Best HGH Products

The Internet is flooded with companies selling HGH products. Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is known by medical professionals as somatotropin. It is a substance created by the pituitary gland in children and adolescent youth that stimulates the production of growth and cell reproduction.

HGH primarily stimulates division and multiplication of cartilage and chondrocytes (cells in the growing ends of children’s long bones (legs, arms, finders and toes). HGH also acts on the liver to stimulate the growth of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I (IGF-I). The levels of HGH and IGF-I tend to decrease with age.

The potential of HGH being an anti-aging solution for adults was reported in1990 by the New England Journal of Medicine. Many studies and tests have proven their original finding less than fact. Regardless, the article created a massive marketing campaign to sell non-prescription supplements that have HGH-like qualities.

These hgh products are readily available on the Internet. There are many, many claims of success with HGH products/supplements including decrease in body fat, increase in muscle mass, restoration of hair loss or color, decrease in LDL cholesterol, an increase in HDL cholesterol, increased energy and an increased immune function.

A variety of HGH Products

These HGH products come in a variety of forms including pills, sprays, powders, and juices. Their prices also vary greatly and can be rather expensive. The active ingredients in the top rated and selling HGH products include amino acids like L-Ornithine, L-Arginine, L-Lysine, L-Tryosine, L-Dopa Bean Extract, L-Glutamine, Lisoleucine, L-Valine, and L-Glycine.

Other active ingredients contained in HGH Products are Colostrum, Phosphatidyl Choline, Polypeptide Growth, Alpha GPL, CABA, Clycine, Moomiyo Extract, and Ornithine Alpha Ketoglutarate. Any bottle of these products may contain these and any number of other ingredients. Research wisely, check the ingredients and compare them to other products that have the same ingredients or consider purchasing them separately.

Consider that your body’s natural HGH is a complex hormone composed of 191 amino acids. The often cited, original study that claimed an 8.8% increase in lean body mass, and a 14.4% decrease in body fat reported by the New England Journal was conducted in 1990. It is important to understand that the HGH products available today are still citing that same study, and that study was done with prescription HGH. The products available to you “over-the-counter” do not contain prescription HGH.

There are also many web sites that compare and offer reviews of HGH products. Use your common sense! Are they only reviewing or recommending one line of products or just 10 individual products? Are they associated with the manufacturer? Many of these web sites offer advice or recommendations that are nothing more than slick advertising.

If you choose to use an HGH product, be sure to follow the directions included with the package, and remember, despite what others may say, there is no miracle cure for aging.
