The treatment will probably help some, but individual results are not easy to predict. I’m including a couple of links to info about treatment. Below is also an excerpt of one of the links. You should be prepared for a final adult height that may be 1.5″ greater than if you did not have the treatment. Individual results will vary. I don’t know about Kimo being used to delay bone growth, but that combination may make the treatment more effective.

“The weight of the evidence, although affected by the lack of studies with high quality and strong recommendation, indicates that growth hormone therapy increases adult height in children with idiopathic short stature. However, the growth promoting effect of growth hormone therapy is small, and data analysis shows wide individual variability, which may partly be related to the heterogeneity of the study population.”

“Conclusions Growth hormone therapy in children with idiopathic short stature seems to be effective in partially reducing the deficit in height as adults, although the magnitude of effectiveness is on average less than that achieved in other conditions for which growth hormone is licensed. The individual response to therapy is highly variable, and additional studies are needed to identify the responders.”

“Results – Three randomised controlled trials (115 children) met the inclusion criteria. The adult height of the growth hormone treated children exceeded that of the controls by 0.65 SD score (about 4 cm). The mean height gain in treated children was 1.2 SD score compared with 0.34 SD score in untreated children. A slight difference of about 1.2 cm in adult height was observed between the two growth hormone dose regimens. In the seven non-randomised controlled trials the adult height of the growth hormone treated group exceeded that of the controls by 0.45 SD score (about 3 cm).

Conclusions – Growth hormone therapy in children with idiopathic short stature seems to be effective in partially reducing the deficit in height as adults, although the magnitude of effectiveness is on average less than that achieved in other conditions for which growth hormone is licensed. The individual response to therapy is highly variable, and additional studies are needed to identify the responders.”

What are some good hgh supplements?
how much can I expect to gain while on hgh? Are there any bad side effects?

Best answer:

Answer by Eric O
Depends on how much you work out and doesn’t it make your penis smaller? Just eat a protien bar with at least 20g of protien and drink a glass of chocolate milk after you work out.

Will HGH or steroids help me walk normally?
I was involved in a motorcycle accident about a year and a half ago. After 2 surgeries including an ankle fusion, I am still walking with a limp. I am only 24 and I’m really depressed, I am willing to try anything just to walk normal again, please help.
kushhh, the reason these drugs were ever made was for medically purposes but bodybuilders use them because they work so well for what they are trying to do.

Answer by poppinjaw
The only benefit you’ll receive from HGH is increase in muscle mass growth(and only if your an intense weightlifting enthusiast). There are many more negatives than benefits including various forms of lethal cancers and severe intestinal bloating(roid gut).

How can I get my body to produce more hgh?

Answer by Apathy
You can’t, it’s natural production in your body which slows down as you age, nothing you can do about it.

They do not work. They are fake, do you believe everything in advertisements? They can advertise anything they want. HGH only comes in injectable form.

Answer by Cindy in Texas
I would suggest a low carb way of eating to maximize your bodies production of HGH – carbs >9g per hour triggers insulin & insulin suppresses your bodies production of HGH & testosterone – both anabolic hormones.

I highly recommend low carb way of eating for optimal health. It takes 3-6 weeks for the body to become fully fat adapted to perform athletically but the body does convert *if* carb cycling is not used. Athletes studied said their performance was effected the first week or so but recovered to full athletic ability within a few weeks.

For bodybuilders, low carb creates lean tissues even without working out, working out should create even more muscle mass. When insulin dominates the blood stream, testosterone & human growth hormone (HGH) aren’t produced, which are both anabolic hormones & contribute to muscle growth. Excess protein is converted to glucose *unless* dietary fat levels are greater than 80% of dietary calories, then I believe that excess protein is forced to create lean tissues (just as excess carbohydrates are forced to create fat tissues).

Marathon athletes aren’t restricted to glycogen stores. Athletes in glycolysis (using glucose for fuel) have to “carb load” to fill glycogen stores but athletes in ketosis (using fat for fuel) don’t have these restrictions. A normal weighted person has enough fat stores to run for more than 200 hours – glycogen stores only last a few hours before being depleted & the athlete “hits the wall”

from the article below -

Numerous current studies show that dieters who follow high-protein low-carb strategies–even plans with higher fat intake–lose more fat and maintain or gain more muscle mass than dieters who rely on higher carb diets.

Yes, you read that right–many dieters actually gained muscle mass without working out, simply by eating a high-protein diet. This is due to several factors. First, amino acids from protein drive muscle growth. When you consume a high-protein meal, amino acids from the protein travel to muscle cells and actually initiate the processes that cause muscle growth.

I highly recommend adding virgin coconut oil to your diet. All fats can be used for sustained energy, but coconut oil is the (only) fat that can be used for quick energy like a carb.

Carb cycling programs never allow the body to become fully fat adapted, which I believe takes 3-6 weeks. The metabolism just shuts down & awaits a return to glycolysis.

This study referenced:

http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/1/1/2

show that the body (even for athletes) become fat adapted *with time* & allow unimpaired endurance performance despite nutritional ketosis.

“The most obvious of these is the time allotted (or not) for keto-adaptation. In this context, the prescient observation of Schwatka (that adaptation to “a diet of reindeer meat” takes 2–3 weeks) says it all. None of the comparative low-carbohydrate versus high-carbohydrate studies done in support of the carbohydrate loading hypothesis sustained the low carbohydrate diet for more than 2 weeks ….

There are to date no studies that carefully examine the optimum length of this keto-adaptation period, but it is clearly longer than one week and likely well advanced within 3–4 weeks. The process does not appear to happen any faster in highly trained athletes than in overweight or untrained individuals. This adaptation process also appears to require consistent adherence to carbohydrate restriction, as people who intermittently consume carbohydrates while attempting a ketogenic diet report subjectively reduced exercise tolerance.”

I think that ketosis is not the back up fuel plan. I think ketosis was meant to be primary fuel plan, that is easily overridden (one bite) by ingestion of carbs (or alcohol). The body is rarely allowed to become fully fat adapted, especially in these days of people using processed food formula to feed infants instead of breast milk. Carbs were never supposed to be available year around, only seasonally during harvest. The body can easily handle carbs even in excess occasionally, just not continuously. The body can also be fueled by protein (via gluconeogenesis) but long term protein synthesis creates the byproducts of ammonia & nitrogen. The body can easily handle clearing out these byproducts but if gluconeogenesis is used as the primary fuel source for long term, the body can be overwhelmed (poisoned) by the excess ammonia & nitrogen. It’s all contingent on balance but the body functions at optimal levels on more dietary fat & suboptimal levels on less dietary fat.

Growth Hormones or HGH, if I had a lot of them would that help me build muscle and strength or will i be tall?
lets say my body made a ton of them would that help me build muscle and strength? or will i just get tall? what are GH good for?

Best answer:

Answer by machis_64
Mostly tall. You would build a little bit of muscle mass. it really depends on your age to tell what you would get. if your still growing, all you would get is taller though hgh lowers your body fat percentage and increases your lean/muscle percentage. females and males also have different reactions to it. heres an article that i think would help you more on this.
