Guest guest Posted February 9, 2000 Report Share Posted February 9, 2000 Dear Sabra: HGH can be taken as an homeopathic remedy, meaning not much actual hormone in it or you can get remedies that contain only precursors, no actual HGH. There does seem to be some merit in keeping HGH fairly high, but it can also be iffy when any form of cancer may exist. The GH made for cows is a GE Monsanto aberration which simply drives the cows metabolism up so she gives more milk...with lots more estrogen in it and some more side effects. This is elaborated in Cohen's notmilk URL. I personally would not take the bovine derived HGH. I am trying the amino acid precursors and have not yet observed any great results. The best ways of beating aging is to: 1-keep thyroid function up {and Thyrodine will do this] 2-utilize a natural progesterone [We now have a Progespray or oral progesterone which has a 99% absorption and has adrenal stress and anti-oxidant herbs in it. 3-follow essentially a Hallelujah diet plan [see www.hacres.com] 4-use chlorella, spirulina or SuperFood, a well designed all natural greens formula by Dr. Schulze [available from... healthfree@...] Best wishes, Earl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 Thanks Jeanine, on the info on HGH Sincerely, Mark Chiocchi [ ] HGH Most HGH supps are a stacking of amino acids which allow certain proteins to be produced, and stumilate productin of certain growth factors in the body. The HGH itself can be danerous to teh body. Most HGH supps are the precursors to HGH, and relatively safe. These precurser hormones are created by progressive resistance exercise as well. They do address conditions associated with aging and help to slow the process some. The only way to completely stop the aging proces is to eliminte free radical damage in the body. Free radicals steal hydrogen bonds from the DNA, causing it to twist...this is the aging process, and it the precursor to all sickeness and disease, including the disease of aging.. The Master Amino Acid Pattern provides the proper proprtioning of 8 essential aminos which allow the body to create every other essential amino it needs, and then some. Active H- restores the hydrogen bonds to the DNA, untwisting the DNA..not just slowing or stopping the aging process, but reversing the aging process...as in your gray hair returns to the normal color, your wrinkles go away without surgery, your age spots disappear, and every symptom associated with aging is corrected.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 Hi Guys - I researched an HGH product a while ago. I wish I could remember the name of it. It was not strictly HGH but something that enabled the body to produce its own HGH more easily. I heard about it on the radio and then found it online. From what I remember, the inventor(?) talked about how taking HGH itself was not a good thing. I was thinking about getting it. If I find the info, I will post. Love. Karolyn > Thanks Jeanine, on the info on HGH > > Sincerely, > Mark Chiocchi > [ ] HGH > > > Most HGH supps are a stacking of amino acids which allow certain proteins to be produced, and stumilate productin of certain growth factors in the body.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 Hi, I have been taking HGH for several years. Any product that claims it contains HGH is only false advertising. True HGH does not have a very long life once it has been reconstituted one month max at present and that is stretching it. It is also very environmentally unstable. It is an amino acid chain that is currently cultured primarily from bacteria, only one that I know of is cultured from mammal cells (serostem) I am familiar with the homeopathic products and although someone might think they feel better using them they do not really contain HGH as they are homeopathic. Some people have good results from the amino acid products as Duncan mentined. But if you want the results true HGH provide it is very expensive and available by prescription only. Unless you go black market which is still very expensive and unless you know the patient you might end up with counterfeit product and who knows what is in it.

C stands for centuries of dilution. A 4C dilution means it was diluted four times, each by mixing one part with 99. Thus, if you started out with a pure substance, a 4C dilution means you have one part in 100^4 or one part in 100 million. You would get those concentrations of these amino acids by rinsing a chicken breast. They are called " releasers, " because they are supposed to constitute or protect the real HGH in the blood. That alleged effect has never been proven. Similarly, a 30X dilution means you dilute a pure substance to 1/10^30 or 1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. At that level of dilution, you would not have a single molecule of HGH in an entire swimming pool of product, even if you started with a pure quantity of HGH. I believe the notation means that they started with a 1/10^10 dilution anyway. You would take in much more HGH by simply licking perspiration off your own skin or by kissing someone. The fact that HGH is not absorbed orally is irrelevant for these concentrations. The molecule is too large to be absorbed through the mouth or mucosa, and through the stomach, it is destroyed by the liver. The cost of a prescription therapeutic injection is about $1,000 to $1,500 per day, so it is unlikely that any of the over the counter versions really contain any HGH, especially if taken in any manner besides an injection.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Masiste, Yes, I've already heard from Chuck, our resident guru on this topic. I wonder who in the world can afford this injectable medication, and what kind of doctor will prescribe it, and for what " condition " . Like I said, the product probably won't hurt me, (other than in my pocket book), so I'll use it for the prescribed length of time before I decide if it " helps " . They give a 90 day guarantee, and you have to use it for 60 days before you can " complain " . I'll save all your e-mail about this, print them out and enclose with my return shipment.

Much of what is sold as HGH is fraudulent. Here is a summary of the effect of these restrictions and who gets around them: http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/mar2006/tc20060306_648859.htm?cam\ paign_id=topStories_ssi_5 Here is a blurb from The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine: [begin quote] Growth hormone is clearly indicated for hormone-deficient children who would otherwise remain extremely short. Until the early 1980s, they were the only ones eligible to receive it; because it was harvested from human cadavers, supplies were limited. But genetic engineering changed that, and the hormone can now be manufactured in mass quantities. This has led pharmaceutical houses to eye a huge potential market: healthy children who are simply shorter than average. Short stature, of course, is not a disease. The problems short children face relate only to how others react to their height and their own feelings about it. The hGH injection, on the other hand, poses significant risks, both physical and psychological. These injections are linked in some studies to a potential for increased cancer risk,5-8 are painful, and may aggravate, rather than reduce, the stigma of short stature.9,10 Moreover, while growth rate is increased in the short term, it is unclear that the final net height of the child is significantly increased by the treatment. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine worked to halt these experiments and recommended that the biological and psychological effects of hGH treatment be studied in hormone-deficient children who already receive hGH, and that non-pharmacologic interventions to counteract the stigma of short stature also be investigated. Unfortunately, the hGH studies have continued without modification, putting healthy short children at risk. [end quote] Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 what I get is real! It is injectable, Serostim somatropin (rDNA) made in Switzerland. I think China is also making it too.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Chuck - So how many IU do you need per injection? I thought you said it was like $1000 per injection.
