HGH (human growth hormone) It’s a protein based poly-pepitide Produced by the pituitary gland in the brain. Used to stimulate growth, and cell reproduction and regeneration in humans and other animals.

Side effects Increased risk of diabetes High blood pressure Arthritis Joint swelling Joint pain Carpal tunnel syndrome Headache Nausea, vomititing

How HGH methods work Injection: a synthetic substance injected into the body. They tend to be very expensive a single injections costs as much as $29. Oral Spray: not scientifically proven to have an effect. Some say they see results faster then the other methods. Natural releasers: they increase the HGH levels in our bodies. They are like vitamins taken in a tablet form. Usually taken just before bed seeing how the pituitary gland is most active during sleep.

HGH prescriptions It is legal to take human growth hormones if prescribed by a physician.

BUSTED Serious sentencing if you get caught selling human growth hormone pills. Fines could be up to,250,00.
