These are all synonyms for what
started out as a scientific exploration into the mechanisms of aging and has
evolved into a social movement as well as big business. The search for the
“Fountain of Youth” is one of humankinds’ most enduring myths. The desire to
discover, market and benefit from anything that will make adults look, feel
and act younger drives a massive research and marketing effort. In order for
the average person to benefit from the myriad of products out there that
claim to have “anti-aging” benefits, we must understand something about what
is available, what has been proven effective through controlled studies and
what is just an attempt to separate us from our money.
Without a doubt, the most visible…and to date… the most proven substance to
have anti-aging properties is Hgh or
human growth hormone. First extracted
from the pituitary glands of cadavers at great expense and used to treat
dwarfism, Hgh has become the poster child for the anti-aging movement.
Today, Hgh is manufactured at a fraction of the cost of extraction from
cadavers through recombinant DNA technology. Despite this, it is still very
expensive and administered only through daily injections. Even if a person
could afford it and got around the need for a prescription by buying from an
offshore pharmacy and was willing to inject themselves, one would still need
to have and understand regular and expensive lab tests to determine and
maintain proper dosage.
What are the alternatives? There are numerous products that purport to raise
Hgh levels through pills sprays and creams. They fall into one of the
following basic categories. Hgh releasers,
Hgh Secretagogues,
Homeopathic Hgh EnhancersHGH Human Growth Hormone
This is the abbreviation for Human Growth Hormone, the 'master switch' for
the body's hormones. The field of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is
burgeoning as the baby boomers move into their 50's and 60's. HGH is the
most studied and, to date, most effective PROVEN anti-aging substance. As we
age, the body's production of HGH declines and our body's strength, healing
capacity, disease resistance, sexual vigor, memory, skin and muscle tone and
muscle mass decline on a parallel scale. At the same time fat, wrinkles and
sore joints increase. HRT aims to restore hormones to their youthful levels.
HGH has been described as the ultimate anti-aging therapy. It affects almost
every cell in the body and has an over-all rejuvenating and mood elevating
effect. The list of benefits of HGH grows with each new clinical study and
it's being used to treat everything from AIDS to osteoporosis. |
