HGH (Human Growth Hormone)

Posted By: AllNutri.com
 

HGH (Human Growth Hormone) is a hormone produced by the brain’s pituitary gland, it controls muscle and bone growth and lowers the amount of fat in the body. HGH is also called somatotropin. HGH is the primary hormone responsible for growth in humans and it helps regulate metabolism.

HGH is a really remarkable substance that has been confirmed in several clinical studies to have unbelievable Anti Aging properties on the body. Because of its reputation as the source of youth that is able to turn back the old day of your and its standing as “plastic surgery in a bottle”. Human Growth Hormone is a 191- amino acid single chain polypeptide hormone which is synthesized, stored and secreted by the somatotroph cells within the lateral wings of the anterior pituitary gland which stimulate growth and cell reproduction in humans and other animals.

Physiological Functions Of HGH (Human growth hormone):

All the major hormones besides human growth hormone exert their principle effects by stimulating target glands, including the thyroid gland, the adrenal cortex, the ovaries, the testicles, and the mammary glands. Human growth hormone, in contrast to other hormones, does not function through a target gland but exerts its effects on almost all tissues of the body.

HGH has been given to children of smaller stature to become taller with great success. In addition to this obvious effect, HGH also helps in the retention of calcium thus has direct effect on bone mass and could be very helpful to women experiencing osteoporosis. HGH also increases the production of muscle cells not to be confounded with hypertrophy which usually is what bodybuilders accomplish with the use of anabolic steroids. Steroids are known to be very hazardous to health and their effects on muscle are at most temporary. To those wanting to lose weight and tone their bodies HGH is very effective in helping lose fat through a process called Adiposis. Human growth Hormone affects every organ of the body thus can be used in the reversal, of the effects of aging. Not only does hgh work on the outside but also works on the internal organs. HGH can improve the immune system, the skin, memory, weight.
