    IGF vs HGH

    Somewhat familiar with HGH, but have only just learned of IGF since visiting this board. From what I understand IGF is secreted by the liver as a result of stimulation from GH.

    So does taking IGF bypass the need for taking GH injections? Or does GH provide other benefits you won't get with IGF?

    Plenty of threads on this. The main reason any bodybuilder under the age of 40 should be taking GH IMHO is for the fat loss and the IGF boost. For about a 1/4 of the cost and 10 weeks instead of 6 months, you can use IGF and clen and get the same result.

    The benefits of GH are only useful if a) done long term and b) in high enough doses. a+b = very expensive.

    Good luck

    IGF if true hyperplasia can be accounted for. I am still unsure about hyperplasia in humans. Research in birds when the sceitists attached some small weights in one wing only of a bird showed hyperplasia in that wing but so far I havent seen anything conclusive for humans.

    So all that talking about advantage HgH or Igf-1 comparing to SAA can be big bull..it???I was reading a lot about HGH and Igf-2,and many people say that the results after HGH or Igf-1 cycle are permanent( I think thanks to the hyperplasia), not like after steroids which give just water retention.

    Will Igf also provide the same health benefits of GH, better skin, increased libido, more energy?
