Myths About Human Growth Hormone Treatment Exposed
Perhaps you remember the story about explorer Ponce DeLeon. He was on the search in vain for a Fountain of Youth.
Even today people have followed after Ponce De Leon in the search for the latest anti-aging solution. Consumer store shelves are filled with an endless supply of products are offered to people who want to preserve their youthfulness for as long as possible.
If that is not enough endless numbers of TV, internet and radio ads, are spread across the media screen. A curious consumer does not need to even navigate the Internet as ads for maintaining a lean, strong body and wrinkle-free skin.
Some modern marketers of pills and sprays claim to have found a Fountain of Youth in a substance called HGH (Human Growth Hormone). The bombardment of products and brands in the marketplace has lead to endless myths, misconceptions, and false assumptions.
Myth Debunking Time!
Myth #1 – All HGH products are always safely administered
The truth – Nothing could be further from the truth regarding the above statement. Taking HGH is not always safe, and even methods regarded as safe are only safe dependent on a variety of factors.
For instance, the form of HGH treatment being taken, your age that treatment starts, your health condition, and miscellaneous physiological factors could affect safety. For example, taking HGH via injections or capsules can cause high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol levels and increased anxiety levels.
However, the most serious health complications often result from injection HGH treatment abuse. Serious muscle and bone deformations and diseases can result, and heart or other cardiovascular problems could result.
Myth #2 – HGH Sprays work faster than anything else
The truth – It is your pituitary gland that produces HGH in the body, not the HGH spray. Therefore, taking HGH does not affect the gland itself. Instead, the sprays you would use are designed to help you stimulate the natural production of human growth hormone in your body.
This is a natural process that takes time, no matter what kind of treatment you use. This is particularly true of using over-the-counter and/or other non-prescription sprays. One of the additional arguments against this myth is that there is limited evidence as to how well sprays can send human growth-producing stimulation sublingually.
Myth #3 – HGH can always make you taller
The truth -This is absolutely one of the most untrue myths. The problem is that HGH only effects your height & stature during the developing phase of your life, and usually this occurs before the age of 21.
Is really no evidence that have proven that taking human growth hormone treatments by any means will actually help you grow taller after puberty ends. After all, this is the time during which your maximum height is usually achieved.
Myth #4 – Taking HGH treatments is just like taking “steroids”
The truth – Oftentimes HGH treatments are mainly taken to “increase” your physical power and weight lifting / athletic ability. The only types that are said to be possibly as dangerous as steroids are the injection treatments, and they are illegal for steroid use.
However, even so, steroids belong to an entirely different class of hormone replacement treatment medications. Either way, the injection treatments are only meant for use for treating HGH deficiencies.
Myth #5 – All HGH treatments and enhancers work the same way
The truth - This is another unfounded myth. The only and safest natural way to normalize or increase your blood HGH levels is to stimulate the pituitary gland itself. The injections that you would receive in the doctor’s office also might be safe.
On the other hand, the doctor-prescribed solutions are far more potent and could lead to dangerous consequences. You can use certain pills, sprays, or extracts to help you stimulate HGH production naturally instead of using injections.
