrenal cortisone (corticosteroid) production. Cortisone (cortisol) in excess speeds aging while giving a temporary boost in energy and sense of well-being. This may explain testimonials of immediate "feel-good" effects of such products, unrelated to HGH.

 4. HGH releasers have the same effect as ghrelin, an appetite stimulating peptide hormone.. HGH releasers may therefore increase appetite and cause weight gain. 4. HGH releasers have the same effect as ghrelin, an appetite stimulating peptide hormone. HGH releasers may therefore increase appetite and cause weight gain.

5. The effect of HGH releasers gradually fades with time, over a few months--called tachyphylaxis.

6. Some so-called HGH releasers contain raw animal brains, listed on the label as "hypothalamus" or "pituitary." The theory is that they contain a minute amount of HGH releasing hormone (GHRH) and related peptides. Raw brain tissue can spread mad cow disease, scientifically known as spongiform encephalopathy or Creutzfeldt Jakob disease. This is true of all so-called glandular products with freeze dried brain or pituitary ingredients.
