Human Growth Hormone (Somatotropin)

Quick info about Human Growth Hormone (Somatotropin)

Human growth hormone is produced in the body by the pituitary gland. Before this happens, Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) and Somatostatin (SST) are released by the hypothalamus, and that determines whether more or less GH is produced by the pituitary.

GH is a protein that stimulates the body cells to both increase in size, as well as undergo more rapid cell division than usual. In addition, it enhances the movement of amino acids through cell membranes and also increases the rate at which these cells convert these molecules into proteins. Clearly, you can see that this would amount to an anabolic (muscle building) effect in the human body. GH also has the ability to cause cells to decrease the normal rate at which they utilize carbohydrates, and simultaneously increase the rate at which they use fats. It can also be noted that cardio (fast walking, for an hour a day) is much easier while on GH than when off, and certainly the research would support his claim that submaximal aerobic ability is improved with GH use.

Growth hormone also has the ability to stimulate the production (or reproduction, in the case of an injury) of cartilage. Although it requires IGF to actually grow new cartilage, GH is directly able to stimulate the elongation of bone tissue. IGF, Testosterone (and of course other steroids), Insulin, thyroid meds, and GH will all combine to produce a pretty damned effective fat-burning and muscle building cycle!

Shooting GH every other day more accurately replicates the pulsile frequency of GH, and thus gave better results for growth (height) deficient children... GH pulsatility is necessary for proper function of the GH receptor. It is recommended 2 shots per day of .028iu/kg of bodyweight, taken every other day, for a minimum of 3months, and preferably for 2­3x that long....and preferably with the other synergistic compounds we've just taken a look at.
