Human Growth Hormone (HGH)

The Use of the Human Growth Hormone in the Elderly
By: Dr. Steve Novil

To talk about HGH it is nessesary to talk briefly about the pituitary gland, which is the gland that produces the HGH. This gland is divided in three parts and with a very notable structure. Each part produces different hormones, and these hormones will stimulate specific parts in the body. We know that HGH stimulates the growth in children, but what effects can we expect in the adult?

Which anti-aging effects can it give us?

The HGH or SOMATOTROPIN is produced in the front pituitary and this hormone stimulates not only growth in the body, it works also in the proteins, electrolytes, and carbohydrates metabolism, soluble colagen synthesis and erithropoyesis. It's effect on growth is not direct, it works through the somatomedines or growth factors(sulfatation factors), also sinergistically with other glands in the body.

All adults are interested in finding one substance that can give us better quality of life, one substance that:

• Has an anabolic effect
• Reenforces the immune system
• Burns the fat
• Repairs the tissue damage
• Repairs the muscle and increases the strength and mass
