    Cardio and diet are way more effectives to loose BF, HGH is effective on a long rung at high dose, and is not recommended for some one at age 19.

    There was a recent study conducted by Australian scientists what concluded that increased levels of growth hormone and IGF-1 are linked to prostate, colon and breast cancers. Humans and animals with low levels of growth hormone showed resistance to many types of cancers, while animals with an abundance of growth hormone receptors show an increased cancer risk. Adults who take a moderate dosages of growth hormone or IGF-1 do not appear to have an increased risk of cancer, however higher dosages could promote the disease..
