Human Growth Hormone

This hormone is the most abundant in the anterior pituitary.

A peptide hormone secreted by the anterior pituitary gland in the brain. HGH enhances tissue growth by stimulating protein formation. A recombinant (genetically engineered) HGH, called Serostim, has been approved by FDA as a treatment for AIDS wasting syndrome.
HGH is Human Growth Hormone, a natural hormone produced in the pituitary gland of the brain. HGH is considered "the key" hormone because it controls so many functions. It's responsible for youth, vitality, energy and all of the health benefits we associate with youth.

Benefits!!!!

Greater cardiac output
Lowered blood pressure
Superior immune function
Enhanced human sexual performance
Improved cholesterol profile
Reduced body fat
Higher energy levels
Increased exercise performance
Supplement stronger bones
Hair re-growth
Younger, tighter, thicker skin
Wrinkle removal
Increased muscle mass
Re-generation of major organs that shrink with age

I learned a ton in class about hgh and I decided to gather facts about testing my levels.
How to test HGH deficiency?HGH (human growth hormone) is an integral part of human body function. Normal growth and metabolism are largely dependent on it. Different levels of HGH will be present at different times in response to such things like exercise, sleep, emotional stress and diet.
I would love to be able to buy the HGH but realized that a doctor could only prescribe it and it's very costly. As much as I would benefit from increasing my muscle mass and the many other supper benefits listed above I will have to wait till I graduate and get a job making good money :)
This seems like the perfect hormone for all to take like every day vitamins.
Who would'nt want many if not all of the above benefits from increasing the HGH levels in our bodies.

  1. Rob, this post was easy to follow and outlined the benefits of HGH nicely. Too bad that it can also lead to diabetes, reduced sexual function and nerve damage. It's a good thing I have perfect skin, huge muscles and zero body fat or I might have to make up a new disorder to get my hands on some HGH.

    Nice work!

  2. Rob nice blog guy but ya gotta talk a little about how that hGH is controlled! =)

    There is 2 hypothalamic hormones that control the secretion of hGH: Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) which promotes the secretion of hGH, and then we got our growth hormone-inhibiting hormone (GHIH) that suppresses hGH.

    Our hGH does do amazing things for our body like the growth of muscles, bones, healing, etc. BUT its maintained because of those insulinlike growth factors (IGFs)

    Our IGFs respond to hGH and do things like breakdown proteins and the use of amino acids for ATP production (very important)! So they work together to maintain the mass of muscles and bones etc.

    Just thought I would throw that tid bit in there =) and I like danielle's comment ha ha.
