    you should be taking it several times a day and preferably not befo bed as it messes with your natural pulses. Morning and afternoon or pwo is a common protocol.

    Old school and IMO backward thinking - why do you think your body releases its main burst of GH at night? Maybe cos that's when it works best...?

    As far as disrupting your nighttime pulse it is now thought that may not be the case anyway as it is IGF levels that work on the feedback loop and prevent GH release and IGF levels do not necessarily rise straight away following a shot of GH...
    BUT assuming the worst - that bedtime shots DO disrupt your nighttime pulse the the relevence of that depends on the dose you're taking - i.e. if your taking 10ius a day then your natural nighttime pulse is almost negligeable anyway!

    what's the average quantity of HGH secreted by a human healthy body in the night pulse, assuming you're 20-30 years old?

    10 IU per day at a single dose = crime
    it should be splitted in two doses of 5 IU

    Many people would dispute this. Growth is the most debatable topic of them all. For every athlete or doctor out there, there is that many opinions on how it should be run. I've taken it all at night and switched a couple weeks ago to all in the morning. I haven't seen too much of a difference but I like the fact of taking it and doing my A.M cardio on an empty stomach.
