    Natural GH production

    Does anyone know the natural amount of GH that is produced by the body each day? For someone in their mid-twenties?

    1.5 to 2 iu's a day, general does for hgh use is 4 iu's so if you were to use hgh at 4 iu's a day you would be tripling your natural dose of GH

    How do you know this? I've never heard someone in their mid 20's produces up to 2iu a day of hgh.

    Young adolescents secrete HGH at the rate of about 700 μg/day, while healthy adults secrete HGH at the rate of about 400 μg/day. (Gardner, David G., Shoback, Dolores (2007). Greenspan's Basic and Clinical Endocrinology (8th ed.). New York: McGraw-Hill Medical. pp. 193–201. ISBN 0-07-144011-9.)

    1mg = 3iu
    700ug = .7mg
    .7mg = 2.1iu This is how much HGH an adolescent secretes in a day
    .4mg = 1.2iu This is how much HGH an adult secretes in a day

    Thanks for the replies, just seeing how much ghrp6 actually effects Gh production from the norm.

    Hello Scotch,

    hope your well.

    Have you ever heard that training legs until violently sick increases the amount of natural GH released into the body ?

    If so, do you have any idea as to what amount the natural production of GH increases to

    I've heard of heavy squats and deadlifts increasing testosterone production. Can't say I've heard of it producing GH though.

    Heavy metabolic load increases level of test and other anabolic levels rather than HGH.

    This is excellent information, thanks for posting it.

    I have read in Suzanne Somer's books that she uses only .08 mg GH a day. This seems an awfully small dose but I wonder if it suffices for anti aging purposes. She mentions it improves her mood, skin and strength.

    Dr Reiss and Theorge have also written books on homone importance. They reccomend similar doses to what Suzanne takes. They say some can not even tolerate these small doses due to water retention type sides and need to lower by another 25%.

    What is your opinion on such low doses?

    Women react much faster to HGH then men. Yeah, .08mg is a real small dose but if it works for her, great. Most women are on 1iu/ed or 1.5iu/ed.
