Is it true that I need a medical prescription for recombinant HGH? HGH injections requires a medical prescription and some medical supervision. Individuals seeking the benefits of HGH can also use HGH supplements (we recommend: sytropin) to increase the HGH levels in their body naturally. Why the cost of HGH supplements are so much lower than HGH injections which costs $10,000/month? Pure HGH is extracted from the pituitary glands of cadavers, so the cost of HGH injections are around $10,000 a month. The supply of these injections are very limited and only the very rich can afford it when medically indicated for their dwarfed children. Instead HGH supplements (sprays and pills) are made of of homeopathic or natural products. Which naturally increase the level of HGH in our body. They take little time but surely works in long term. We recommend trying them for 6 months before seeing the full potential and results. Can I quit taking HGH supplements at any time? Yes, you can quit taking hgh supplements at any time without any downside effect or rapid decline of benefits. You simply will not gain the benefits of it if you quite it before 3 months. How long does it take to begin benefiting from HGH supplemenents sytropin? You begin benefiting immediately but the results are cumulative. Like exercise, it takes about six months to fully kick in. Can I take more than the prescribed amount? It will not create any harmful effect. But it will also not give you extra benefits. Do I have to buy a years supply at time? No. The sytropin is available from one month to 6 months supply. We recommend that you take six months supply. Do you recommend HGH supplements by itself? Our generation has been conditioned to look for the silver bullet, the Panacea that will solve all of our ills. Human growth hormone must be thought of as part of a total lifestyle regime that includes nutrition, exercise and much more. Yes, we recommend HGH supplements as part of a total naturopathic lifestyle program. How are HGH levels measured? HGH is only present in the body for a short period of time before the liver absorbs it and converts it into various growth factors, the most important of which is IGF-1, also known as Somatomedin-C. However, IGF-1 - which stands for Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 - is present in the body at all times and since it does most of the work for HGH it is easiest to measure IGF-1 levels. Blood and saliva tests can show your IGF-1 levels. Generally, the lower your levels, the more you stand to gain from HGH supplements. What is meant by the term bio-identical? It means that the recombinant HGH replicates what your body secretes naturally unlike a drug that is a foreign substance to your body. The body's own receptor sites accept the hormone and process it as if the body produced it. Are there any side effects with HGH supplementation? We now have available to us extensive medical and scientific studies on HGH (sytropin in particular) that go back to the 1930's that demonstrate no significant side effects when HGH is taken in prescribed small doses. Is there any risk that HGH supplementation can cause cancer? All indications are there HGH supplements do not cause cancer. The best evidence for this comes from the work of Dr. Chen and Dr. Terry who run a clinic where they perform HGH injections. From 1994 - 1996 they treated over 800 patients with HGH injections. Amazingly there have not been any reports of cancer from any of the patients. As Dr. Terry stated in Grow Young with HGH, "With 800 people over the age of about 40, you would think that given normal incidence rate of cancer, some of these people would get cancer. It could be that there is some sort of protective effect from growth hormone replacement." What was the connection between HGH and "Mad Cow" disease? HGH injections were first used to treat children with HGH deficiency that caused stunted growth in 1958. However, the only source for the HGH for these injections at that time was the brains of cadavers. Morbid as it sounds, thousands of dead people's brains were used to extract HGH to inject into children in the period 1958-1980. Whilst it did help children grow the HGH supply had become contaminated with the virus that causes Creutzfeldt-Jakob or "Mad Cow" disease. As the evidence mounted that the HGH injections were responsible for children developing mad cow disease the FDA immediately put an end to growth hormone injections. However, when scientists were able to create synthetic growth hormone in the lab - recombinant HGH - they were able to remove the risk of mad cow disease and so the FDA once again approved HGH injections. As long as you take recombinant HGH, you are not at any risk whatsoever for "Mad Cow" disease. If a person is ill should they not take HGH supplements? According to all the available medical literature, the more ill a person is the more deficient they usually are in HGH and the more they would benefit from HGH supplements. I asked my doctor why I had diabetes, heart disease and arthritis. He said "because you're aging". What do you think? This gets to the heart of the issue. As we age our bodies become more susceptible to degenerate types of diseases which are, in fact, aging-related illnesses. In allopathic medicine each individual disease is treated but only after an official diagnosis. In naturopathic medicine premature aging, itself, is treated. We believe that most of our modern day degenerate diseases can be prevented, so we begin our naturopathic protocol prior to the diagnosis. Isn't aging a natural process — should we be intervening in this process? If we carried this concept to its logical conclusion, we would conclude that heart disease, Alzheimer's, diabetes, arthritis, obesity, osteoporosis and loss of vision are also all natural processes. Should we stop treating these conditions? The practice of medicine is for the most part the practice of intervention in the aging process. Why not simply treat the core of the problem, namely aging itself? Are there ways to naturally increase HGH levels? Diet, exercise, lifestyle and hgh supplements like sytropin all have an impact on HGH levels. Certain foods can spike HGH levels and exercise leads to an increase in HGH. In addition, something as simple as getting more sleep can increase your HGH levels. Our pituitary gland produces HGH while we are in deep sleep. Therefore, the more we sleep the more opportunity we have to produce HGH. A book called Natural Hormonal Enhancement by Rob Faigin shows how to develop an eating plan that will naturally increase your GH levels. With over 1700 references to medical studies, it is by far the best book on the subject of Natural Hormonal Enhancement. OK, I'm convinced about the effectiveness and safety of HGH. How do I get started? Either you can get started by buying the Sytropin directly from here. Or simply telephone our office at 1-732 775 7575 to make an appointment for your blood test and office visit. Remember, only those who have been ascertained to be deficient in HGH levels will be prescribed HGH.
