We have over 10 years of direct exercise physiology and hgh experience.

This provides a more realistic idea of what to expect from HGH therapy. We'll share the "insider" tricks that people use in conjunction with HGH therapy to safely accelerate growth hormone production.

Along with the tremendous benefits of HGH therapy you'll also learn about some of the known limitations and risk factors you need to consider.

HGH Fact #1

Do you really need HGH therapy...?

...is one of the main questions people always ask. The short answer is no, you can certainly live your life without it. It really has more to do with the "quality" of life you are looking for. The dictionary defines quality as the "Degree or grade of excellence." If you are looking to increase the "quality" of your life HGH therapy is probably something you should consider.

HGH Fact #2

It is very important to know that all HGH sold on the market is a synthetic form of HGH called rHGH recombinant human growth hormone. This is important because some companies claim to have "real" HGH in their products. This information helps you separate fact from advertising.

HGH Fact #3

Is there a test to determine the level of HGH.

Actually the true indicator of a persons HGH production is in measuring the level of IGF-1 in your blood stream. Your physician can do this for you.

HGH Fact #4

Are homeopathic and secretagogue HGH products as effective as injected HGH?

No. Injected HGH achieves its effectiveness because it is introduced directly into the blood stream in very large amounts. In fact, the FDA classifies it as a systemic drug and this is why it is not sold over the counter.

Why do some people choose injectable HGH?

Again the short answer is you can cover more ground physiologically in a shorter time frame. In the case of athletes, it is well known in athletic circles that injecting HGH and/or IGF-1 straight into the blood stream boosts performance levels.

Important points:

* Injectable HGH requires a physician recommendation and prescription
* Physician monitored
* Costs range from $800-$1100 per month
* Injectable HGH dosages are measured in IU's (international units)

Possible Side Effects:

* Carpal tunnel syndrome
* Allergic reactions
* Irregularities of bone growth (acromegaly)
* Diabetes and edema (swelling/water retention).
* When therapy stops so does the boost in performance and energy levels.
* Injectable HGH does not stimulate the pituitary gland, on the contrary injectable HGH bypasses the pituitary gland completely.
* Cost

HGH Fact #5

Can homeopathic and stimulant HGH products increase HGH production?

Yes, and there are tremendous benefits to raising your HGH production to what they were 5-10 or even 15 years earlier.

So essentially, you can enjoy most of the benefits of injectable HGH without the cost and potential side effects of injected growth hormones.

HGH Fact #6

Do all homeopathic and secretagogue HGH products work about the same?

No. These products have a wide range of effectiveness. Paying a high price does not necessarily mean you get the most effective. Determining effectiveness is the bottom line. Although homeopathic and secretagogue HGH products do not require a prescription and you have any reservations about your physical condition it is best to consult with your physician.

HGH Fact #7

Earlier we mentioned "insider" tricks that people use in conjunction with HGH therapy to safely accelerate growth hormone production.

Actually, over the years we have gathered a large collection of methods people have used to optimize their bodies to prepare and condition it for increase response to HGH therapy.

You can find a complete list here.

HGH Fact #8

What is a realistic expectation of results from hgh supplements?

Your blood levels of IGF-1 will rise.

To what levels you can raise them is difficult to determine. Each person is different and how you respond to HGH therapy is determined by many other physiological factors.

We will say that if you follow the prescribed dosage schedule and be aware of some very basic dietary (i.e. foods high on the glycemic index) and lifestyle guidelines you will enjoy the tremendous benefits of HGH therapy.
