Genius Methods Used To Slow Down The Aging Process

By Chris Channing

Aging is a natural process that most of us have come to accept as normal and not preventable. Others have hope towards the future of science, and in stopping the effects of aging. One solution that has been presented is the use of human growth hormones, also called HGH, to keep the body from slowly aging into an older and more frail body.

The pituitary gland produces HGH primarily during the years of puberty. At around the age of 30, the production tends to decline heavily. What scientists have found is that this may be responsible for the effects of aging. By running studies of using test subjects to inject human growth hormones into their systems, scientists have made some astounding discoveries in anti-aging concerns.

From what studies have shown, it is better to balance a healthy level of human growth hormone. Too much can result in prostate cancer for men, and breast cancer for women, among other serious problems. Too little will result in energy deficiency, muscle loss, and inability to repair wounds. Obviously, consulting a doctor isn't just a good idea, it's necessary to take the hormone correctly if a consumer should so will it.

Even though the studies have only been conducted on a short time period, already we are seeing some of the glorious effects that HGH can have on the body and in anti-aging. For most test subjects, taking human growth hormone actually resulted in larger muscle mass and less fat content while still leading the same lifestyle they had previously. While this is truly amazing, it also didn't necessarily mean they were stronger than what they were previously.

The human growth hormone craze is mostly used to combat AIDS- which is likely how most are familiar with the drug. HGH is able to boost the immune system and ward off the effects of AIDS and prolong deterioration of the human body. Indeed, taking HGH for much else may also be illegal in the United States, since it is stated that one must have a real health condition in order to take the drug. This is due to the lack of long term studies, and also some of the health risks associated with HGH.

Be wary of places that sell HGH. You should first do research or ask a physician to see whether or not the drug is legal to take for your own personal reasons. If it is, you should continue to consult physicians and perhaps go online to get a good deal on the drug.

Final Thoughts

Keep in mind that there are some health risks associated with human growth hormone at present. It is imperative that you get professional medical assistance in determining if you need it or not. Otherwise, you may face medical and legal problems. - 15252
