What is HGH anyway?

Human Growth Hormone (HGH), also known as

somatotropin or somatropin, is a peptide hormone that

stimulates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration in

humans and other animals.

In The NewsControversies regarding the use of human growth hormone (HGH) as

treatment method have centered around the claims, products, and

businesses related to the use of growth hormone. Most of these

controversies fall into two categories:

1. Sports doping.

2. Sale of fraudulent products.

3. Claims that growth hormone treatment safely and effectively slows or

reverses the effects of aging.

Why is Doping Banned in Sports?

“The use of doping substances or doping methods to enhance

performance is fundamentally wrong and is detrimental to the

overall impact of sport. Drug misuse can be harmful to an

athlete's health or to other athletes competing in the sport. It

severely damages the integrity, image and value of sport,

whether or not the motivation to use drugs is to improve

performance.”

What’s The Big Deal?

The term “Doping” refers to athletes taking any

substances that will give them an unfair athletic

advantage over another player by having taking those

substances.

What Doctors Tell People

Stuart Weinerman, MD Chief, Division of Endocrinology North Shore/Long Island Jewish Assistant Professor of Medicine, Hofstra/North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine

The biggest reason not to take HGH as an anti-aging therapy is simply that it has not been adequately studied. We do not know the risks and benefits of long-term use of HGH in healthy people. As we have learned from many other similar situations, such as the safety of long-term hormone replacement in menopause, we should not make any assumptions of benefit or safety about potent drugs or hormones. We should first do the correct studies, powered to look at real risks and benefits, not just short-term effects like changes in muscle. Only when large studies are completed should we consider treating large numbers of normal people. We should not be doing an uncontrolled experiment on millions of healthy people.

Side Effects

• Carpel Tunnel Syndrome

• Stiff Joints

• Swelling

Who Can Take It?

• Though many doctors prescribe it for off-label use,

the FDA has an hairy eye-ball on doctors who

prescribe it.

• Need to have a deficiency. That’s questionable. Most

patients are deficient.

• If patient is in lower 25%, refer to endocronologist

Not Taught In Medical School

• Hormone replacement therapy isn’t taught in med

school.

• Doctors are taught to treat the symptoms of HGH

deficiency, not fix the cause.

Does It Slow Aging?

In a sense it does by protecting the organs and structure of

the body, if at optimal levels. The FDA has not approved

the use of human growth hormone as an anti-aging

therapy.

What Causes HGH Deficiency?

Standard of Care

Doctors are required by law to say and prescribe certain

things, and telling patients anti-aging treatments are no good

keeps patients healthy. There’s no money in good health,

there’s big money in disease.

Recommended Pharmaceutical Grade Supplements

ActivEssentials™ for Women is a combination of four targeted nutritional formulas packaged together to provide convenient and comprehensive nutritional support.

MedCaps Menopause™ is a unique combination blend that is formulated to provide nutritional targeted nourishment for women during menopause. It features specially selected herbs and nutrients that support the adrenal glands’ adaptive response as well as support circulation, relaxation and overall well-being. Featuring a non soy derived source of isoflavones, MedCaps Menopause may also beneficially influence estrogen receptor function.

RegeneMax™ provides ch-OSA® (choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid), that helps naturally nourish your body’s beauty proteins. Regular orthosilicic acid is highly unstable, leading it to form polymers. These polymers are too large for the human body to absorb. But the patented “choline stabilization” technology in RegeneMax prevents the polymers from forming, ensuring optimal absorption. RegeneMax has been formulated with clinically proven ch-OSA for your assurance.

Hormone Protect™ is an ideal combination of DIM (diindolylmethane) and SGS™ (glucoraphanin) that helps protect estrogen-sensitive tissues by promoting healthy estrogen metabolism and supporting detoxification and neutralization of harmful estrogen metabolites and xenoestrogens.

Clinical Applications

• Support Healthy Testosterone Levels• Support Healthy Libido and Performance• Support Overall Vitality• Optimize Physical Strength and Endurance• Support Sense of Healthy Mental and Physical

Well-Being

TestoPlex™ is a proprietary formula that includes synergistic, antioxidant-rich, bioactive extracts that support vitality and general physical and mental well-being. It has a patented green oat extract and unique mungbean sprout powder. Salivary assays have shown that the combination of ingredients in TestoPlex free up serum-bound testosterone to optimize availability of this important hormone.

Estro Harmony™ is for women who want relief from menopausal hot flashes and support for breast health. Research suggests the ingredients in this formula can also benefit cardiovascular status and bone remodeling.

This all-natural formula delivers a proprietary blend of plant lignan extract and 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN) from hops, at clinically relevant levels, to support the body’s natural process of healthy aromatase activity and exert phytoestrogen (e.g., enterolactone) and antioxidant activity.

Melatonin CR is a vegetarian formula with

a biphasic delivery system that releases

melatonin quickly and then steadily.

Melatonin is naturally produced in the

pineal gland in response to changes in

light exposure; it helps promote healthy

sleep patterns as well as antioxidant and

immune activities. Melatonin CR can

support these functions by helping to

maintain normal levels of melatonin in the

body.

PMS Soothe™ is a comprehensive blend of Native American and Chinese herbs traditionally used to provide balance and support for a healthy menstrual cycle.

RelaxMax™ is an innovative formula in

the form of cherry-flavored, powdered

drink mix. It contains a blend of

ingredients that supports the body's

natural synthesis of catecholamines, the

inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA,

hormonal balance, and healthy glucose

metabolism. RelaxMax aims to promote

a calm, relaxed, well-balanced

emotional and physiological state.

The XYMOGEN Mitochondrial Renewal Kit (MRK) is formulated to support and promote mitochondrial biogenesis and function. MRK supplies three active, orally bioavailable formulations—N.O.max ER™, Resveratin™ Plus, and ALAmax CR™—which function synergistically to support the critical role that mitochondria play in metabolism. The patented functional components found in the MRK are safe, well-tolerated, and have been uniquely prepared to enhance both absorption and overall bioavailability in order to maximize patient benefit and satisfaction.

ProbioMax DDS™ is a chewable probiotic designed to activate in the oral cavity for support of healthy teeth and gums.

As you chew it releases the safe and powerful DDS-18™ strain of Streptococcus salivarius—a beneficial bacterium that normally occurs in a healthy oral cavity. S salivarius DDS-18 then attaches to cells in the oral cavity and colonizes, positively affecting the bacterial population therein and naturally defending the teeth and gums.
