    Wednesday afternoon chit chat. (HGH)

    So im trying to sell my wife on hgh, for weight loss purposes and over all a better quality of life. I think she will try it, but i need a little help trying to convence her to take the plung. She relates HGH to AAS and hates the though of AAS, so if you guys run across ideas or a link you saw please throw them my way. Im trying to put together a few things for her to read. I relize this could have been in the louge, but what the hell..... most of us are killing time at work anyhow. Happy hump day peps!

    Some tidbits from an article I read:
    HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE
    (HGH)


    written by Jerry Emanuelson

    Latest revision: May 27, 2010

    Important Note: Many people come directly to this chapter from a search engine without realizing that it is one chapter of an online Life Extension Manual. If you are interested in this subject, please read the rest of the Manual as well, beginning with the important Preface to the Life Extension Manual.

    The average person thinks of the damage of aging as an inevitable process of wear and tear. However, if wear and tear were the primary cause of aging in humans, a 60 year-old should have only twice the signs of aging as a 30 year-old.

    Why do most 30-year-olds show few effects of aging, while the effects of aging are so obvious in a 60 year-old person? If wear and tear were the major cause of aging, a 90-year-old person would only have 3 times as much aging damage as a 30-year-old.

    At the age of 30, people have spent most of their lives with fairly high levels of human growth hormone (HGH). HGH is responsible for growth during childhood -- and for the repair and regeneration of human tissue throughout our lives. By the time we reach the age of 30, our HGH levels are only about 20 percent of their peak levels during childhood, and after the age of 30, they continue to decline at about 12 to 15 percent per decade, and often much more. By the time most of us are 30 years old, our bodies no longer produce enough HGH to repair all of the damage that is occurring in our bodies. As our HGH levels continue to decline, the damage that we call aging continues to accelerate.

    The decline in HGH is not the only cause of the manifestations of aging. Even if our HGH levels remained at the level of a 25 year-old, we would continue to experience the effects of aging, but those effects would be greatly reduced until we reached a very advanced age. HGH does not affect the root cause of aging, as measured by maximum lifespan, but it can certainly affect many of the manifestations of aging.

    By increasing the levels of HGH in our bodies, we can slow, or even reverse, many of the manifestations of aging. It must be done carefully, though, and under medical supervision. Ideally, this HGH replacement should begin at about the age of 30 years, but HGH replacement can be beneficial at any age above 30. In fact, for older people, HGH therapy can reverse the manifestations of aging by 5 to 15 years or more. There is no other single therapy currently available that can have the impact on the aging body that HGH can have.

    What HGH therapy can do:

    Reduce excess body fat, especially abdominal fat. (The reduction of abdominal fat is the single most profound effect of HGH replacement in many people.)

    Increase muscle mass (and physical strength if combined with moderate exercise).

    Reduce wrinkling of the skin and some other effects of skin aging.

    Re-grow certain internal organs that have atrophied with age.

    Increase bone density.

    Strengthen the immune system.

    Reverse cognitive decline.

    Stimulate production of the bone marrow cells that produce red blood cells.

    Reduce the probability that you will spend the last years of your life in a nursing home.

    HGH slows the progression of cardiovascular disease, and reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular disease, in individuals with natural growth hormone levels that are below average for the age of the individual. HGH can also slow the progression of cardiovascular disease by improving one's cholesterol profile. There is increasing evidence over the past year or two that maintaining healthy growth hormone levels results in a stronger heart. Individuals with low growth hormone levels have an overall increased risk of death due to cardiovascular disease. Low growth hormone levels cause a particularly large increase in the risk of stroke as compared with individuals receiving growth hormone replacement.
    What HGH cannot do:

    It cannot eliminate the effects of oxidation damage, although it may alleviate some of it.

    HGH cannot eliminate the effects of the reduction of other hormones. In fact, a deficiency of certain other hormones will decrease the beneficial effects of HGH.

    It cannot significantly reverse the damage to human proteins caused by glucose, although it may reverse a little of this damage.

    Although it helps skin to look younger, it cannot eliminate all of the damage cause by sunlight and other ultraviolet sources.

    It cannot increase maximum lifespan. For many people with HGH or IGF-1 genetic defects, however, it can significantly extend life expectancy.

    I suggest listening to her and leaving it alone. Giving her things to read is not likely going to sway her (jmo).

    If she doesnt want to do it then dont push it on her. She has already decided it is wrong and relates it to something she sees as wrong.

    I would not want for someone to do something because i pushed it on them and then in the back of their head they hold a grudge for it

    There are several women in the gym that's on HGH. I've seen their transformation over a 6 month period. They're between 36 and 42 and they look awesome.
