What is Hgh Optimization?
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is a natural hormone produced in the pituitary gland of the brain. HGH is responsible for youth, vitality, energy and all of the health benefits we associate with youth
During childhood, HGH supports our continued growth. Then, even after we reach our full growth potential in adulthood, HGH continues to play an important role in keeping our metabolism efficient. However, as we get older and our bodies stop producing enough HGH, our metabolic rates decrease, leading to fatigue, loss of lean body mass, weight gain, hypertension and the other ailments commonly associated with aging.
Growth, digestion, reproduction, and sexual function are all triggered by hormones and they all depend on each other to work properly. HGH in particular, is critical for tissue repair, healing, muscle growth, bone strength, brain function, physical and mental health, energy, and metabolism.
The production of HGH, and its metabolite IGF-1, decreases with age, approximately 2-4% each year on average. We normally produce about 800 micrograms of HGH daily at age 20. By age 80, the daily production falls to 60 (or lees) micrograms.
The medical term for low HGH in adults is Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency, or AGHD. This can mean you experience several different symptoms, many of which directly affect not just your body composition but also your mood and emotions. This is thought to occur because HGH plays an important part in managing psychological feelings besides helping growth and other physical processes to occur.
Until recently the effects of low HGH in adults were unknown. It is now recognized as a specific clinical syndrome with a number of different physiological and psychological consequences that affect the following:
