Human Growth Hormone: The new Fountain of Youth? by J. Bowler

treatment and the cost runs about $6000 a year, generally not

covered by health insurance. The drug is usually injected and a

lot of follow up testing is required.

You can purchase HGH in tablet and spray form, both are much less

expensive, but some experts feel that users would quickly develop

a tolerance to them and that their effectiveness would quickly fall

off. Anecdotally, consumers of these products report the same

positive effects that those who receive the injected form of the

hormone experience.

Some doctors claim that HGH can cause tumor growth, although this

has never been demonstrated in humans, increase fluid retention,

which could be a problem for certain heart patients and can cause

joint pain and carpal tunnel syndrome. There could also be a problem

with diabetics, since sugar metabolism is affected.

Other doctors admit that without careful monitoring, there can be

problems with excessive bone growth, vocal cord thickening, fluid

retention, arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome, but insist there is

absolutely no evidence of an increase in cancer or diabetes in humans.

One thing everyone agrees on is that while human growth hormone may

increase the quality of your life it will not make you live any

longer. There seems to be little dispute about the short term benefits

of the treatment. But the bottom line is that nobody yet knows the long

term effects of HGH as an antiaging solution

So like many things in life, HGH therapy is a gamble.
