HGH usage has been subjected to extensive study and the reports are amazing. The findings have been embraced by the public, leading to publication in important journals like the New England Journal of Medicine.
An eight percent increase in muscle mass, an average 4.4% fat loss, and weight reduction with no dieting were among the benefits reported in these studies. Also reported was a loss of cellulite, wrinkle reduction, younger looking skin, enhanced memory, clearer vision, deeper sleep, lowered blood pressure, improved cholesterol levels, increased cardiac function and many other health benefits.

Large amounts of money and thousands of man hours have been expended on numerous efforts by giant drug companies attempting to find products that give any one of these benefits. Now that you know that there is a product on the market that combines so many of these great benefits into one incredible substance, you will of course start to think about what the downside of this product could be.
When you take large doses of any drug you can experience negative side effects. HGH taken in excess can therefore cause some very alarming side effects. Genetics vary greatly from person to person and influence how each person reacts to the same hormone dosages substantially.
The most extreme HGH side effects have been seen in body builders and athletes who have in all likelihood taken abusively high doses over long periods of time. Cases such as these have been known to produce unusual growths with unnaturally large bones being one characteristic. Time has shown there is a possibility of heart damage, irregular cardiac rhythms, and joint and facial deformities from prolonged usage.
Abuse of the drug has been documented to be the cause of most hgh side effects. The side effects of HGH can be reduced by strictly following the dosage prescribed by your doctor and by limiting the time the hormone is used. By injecting minimal amounts, you can significantly lessen the chance of negative reactions.
In some of the initial studies there have been a few recorded cases of patients who suffered from carpal tunnel syndrome, and a condition of enlarged breasts called gynecomastia. Other side effects that have been documented are high blood pressure, swollen joints and chronic joint pain, increased hair growth, and retention of internal fluids.
Stress to the liver and even liver damage can take place when the organ has to process big quantities of the synthetic forms of HGH in the blood.The danger of your pituitary releasing less HGH as a result of increased synthetic levels in the blood is also real. This could even lead to a situation where the pituitary gland stop functioning.
A person should look at all the consequences of HGH therapy before deciding if it is right for them. Making informed decisions is important as well as weighing all the consequences and researching various options.
