The Pros And Cons Of HGH

By Jelleano Jacken


Probably the only hormone that is gaining much popularity nowadays especially in the beauty industry is the human growth hormone.

HGH is a long chain amino acid molecule produced by the anterior pituitary gland, located at the base the brain. HGH works to promote growth and production of cells in the human body. Aside from that it also increases the body height and muscle mass and helps keep calcium, improves bone health and immunity, decreases fats and maintains desirable sugar and insulin levels.

Human growth hormone is present in the body all throughout his or her life but it is present in significantly increased levels during youth. This is so because it promotes growth in children and also assists in adult metabolism.

Because of its many wonderful functions, this hormone is produced synthetically. Synthetic human growth hormone was developed in 1985 and approved by the FDA for specific uses in children and adults now coming in the form of prescription drugs and products.

In children, the hormone is injected to treat short stature of unknown cause and also to cure poor growth caused by ailments like Turner's syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, chronic kidney insufficiency, HGH deficiency and small babies.

In adults, the synthetic HGH is used to manage people with disease s like short bowel syndrome, HGH deficiency, and muscle wasting disease.

Apart from these FDA-approved functions of synthetic HGH, it is also used in ways that are not really advised. Some people use the hormone, along with other performance-enhancing drugs such as anabolic steroids, to build muscle and improve athletic performance even if HGH's effect on athletic performance is unknown.

Moreover, the synthetic HGH is thought by anti-aging experts to stop or halt aging in the body. Nonetheless, this HGH claim still hasn't been approved.

These people who use HGH for non-approved purposes obtain injectable HGH from doctors who prescribe it for off-label purposes and through Internet pharmacies, anti-aging clinics, and web sites. Other people, aside from getting HGH in injection forms, get them in pills and sprays.

Before you get interested in purchasing these synthetic products, you first know that this can come with side effects such as nerve, muscle, or joint pain, swelling due to fluid in the body's tissues, carpal tunnel syndrome, numbness and tingling of the skin and high cholesterol levels.

Furthermore, if you buy the drug from an unreliable source, you could be at risk of getting a fake one that can possibly harm your health.
