Do
you recommend replacing both HGH and Testosterone at the same
time?
Hormones may be replaced separately or in any combination.
Better results are obtained from taking a combination of hormones.
We like to say there is a 1+1=3 relationship. We understand
the cost limitation on growth hormone. The benefits far outweigh
the cost.
How
will I lose weight?
HGH recontours the body changing your body composition reducing
the fat and increasing lean muscle mass. It’s like a
metabolic liposuction, vacuuming out the fat from underneath,
especially the abdominal area. Unfortunately, the more body
fat you have especially in your mid section the less HGH you
release. HGH accelerates the burning of fat by making it available
as fuel. By increasing free fatty acids, HGH makes the fat
stores available for energy production. Fat cells have HGH
receptors and when the HGH binds to the receptors, it triggers
a series of enzymatic reactions in the cell to break down
fat. This is called lipolysis. You see with HGH you’re
changing the hormonal message telling your body to get rid
of fat. HGH also increases your energy expenditures overall
so that you actually burn calories faster, a neat metabolic
trick. HGH is unlike any other method designed to take off
fat and increase muscle because it works with your body’s
natural order, rather than against it.
How
will I build solid muscle?
HGH working thru IGF-1 increases the uptake of amino acids
in the cell and enhances synthesis of DNA, RNA, proteins extra
cellular proteins, carbs, and sugars. The result is an increase
in cell size accelerating cell division resulting in accelerated
muscle growth. It also builds muscle by conserving nitrogen.
Ordinarily when you loose weight you excrete nitrogen which
is needed for muscle tissue. But HGH keeps the body from losing
nitrogen. It also increases protein synthesis without increasing
the breakdown of proteins in the cell. Accelerated cell division
also means speedy healing and repair after injury.
Will
hormone therapy help sexual dysfunction?
Sexual dysfunction can have many causes; however replacing
hormones is the best place to start treatment. We suggest
raising your testosterone to a healthy level along with growth
hormone, (if cost is not a prohibitive factor), to boost your
sex drive. There are also non-prescription products such as
Male Performance Plus that increase the amount of nitric oxide
in the blood to aid sexual mechanics. If there is still need
for assistance, consider something like Viagra. This process
has been found to fix over 90% of problems of sexual function.
We strongly recommend not using a product such as Viagra without
first taking care of testosterone levels. You may find that
the mechanics are temporarily fixed, but you will not have
a desire to use the erection.
Will
hormone replacement cause my natural hormone production to
decline?
Cycling of hormones is designed to minimize the possibility
of a decline in your natural hormone production.
Cycling is taking time off from hormone replacement. When
outside hormones are introduced into the body, the gland producing
that hormone senses that the body has an adequate supply of
the hormone and does not need to work as hard and may become
"lazy". Cycling is mandatory for HGH and for men
under 45 on testosterone.
Are
there side effects?
There is absolutely no evidence suggesting that if used under
a doctor’s care that there are any unfavorable long
term side effects. If abused you may develop a wrist condition
called carpel tunnel syndrome which is inflammation of wrist
tendons, water retention, gynecomastia or acromegaly.
What
about oral HGH or HGH stimulants?
Advertisements that claim they have real HGH in a spray or
pill may in fact contain small amounts of HGH. There is some
evidence that HGH can enter the blood stream if absorbed directly
into the membranes of the mouth, but oral HGH therapy is not
as effective as a medically supervised injectable program.
It has been medically proven that HGH cannot be absorbed through
the digestive system.
