    IGF-1 or HGH?

    My field is not biochem so can I ask you guys which of these is better? What I do know is that hgh causes the liver to release igf-1. So wouldn't it be logical to just take igf-1 directly....kinda like eliminating the "middle man"?

    depends on your goals.hgh has some overal benefits and must be run for a longer period of time,igf brings some nice results in a short period of time.if your after muscle gain then i would say go with igf.

    igf does lean you up a bit but not as much as hgh.however you can take a high dose of t3 with it as lr3 is'nt affected much by igf binding proteins.

    ah...learned something new. Will defanatly have to consider that since I think igf 1 is much cheaper in the long run.

    Some places offer it in oral form....any advantage/disadvantage to this? They claim they have modified the oral form to perform the same as, or better than the injectible. Any truth to this or just BS?

    oral seems to work but can never be better then the injectable version.

    all i hear about the oral form of igf is that it sucks and its not worth buying.
