Research suggests a direct link between deep sleep and the ageing process. Not getting enough deep sleep may speed up the ageing process, a study has suggested.
PASADENA, CA--(Marketwire - June 26, 2008) - Production of human growth hormone, a decline in which may accelerate aging, is significantly reduced when deep sleep is inadequate, according to a recent study. Although men do have sleep problems, they are far more prevalent in women. In fact, the average woman sleeps less than 6.5 hours per night during the entire work week. Feelgoodforlife.com offers tips on how to improve women's health by resolving sleep issues with nutritional supplements.
Let's take a look at a major contributor to the aging process and what it can tell us about slowing the ravages of time on our health. The factor we will explore is cortisol, a hormone that controls dozens of vital functions in the body. When cortisol levels are too high or too low, rapid-aging processes accelerate.
What and when you eat at the end of the day can have a large impact on your body. If you eat the right thing at the right time you can actually lose fat while you sleep. Eat the wrong thing at the wrong time and you can plan on waking up with a little more body fat in the morning.
To successfully loss weight, you'll need to stop eating two hours before going to bed. You should not feel hungry before bed, but you should also not feel completely full. When you're trying to lose weight, going to bed at night feeling slightly hungry is actually a good thing. It's your body telling you that what you did that day is working and you're losing body fat. If you don't feel this way when going to bed, you're probably not losing fat.
Now lets say you follow your brain's directive and eat close to bedtime, your body will not dip into the fat it has stored away, and will probably even store some more. Every time you eat, your metabolism increases slightly. However, this effect is minimized late at night. You don't get the same metabolism boosting benefit when you eat just before bed, because a couple of hours after dinner, your body will start preparing for sleep. This natural slowing down of your metabolic rate overrides any metabolic boost you might get from eating. So once you hit the pillow, the only calories you're going to use are the basic calories you need to keep your heart beating and your lungs breathing and allow your eyes to move in REM sleep. This is only a minimal number of calories.
Introduction to Human Growth Hormone
By HRT Medical Staff
As one unnamed cocky news reporter put it,
"Unless you're sleeping under a rock, you've
probably heard about human growth hormone (HGH)".
We see and hear
HGH Human Growth Hormone mentioned on TV news, or read about it
in all major newspapers and magazines in either paper form or digitally
on the Internet. Many sports athletes and famous Hollywood actors
are using HGH for everything from gaining a competitive sports advantage
or for simple youthful medical enhancement including anti-aging,
skin, brain, bone, muscle, joint and organ regeneration. HGH is
being labelled the "anti-aging and longevity miracle"
because of the numerous studies suggesting its ability to turn back
the clock helping people look and feel younger internally and externally.
Despite the
hype there are large numbers of traditional "old school"
doctors coming out against HGH saying its benefits are minimal and
many "progressive" and "forward-thinking" doctors
coming out in favor of HGH. On the ballance there seems to be more
research pointing to HGH in moderate doses offering significant
health benefits. Ultimately time will tell the truth as millions
of people around the world are rushing to use HGH.
Internationally recognized Rocky & Rambo Star Sylvester Stallone,
Got busted in Australia with HGH and allegedly "misplaced"
his doctor's prescription, he was scolded by an Australian
judge and ordered to pay a $2000+ fine. Stallone who is in his 60's,
but claims to have the energy and vitality of a 35 year old athlete
credits part of his quality of life directly to human growth hormone
usuage. Sly Stallone has publically stated to the media -to paraphrase
-that he believe in 10 years (or less) HGH will become an over the
counter product. When the smoke of controversy clears and congress
looks closer at the research, Stallone's statements might
be vindicated, but until then a Doctors script is required for Human
Growth Hormone Therapy.
And since
"winning is everything" HGH is being used by many prominent
professional and Olympic athletes in every sport known to humankind
for significant performance enhancement (yes even brain sports like
math / mental calculation, chess and poker) and more specifically
to create a real advantage over competitors in physically oriented
sports, but use of Human Growth Hormone is not FDA approved for
sports enhancement or body building and therefore HGH use is illegal
for these two specific purposes, this fact causes many people to
think HGH is completely illegal. HGH is not illegal for adults over
the age of 30 seeking genuine anti-aging and regeneration medicine
to overcome HGH deficiencies AKA "premature" aging,
blood work, a physical exam and an anti-aging doctors prescription
are required.
A little search engine research (SEO) concerning the popularity
of search terms HGH or Human Growth Hormone on the top two search
engines Google and Yahoo (both control about 90% of total Internet
searches together) shows the similar terms of HGH and Human Growth
Hormone are searched some where beyond 20,000 times per day online
– not bad!
As a result of the explosive popularity of Human Growth Hormone
being used for more than just genuine medical anti-aging purposes,
congress and the FDA are holding hearings and stirring up even more
controversy over this very misunderstood, but amazing protein called
Human Growth Hormone.
Maintaining Natural Production of HGH when on an HGH therapy
program or increasing your own natural production of HGH without
HGH therapy.
Getting the best
results maintaining healthy HGH levels with and without Injectable
Human Growth Hormone HGH: The human guide to longevity and cell
regeneration medicine and understanding these most crucial elements
of maintaining good HGH.
In general to get the
best results with or without an HGH replacement therapy program
requires one to incorporate an overall healthy lifestyle:
1. regular intense exercise
including cardio 90 minutes a day 6 days a week and weight lifting
every other day (4 days a week) upper and lower body alternating,
2. take multivitamins,
vitamin D and Calcium supplements, amino acids & Omega 3 (fish
oil) supplements,
3. a low caloric diet
of raw, warm and steamed foods 5 to 6 meals a day.
4. No less than 8 hours
of sleep.
5. No Vices: Coffee,
Alcohol, Cigarettes or Drugs.
An HGH protocol that
works best for you must be customized to your height, weight, age,
blood work, physical exam and medical history, there is no one size
fits all program when doing an HRT (hormone replacement therapy)
program using Human Growth Hormone.
Human Growth
Hormone HGH & Diet:
Five to Six small meals
per day. Strictly follow a healthy, nutritious, nutrient dense and
calorie restricted diet. Limit consumption of sugar (a study showed
that sugar diminish Growth Hormone secretion). Several studies have
shown that being over overweight and suffering from obesity can
significantly shorten ones life span and lead to a higher incidence
of all kinds of disease.
Repeated studies have shown that moderate caloric restriction can
prolong life span up to 30% in humans and animals. The best diet
based on human evolution is one involving eating raw foods, eating
enough fresh fruits, raw and steamed vegetables, nuts, grains and
seeds. Avoid processed foods to the best of your ability. Eat enough
calories from fruits, vegetables, meat (limit red meat), eggs and
fish.
Try to eat organic foods,
because non-organic foods have pesticides which can cause genetic
damage and upset your hormone levels.
Try to avoid alcohol,
caffeinated or carbonated drinks, processed cereal fiber, non-organic
milk products.
Make fighting obesity
the central focus of your diet. Fat tissue is rich in Aromatase
enzyme and converts testosterone to estradiol and inactivates testosterone.
Estradiol (17ß-estradiol) (also oestradiol) is a sex hormone.
Mislabelled the "female" hormone, it is also present in
males; it represents the major estrogen in humans.
Naturally Increase
HGH with Exercise:
Regular exercise is the
best way to naturally increase you HGH production and your body's
ability to process it. Moreover, aging is associated with weaker
muscles, lower bone mass and less flexibility. Several studies have
shown that exercise prolongs life, decreases heart disease, and
lowers high blood pressure and stroke rates. Aerobic exercise is
very important for maintaining a healthy vascular system which is
a central factor in longevity, vitality and health. Exercise a minimum
of 4-6 times a week doing aerobic activities (running, jogging,
bicycling, dancing) in conjunction with weight training.
Human Growth Hormone & Dietary Supplements:
Take adequate amounts
of nutrients and supplements.
Take a good multi-vitamin
that requires you to take more than one vitamin a day, so the supplements
are spread out over a given day. Be sure your supplement regimen
has enough anti-oxidants - RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) is
usually insufficient for the desired health effects. In the American
Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine Desk Reference you can find out about
the recommended doses. Take the time to do the research. You might
also want to get blood work done to see which vitamins and minerals
your body has a problem metabolizing and think about increasing
those specific vitamin and minerals.
General Rules
with HGH Therapy Summarized
* Use at bedtime or morning. The pituitary gland's highest secretion
of HGH is usually at night during deep sleep.
* Get a full 7 to 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Insufficient sleep
might prevent the deep sleep period during which HGH secretion is
highest. Also, full sleep is required to allow your body enough
time to do all of the tissue maintenance required to avoid decline.
* Get proper nutrition including a good multivitamin. Your body
needs the supplies to do all of the tissue maintenance required
to avoid decline.
* Use before exercise. Exercise also stimulates your pituitary gland
to secret more HGH. Strength (resistance) exercises cause more HGH
secretion than aerobic exercise. Strength exercises that use the
legs cause the largest increase because your legs have the largest
muscles in your body.
Sermorelin is a biological active analog of growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) that is produced by the human brain to stimulate production and release of growth hormone by the pituitary gland. During youth, ample amounts of GHRH are produced so that the pituitary is able to provide the body with sufficient growth hormone to sustain health, vitality and otherwise normal aspects of form and function. However, during aging, GHRH declines causing reduced production and secretion of pituitary hGH and thereby increasing the sequelae of growth hormone insufficiency that erodes health, vigor and vitality during later life.
Semorelin is the acetate salt of an amidated synthetic amino acid polypeptide, consisting of the first 29 of 44 amino acids of naturally occurring Human Growth Hormone-releasing hormone (GH-H) in the body. Semorelin acetate is the last of the hypothalmic-releasing hormones to be identified and characterized, and represents the shortest fragment of GH-RH known to possess the full biological activity of the parent hormone known as Human Growth Hormone-releasing hormone (GH-H).
In contrast to increasing growth hormone levels by the injection of biosynthetic or Bio-identical Human Growth Hormone, GH-RH injections increase plasma growth hormone concentrations in patients with idiopathic growth hormone deficiency, by directly stimulating the pituitary gland to release natural Human Growth Hormone. Semorelin acetate for injection (GH-RH ) is similar to natural GH-RH with respect to its ability to stimulate HGH secretions in humans.
GH-RH for injection has been effective in the treatment of growth hormone deficiency in children. The clinic anticipates that GH-RH will also be effective in the treatment of adult growth hormone deficiency because it has been effective in the treatment of children, and because HGH has already proven itself to effective in cases of adult growth hormone deficiency. The GH-RH used by the clinic has been studied for 12 years in more than 70 clinical trials in over 2,600 child patients totaling more than 485 patient years of treatment.
Growth hormone releasing hormone for injection was approved for use in children by the FDA in 1997, and became available to the clinic in 1998. It is an experimental clinic treatment with regards to adult patients who are prescribed about half the dose of a small child. Prior clinic approval is required to participate in the adult clinical trial program conducted by the clinic. This therapy has great potential for adults who have growth hormone deficiency and seek to reverse the effects of aging or treat a medical disorder. A patient who is unsatisfied with the results obtained through GH-GH therapy may elect to be treated thereafter with HGH replacement therapy or vice versa.
Typically each bottle of Sermorelin, we have you put 3cc�€™s (3ml) of the bacteria static water into it. This is done by tilting the bottle to a 45 degree angle and allowing the water to drip in from the needle slowly so there is no foaming, contact us for the specific protocol for mixing the bacteria static water with the sermorelin white powder to create a clear liquid sermorelin which is used for injecting.
Doing a dose of 300mcg a night, you would pull 30 on the insulin needle �€" this dose would make one bottle last 10 days, thus it would take 3 bottles to last one month
Doing a dose of 200mcg a night, you would pull 20 on the insulin needle, this dose would last 15 days and thus, it would take 2 bottles to last one month.
Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy Using a Pre-Cursor Secretagogue Analog (Sermorelin)
A Secretagogue is a substance that promotes secretion, for instance the Secretagogue for Human Growth Hormone production, ie. The substance that tells your pituitary gland to increase HGH production is GHRH (growth Hormone Releasing Hormone) Sermorelin is a polypeptide chain that mimics the effects of Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone �€" the substances that naturally tells your pituitary gland to increase HGH production. Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) Therapy: Sermorelin, is a Human Growth Hormone HGH �€œSecretagogue�€� delivered through subcutaneous Injection - GH-RH (1-29)
Growth hormone deficiency in adults occurs when the naturally occurring pituitary hormone known as Human Growth Hormone is produced in inadequate quantities with a resulting deficiency in growth hormone and IGF-1 levels in the blood stream. Growth hormone deficiency includes a spectrum that ranges from a complete lack of growth hormone through various degrees of partial growth hormone deficiency. Most people after the age of 25 to 30 begin a process of human growth hormone deficiency that accelerates at a loss rate of 1 to 2% per year, depending on ones own genetic makeup, diet, exercise and lifestyle.
In contrast to supplementing the growth hormone deficiency through injections of exogenous recombinant Human Growth Hormone (HGH), another therapy, GH-RH therapy involves the use of GH-RH injections that cause the body�€™s pituitary gland to secrete greater quantities of naturally produced Human Growth Hormone. The body therefore naturally produces its own growth hormone to supplement the deficiency as a result of GH-RH therapy.
Sprays and Pills
are the least effective ways to increase the amount of human growth
hormone in your body. Do a search on google for HGH or the keyword
Human Growth Hormone and look carefully at all the web sites promoting
sprays and pills, they are typically the least effective and can
be very expensive.
The best way
to increase Human Growth Hormone in your body is with exercise,
a healthy diet, growth hormone releasing hormone injections or HGH
injections.
Most people
who use the pills and sprays either give up on HGH or do a little
more research and discover Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone injections
of Human Growth Hormone injections.
