Boosting HGH and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1) Naturally The scientific community accepts the fact that keeping HGH levels up is the key to reversing the aging process. The question is how best to safely raise HGH levels. Initial trials used injections of HGH taken from the pituitary glands of cadavers. HGH has now been synthesized but still must be given by injection since oral supplements are broken down in the stomach by bile acids and not absorbed by the system. These injections are extremely expensive ($8,000 to $35,000 per year). Fortunately there is an effective natural alternative to HGH replacement, using nutritional supplements which will stimulate the release of HGH from the pituitary.
Scientific research suggests that promoting the body naturally to release HGH is more affordable, safer, and even more effective than directly replacing the hormone. The best way to increase HGH Research indicates that the best way to elevate HGH levels is to stimulate the body to produce more HGH. Rather than introduce more HGH into the body, you can stimulate your own pituitary gland to produce more HGH. Remember that studies have shown that an old pituitary gland has the same capacity to produce HGH as a young pituitary gland. If we can find a way to stimulate our pituitary gland we will have the best of all worlds. You are not introducing a foreign GH, so you eliminate the side effects. Also, our body is very good at self regulating.
It will not produce an excessive amount of HGH which could be harmful. In effect, you body knows best what the correct dosage of HGH is to release for your body. This line of supplements are called HGH enhancers. HGH is produced in the human brain by the pituitary gland, it is produced in greatest amounts in adolescence. As we age, the production of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) diminishes. By the age of 60, HGH levels decrease by 80% from adolescent levels. Depletion is marked by the familiar signs of aging, such as increased body fat, lack of vitality, decreased muscle mass, and poor general health. In a study conducted in Sweden, Dr. Bengt-Ake Bengtsson found people with low levels of HGH had a shorter life span than those of the same age with higher levels of HGH. However, after six months of HGH therapy, the aging process was reduced by an average 10 years in test subjects.
