Mayo Clinic Discusses DHEA & HGH
December 18, 2007 | Leave a Comment
K. Sreekumaran Nair, M.D., an endocrinologist at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., who has studied DHEA supplements, talks about DHEA.
What Is DHEA?
The manufacture of DHEA starts in the pituitary axis, which releases ACTH (adrenocorticotrophic hormone). ACTH signals the adrenal glands to manufacture DHEA from cholesterol. It is released into the bloodstream as DHEAS (DHEA sulfate). Dubbed the “mother of all steroids,” DHEA is the most abundant steroid in the human body and is involved in the manufacture of testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and corticosterone. The decline of DHEA with age parallels that of HGH, so that by age sixty-five, your body makes only 10 to 20 percent what it did at age twenty.

HGH Benefits More Than Just Anti-Aging
December 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment
What are some of the non anti-aging benefits of HGH? Cecilia Capuzzi Simon wrote a special to The Washington Post on HGH. Here is part of her story:
HGH does many things besides promote growth, and many endocrinologists think it has been misnamed. HGH regulates metabolism, converts fat into muscle and affects lipid levels. It is being studied as a treatment for AIDS patients and others with wasting diseases as well as in burn patients and people who have received transplanted organs.
Though levels of HGH drop after growth is done and as one ages, it is necessary to good health. Adults with growth hormone deficiency are likely to have an abnormal fat/muscle ratio and reduced strength, exercise capacity, cold tolerance, bone mineral content and cardiac output. They are at greater risk for cardiac death and psychosocial problems including depression, irritability and low libido.
