Only adults should take it. People with diabetes, cancer, or heart problems must consult with their physician. Any woman who is pregnant or lactating should not take the product.

When HGH was originally discovered researchers learned that children needed ample amounts in order to grow properly. Thus the name growth hormone.

No. Growth hormone is not an anabolic steroid but has similar effects. Anabolic steroids are synthetic products that do not exist in nature. Growth hormone is a naturally occurring substance made by the pituitary gland.

Human growth hormone (HGH) is produced in the pituitary gland of humans, and the hormone is secreted throughout a person's lifetime. It promotes growth in children and plays an important role in adult metabolism. It was first isolated in 1956 and its structure was identified in 1972. Until the mid-1980's the only source of HGH was from pituitary glands collected post mortem.

The Growth Hormone in Renewal® products is made from a patented bio-engineered form of GH identical to the kind found in the human body. We do not use GH from animals as many others do.

Arguably the most important hormone in your body, Human Growth Hormone, or HGH, is produced by the pituitary gland in your brain. After the age of 20, the hormone release rate greatly decreases, and by the age of 30 most people start to notice an acceleration in the aging process. One of the leading factors involved in this decline is the decreased production of Human Growth Hormone. Studies indicate that your body produces about 15% less of the hormone with each successive decade.

Growth Hormone therapy is injected into the subcutaneous tissue (the fatty layer under the skin). Your healthcare provider will instruct you on the method of administration that has been prescribed for you or your child. Almost anyone can learn to administer Growth Hormone after receiving instructions from his or her healthcare team.

NO! Our products are for many people more effective than even injected growth hormone because these products can cause a sustained increase in growth hormone levels. We want to help the body to increase its own growth hormone production and release over a long period, because HGH itself is very unstable and breaks down in the body very quickly, no matter how it gets in the bloodstream.

Growth Hormone therapy must be given by injection because it is a protein. If the medication were taken by mouth, it would be broken down by digestion in the stomach and intestines and would never get to the rest of the body to do its job.

In adults, GH deficiency may often result when the pituitary gland becomes diseased or damaged. Particular tumors of the pituitary gland (pituitary adenomas), physical injury to the brain (hemorrhage, trauma, surgery), or radiation therapy can all injure the pituitary gland severely enough to cause GH deficiency. In the U.S. approximately 50,000 adults have GH deficiency and 6,000 new cases of adult GH deficiency are diagnosed each year.

Human Growth Hormone is safe in physiologic doses. Among its many functions is that of repairing and regrowing tissue. When a person reaches maturity, Growth Hormone is important for cell revitalization and repair. Cells cannot repair, maintain, and heal properly in its absence. While hGH is sometimes used to help stimulate height in children who are pituitary dwarfs, it does not make an adult grow taller.

Human Growth Hormone stimulates virtually all of the various systems in your body. The hormone increases your metabolism helping to break down fat, build proteins, and create lean muscle. Human Growth Hormone is often referred to as the "fountain of youth hormone" due to its youth-promoting benefits.

The effects of Human Growth Hormone on humans have been studied and tested on people for over forty years. HGH has received an astounding amount of press in the last few years, largely due to a 1998 clinical study conducted by the National Institute of Aging. The results of this study have been described as "too good to be true" and "miraculous" by the medical community.
