    Get Excited About Hgh for Anti-Aging ! Why? Because I have used it myself. I'm 42, and my body has completely healed in 4 months using a very small amount (1 IU a week ! compared with 1-4 IU's a day with athletes). My fat is gone, my joints are completely healed (from fibromyalgia), and my strength and energy are through the roof ! Back to feeling 20-something again ! I gave it to a 70 year old sick lady (family friend) who is now using a stair stepper and taking long walks in only 4 months - and she only used 1 IU a MONTH !. The diabetic needles are so small you can't even feel them. No kidding. Here is the expert I asked www.HghStore.net and he's a factory rep for several medical clinics. It works and it is pretty cheap ($100 a month - that's all it takes). My vitamins do something now, but only with Saizen (a brand of growth hormone). Brent

    I agree. I have been using hgh and my skin looks and feels like it "never" has. As for the Noah junk and the old people as guinea pigs like the jews, blah, blah, blah. Get a grip. The discussion was about HGH. It works.

    Hgh has been getting alot of positive feedback. The downsides though however are not well known yet. I've heard counts of bodybuilders who have enlarged organs from HGH treatment. www.thetlab.com

    This Dr is a dinosaur. He is very far behind the times and should not be commenting on a subject he obviously knows little about. The field of Anti Aging medicine is a booming industry and HGH leads this new wave of medicine. HGH is a safe substance, having been used across the globe for decades. In addition, liquids and other HGH releasers are in fact, effective and less expensive. Clinical trials have shown this to be a fact. Again, it is unfortunate that this individual is so far behind the times and would write such a slanted article.

    It's very confusing talking about HGH. I've consumed a supplement called Somalife gHP for 11 days. This supplement has been claimed as the first and the only supplement for restoring growth hormone levels. I found the explanation in US Patent no 6,346,264 about stimulating the pituitary gland to produce HGH naturally 100% in 6 month. Is it possible ?

    HGH may not be approved because aging is not a disease, however if it helps to maintain the health of the elderly shouldn't someone have their own choice in the matter. Maybe it will help to increase life expectancy if it is taken after the body's metabolism slows down at a normal rate, and if engineered a certain way maybe ones strength and durability will last past the ages between forty and fifty

    Thought this blog was very helpful in understanding the hormone and the effect. No bias info on the types of products available, side effects, and benefits. Not something I would be willing to invest in.
