“Real” HGH Evidence Inconclusive
January 20, 2010 | Leave a Comment
Times Writer Tammy Worth reports on the troubling trend of prescribing human growth hormone (HGH) off-label to prevent physical decline in elderly men.
“Again,†she writes, “research on the safety and benefits of HGH is mixed, and the National Institute on Aging says there is no conclusive evidence that the hormone can reduce the physical decline that comes with age.†Studies have shown that men who received HGH injections are, however, more likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome and diabetes. Other potential risks include heart failure and cancer. In fact, research suggests that low HGH levels in old age may actually protect against cancer.

Alzheimer’s & HGH
December 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego have made one of the biggest breakthroughs in anti-aging and Alzheimer’s research in the last 40 years: They’ve discovered a way to use hormone pathways to slow the aging process in the brains of mice, and they hope the technique could lead to the development of drugs both to prevent and treat Alzheimer’s disease in humans.
The scientists at the Salk Institute focused on IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1), which has been called the fountain of youth hormone and has been found to extend life expectancy in humans, worms, and mice. IGF-1 functions as a mediator for human growth hormone (HGH), which plays a critical role in the aging process. HGH promotes tissue repair and cell regeneration in the bones, supports the immune system in combating infection and disease, and ensures that as cells die off, healthy replacements are on hand. In other words, HGH is a factory of health and vitality. But as we age, our HGH level declines, and old cells cannot be replaced as readily with new ones. The body’s ability to self-repair is impaired. This is called aging.

HGH Use & Cost

Another researcher, Dr. Mary Lee Vance of the University of Virginia, has estimated that 30 percent of human growth hormone (HGH)Â prescriptions in the U.S. are for reasons not approved by the FDA. The price tag for such treatment is hefty: often more than $1,000 per month.

HGH/DNA Scientists Win Nobel Prize
October 6, 2009 | Leave a Comment
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 5, 2009 — With the announcement that three Americans, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn, Dr. Carol Greider and Dr. Jack Szostak jointly share the Noble Prize, the science of aging and staying young has finally come of age. The three scientists were instrumental in the discovery of a DNA segment called the telomere, which is the end cap of genetic material found at the ends of chromosomes.
With the announcement that the scientific community has deemed Telomere Biology worthy of the Nobel Prize comes the acknowledgment that the science of aging has progressed far beyond the controversial practices that have defined “anti-aging medicine” (like growth hormone-HGH, for instance) and into the realm of real scientific interest.

Grandpa Needs HGH…???
September 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Grandpa seems shorter than last year. Old men are grumpy. Oh, don’t worry about Earl _ he always nods off after lunch. Sometimes stereotypes are true. Men don’t like to think about it, but they face their own menopause, and shrinkage, crankiness and sleepiness can be the result. Male “andropause” is comparatively gentle: While menopause is a jump-off that can leave a woman in a new body in less than a year, men older than 30 lose only 1 percent of their testosterone annually. But the easiness of men’s decline doesn’t mean it isn’t a decline.
The natural medical response is to want to replenish low hormone levels. Yet no large-scale study has done for men what the massive Women’s Health Initiative did for women: Investigate the effects of replacing important sex hormones in the aging. But as demographic shifts bring an increasingly older population, male hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, is becoming a priority. “We’re trying to slow down the aging process,” said Dr. Ellen Binder of Washington University in St. Louis. “Daily activities, lifting groceries, climbing stairs, walking,” will all improve, she hopes. Other potential benefits include enhanced virility. This fall, Binder will coordinate a four-month study to give 20 St. Louis men ages 65 to 90 a topical testosterone gel and injections of human growth hormone (HGH). Binder plans more studies after this one, and hers is one of three across the country. Male HRT can encompass a number of hormones, and scientists know the short-term effects of many of them. For example, testosterone, the most important of these, prevents muscle loss and improves spatial-visual skills. That’s one reason baseball players benefit so much from taking testosterone and other substances like it, known as androgens.

HGH: Age Beautifully
September 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Good genes, a healthy lifestyle and skilful beauty enhancement can slow the clock of ageing but nobody can stop it ticking. Though we all believe in a holistic approach to beauty and ageing gracefully, society demands a youthful and physical beauty.
In an era where the need for physical beauty has overtaken most things, safe medical technology, nutritional supplements of plant origin or herbal in nature, tried and tested cosmo-ceuticals in the form of night creams and sunscreens, lasers certified for a particular skin type, skin tightening through heat and light, acne treatment and scar removal through safe peels, skin brightening for those who want it, minimally invasive procedures that are U.S.-FDA approved like Botox, dermal fillers and many others are a boon to mankind. Sleep well. Sleeping produces more HGH (human growth hormone) which is beneficial to your skin. Try sleeping on your back to avoid wrinkles.

Current State of HGH
August 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Writer Shaun Murphy exchanged emails with John T. Wendt, Associate Professor in the Ethics and Business Law Department of the University of St. Thomas, on the subject of HGH. Professor Wendt specializes in sports law and Olympic policies and business. His latest published work in the winter of ’09 was titled, “The Road to Beijing and Beyond: A Time of Transition in the War on Doping.â€
Professor Wendt described the current state of Human Growth Hormone. “There are a many misperceptions about Human Growth Hormone (HGH). For athletes it is promoted all over the internet saying that it will accelerate healing and rehabilitation following injury, and increases your cardiac output and athletic performance. Claims have been made that HGH is anti-aging or can even reverse aging.â€

(Anti) Aging Process: HGH Is Key
August 19, 2009 | Leave a Comment
HGH is at the heart of the aging process.
Sometime between the ages of 21 and 30, HGH levels begin to aggressively decline at a rate of about 14% percent per decade. This happens to everybody regardless of gender, race, and lifestyle. The reason this is so important is because there is a rather substantial body of clinical evidence that strongly
suggests a relationship between the decline of HGH production in the body
and many of the negative effects we commonly associate with aging.

HGH Skin Cream: Next Big Hormone Breakthrough?
August 10, 2009 | Leave a Comment
HGH (human growth hormone) supplement in cream form? A miracle cream called 3LAB Super ‘h’ Serum which claims to reverse sun damage and plump ageing skin has become the latest must-have from Selfridges. Despite the £215 price tag, the London store already has a waiting list of 100 people for the tiny pots of 3LAB Super ‘h’ Serum cream, even though it does not go on sale until next month.
The 3LAB Super ‘h’ Serum cream, which has taken more than 10 years to develop and approve, is said to be the first to contain synthetic human growth hormone (HGH), which the manufacturer claims can slow or even reverse signs of ageing such as wrinkles and skin pigmentation. The protein-like substance occurs naturally in the body but 60-year-olds have half as much HGH as 20-year-olds.

HGH May Help Turn Back Time
August 4, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Sometime after her 43rd birthday, Dawn Foley noticed she was beginning to look her age. And she didn’t like it one bit. A former beauty queen turned sales professional in Los Angeles, the blue-eyed brunette is used to turning heads. “I just did not want to look older,†she says.
When Foley approached her ob/gyn seeking hormones, the doctor told her that her levels fell within the normal range of a woman her age and that she didn’t need any more. So Foley instead turned to the world of “age management,†whose practitioners have learned to skirt the law by expanding the definition of growth hormone (HGH) deficiency syndrome to include almost anyone over the age of 30. “That’s one of the first things I learned,†Foley says. “If a regular doctor tests your levels, he’ll say you’re within range even if you’re all the way down at the low end. But [an anti-aging] specialist is going to tell you, ‘You’re within the normal range, but if we bring those levels up, you’ll feel a whole lot better.’â€
