Is hgh (human growth hormone) the fountain of youth??
Answers: no its the hormone to giantism or acromegaly. If there is excessive growth hormone in a child, the child ends up growing larger than others around them. (an example of someone with this is Andre the Giant, the WWE wrestler). However, if it occurs later in life, it can result in larger hands and feet. It is caused by tumor in the pituitary gland in the brain, which produces excess hgh, so therefore, no it is not fountain of youth!
here is a website that has some more information if you'd like. http://rarediseases.about.com/od/raredis...
It's high level may lead to abnormally faster growth, which may be harm full. Not the fountain of youth.
no! anything that makes your cells proliferate (grow), such as a growth hormone, could also cause cancer, which is basically unchecked cell growth. our bodies have lots of mechanisms to protect us from such unchecked cell growth, but if we hit them with enough weird substances, all it takes is one cell to go out of control. and dying of cancer is the opposite of living forever.
your body has evolved to know, much better than some lunatic in a head shop, what will help it survive. it isn't perfect, but i wouldn't ever use drugs or hormones you don't know anything about, unless a doctor you trust says you need them to stay alive.
NO! It's a fountain of profits for companies that exploit human nature and take advantage of the fact that they are not tested or approved by the FDA.
Snake Oil, potentially dangerous.
If it sounds too good to be true, it is!
