Influence of the Human Growth Hormone on Men
The effects of the growth hormone in men have been studied extensively. One of studies includes the research made by Nagraj et al., published by the New England Journal of Medicine in 1990. This study deals with the influence that this hormone has on men, above sixty years of age.
It was found that in men of around sixty years of age, the IGF-1 levels were less than 350 Units per liter. For the trial, 12 men, aged sixty years and above, were given the growth hormone for six months. The levels of IGF-1 were monitored, since, it stimulates the effects of the growth hormone.
The GH was given thrice a week, subcutaneously. All individuals in the study were on a normal diet. All the men who were given the hormone were observed to have maintained good health. Results demonstrated that the levels of IGF-1 increased from 200 to 250 units per liter to about 850 units per liter. The constitution of the body also changed in these men. The lean muscle mass increased by approximately 9 percent and the bone mineral density increased by nearly 2 percent. The body fats were reduced by nearly 15 percent. The thickness of the skin also increased, indicating reversing of aging. The control group, who did not receive the hormone, did not exhibit any beneficial changes. These changes that were observed in the aged men, after giving the hormone, were similar to those that would be present in them when they were twenty to forty years of age.
In another study carried out by Dr. Rudman and colleagues, published in Journal of hormone research, the volunteers comprised of forty five men of sixty-one years. They had IGF-1 levels in the plasma at around 0.35 Units per milliliter, which reveals that the GH secretions were negligible. The growth hormone was administered to the group for twenty-one months. There was a control group too, which did not receive any treatment. The hormone levels were monitored with the help of IGF-1 levels. After 21 months of therapy, the results observed were wonderfully good. The IGF-1 levels were raised to 0.5 to 1.5 Units/milliliter. An enhancement in the lean body mass, fat content reduction, anti-aging effects, increased energy levels, etc, were observed.
