HGH Talk

Earlier I wrote about DHEA and how it was doing me some good physically; today, I am going to give an update and further info on 7-Keto DHEA (3-acetyl-7-oxo-dehydroepiandros-terone) going on one and a half months into my experience on using it. 7-Keto is basically another form of DHEA, albeit a more readily available form of DHEA for the body; therefore, it is supposed to be more potent than DHEA itself.

Firstly, 7-Keto is a natural metabolite of DHEA. Studies so far on lab animals have shown positive benefits as demonstrated by stimulation of their immune systems, increasing their metabolic rates, and reducing muscle catabolism, among others. But long term human-based test results are more limited, although they also point to positive benefits in humans, and toxicology tests on rats and monkeys also indicate the high tolerance factor for 7-Keto by the body. You would literally have to take many tens of thousands of milligrams of 7-Keto per day for it to become toxic to your body. Read the rest of this entry »

I am sure you have seen HGH products being sold almost everywhere these days. Do human growth hormone releasers work? Today, I’m going to elaborate on this in more detail, and give some insights (from my side of the story).

I know HGH releasers fairly well as I have been taking them since 2002, but had to stop much along the way. Only relatively recently, have I gone on a sustained HGH program of my own, but what I’m talking about here is from my experience. It may differ from yours.

But firstly, let’s define what is an HGH releaser. HGH releasers, according to current definition, would be amino acid combinations “stacked” together, and are meant to be taken during low blood sugar levels (empty stomach) before exercise or bedtime. Read the rest of this entry »

The liver is highly important if you care about your health and aging. I notice the liver is another one of those organs that are always shunted to one side (along with the pineal gland) and ignored, just because it quietly maintains your body in one piece. Nothing could be further from the truth. The liver is actually the main player behind HGH; without it, growth hormone would be practically useless.

The body cannot make use of HGH in its pure form. It needs to be converted into IGF-1 by the liver before uptake by the cells. That said, the liver is the main detoxification organ of the body and the main metabolic factory. Smoking, drinking, pharmaceutical drugs, sleeping late, eating too much, poor bowel movements, and a weak kidney all take a serious toll on the liver over a prolonged period.

If the kidneys and the bowel do not perform their duties efficiently, the liver takes on the burden, and may leak out some of these toxins into the bloodstream. Neither will it convert HGH into IGF-1 as efficiently as you would like. The intake of DHEA also adds greater stress to the liver. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m currently taking DHEA. I daresay it is the best (anti aging supplement) I’ve taken thus far. Notwithstanding the fact that I don’t take any injections of growth hormone, I am quite positive DHEA combined with a HGH releaser (and regular exercise program) is just about the best anti aging program anyone below age 60 can manage to have, without too much cost.

A few weeks ago I started my own DHEA program and I can already feel (and see) a definite difference. I’m discerning a better sense of well-being. I feel more energetic and less liable to be fatigued. My eyesight seems to have gotten a little better because I can read text on the TV from where I’m sitting now, although it was harder to make the text out (previously). My facial skin is less dry, and I have also gained more weight; previously I believe I was a little underweight.

The downside is that my sleep seems to have been affected, as I find it harder to fall or stay asleep. And initially, I found myself waking up a little more thirsty than usual, but this has disappeared since. Read the rest of this entry »

OPCs (OPC Factor) or Oligomeric proanthocyanidins are getting attention in the anti aging community these days. They are what scientists call proanthocyanidins. As anti-oxidants, they are one of the most powerful antioxidants ever discovered, and thus, may prove useful in the fight against aging. Part of the flavanoids group (which includes rutin and hesperidin), they have the ability to neutralize free radicals into harmless substances in the body. Proanthocyanidins have as much as 50 times the ability of vitamin E to scavenge free radicals!

Free radicals are all around us, and are one of the prime causes of cellular aging. Unfortunately, our cells are exposed to all kinds of free radicals everyday, which bind to them and impair them from carrying out their functions properly. The air we breathe already contains free radicals and our water sources are choke full of it. Add to that, poor diet, pollutants and chemicals in food, and sleeping late, and you end up with health problems like premature aging. Read the rest of this entry »
