The Most Effective Hormone Replacement Therapies
Human growth hormone (HGH) has a complex relationship with blood sugar (glucose) levels, lipid metabolism and body fat.
One of the many effects of growth hormone is its significant impact on lipid metabolism, which is directly related to how well your body converts sugar or glucose in the foods you eat into energy. Because of this, there is some fear that taking HGH injections can raise your blood sugar level. For the most part, these fears are largely unfounded. In fact, when used as directed, HGH replacement therapy can actually help you control blood sugar levels and reduce your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
HGH does influence the level of sugar in your blood. However, it is important to note that this is not a "side effect" of growth hormone, as some people believe. One of the natural effects of growth hormone is to do exactly that – raise the level of glucose in your blood.
Human growth hormone is one of the most important hormones produced by your body. Growth hormone triggers and regulates all of the processes of muscle and skeletal growth that allow children to grow into strong, healthy adults. However, even when fully grown, HGH continues to play a critical role in your health and wellness.
HGH maintains muscle and bone health. Growth hormone is vital to healthy metabolism which is largely responsible for the uptake of glucose into cells. It is also responsible for helping you build lean muscle and burn fat more efficiently, and therefore is instrumental in helping you to avoid so-called "metabolic" conditions such as diabetes and insulin resistance. By helping you to maintain a good fat/muscle ratio and a healthy metabolism, HGH also lowers your risk of heart disease.
HGH plays an important role in the activity of insulin. Therefore, there is a link between HGH and the risk of diabetes. Insulin is a hormone produced by your pancreas. The action of insulin allows the glucose (sugar) in the foods you eat to enter your cells and be processed into energy. When the effects of insulin are impaired because you are not producing enough or are not using it correctly, glucose builds up in the blood, causing diabetes.
Growth hormone is one of three hormones produced by your body that are designed to raise blood sugar levels and regulate muscle glucose uptake. The other two are epinephrine and cortisol. In this way, HGH is instrumental in the whole process of sugar metabolism, weight and body composition. As HGH triggers an increase of glucose in the blood, that in turn is supposed to trigger the release of insulin and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor) to move that glucose out of the blood and into your cells.
However, in people with diabetes, that does not happen, and blood sugar levels remain high. Therefore, if you have low HGH levels due to age-related growth hormone loss, your risk of developing type 2 diabetes increases. HGH is essential to turning the fats and sugars in the foods you eat into energy for your cells. People with low HGH have slower metabolisms, less lean muscle, and increased adipose tissue leading to obesity. In that way, people with growth hormone deficiencies are at greater risk of suffering from metabolic conditions such as diabetes.
Boosting HGH levels with growth hormone treatment also improves metabolism so that the body can use the triglycerides (fats) stored in the tissue cells for energy. As you start to lose weight, your HGH levels begin to improve further.
In fact, since growth hormone can help you to build lean muscle and help you lose weight, growth hormone treatment has the net effect of decreasing your risk of developing diabetes. Furthermore, since it improves the action of insulin, HGH therapy, under certain circumstances could be beneficial for people who already have diabetes.
Again, it is important to point out that when properly monitored, most patients are at no greater risk of developing diabetes if they are taking growth hormone injections than if they were not. And, as a 2009 clinical trial published in Diabetologia showed, HGH may help lower insulin levels and improve glucose uptake in tissue cells, thereby lowering your risk of diabetes.
Besides improving your metabolism which can lead to more energy, weight loss and better blood sugar controls, there are many other benefits of HGH Therapy for adults who have been diagnosed with "age related," or adulthood-onset growth hormone deficiency.
The “before and after” results you can expect from HGH injection therapy include:
These are just a few of the many beneficial effects of HGH injections for adults. However, the only way to know if you qualify for HGH therapy is to follow the following steps.
We cannot stress enough the importance of only using HGH with a doctor’s prescription. The complex relationship between blood glucose levels, insulin, and insulin resistance is only one of the many reasons why growth hormone treatments should only be used with the oversight of a healthcare professional. It is not only illegal to use HGH without a prescription, but it could also be hazardous to your health to do so.
However, getting a prescription for HGH is not difficult. In fact, at Kingsberg Medical, it only takes these five steps:
