I know, you are thinking this is a joke, but it is truly a concern I have.
You see I own a dairy where we use Bovine Growth Hormone - somatropine for increasing milk production. I was wondering if a human can use this instead HGH since it is much cheaper and available, at least for me.
I think alot of longevity clinics are starting to offer that as a cheap replacement. I am not sure if it is synthetic or made from bovine hypotholomus glands... if it is the later I would be worried as neurological disorders could happen. Find out if it is synthetic and how many aminos are in the chain.
It is a genetically engineered drug made in the Monsanto labs. I have found though that "in the 50 Harvard univ injected substantial ammounts of BST in humans trying to find a cure for dwarfism. None of them show any growth, ... scientists later learned only somatropin from humans or other primates will stimulate growth in humans". So I guess I already got the answer to my question.
