Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Duncan, et al, I took a reputable generic hGH for 9 months. When I start again soon I have decided to spend the approx 1/3 more to get either Humatrope or Genotropin. I have done Humatrope a little, enough to know it IS better than generic. You get what you pay for. If you want to go the injection route, get the Lilly or Genentech product. You will be glad you did. Do a good one, even if you have to do less of it. jim Duncan Crow wrote: >Incidentally, to look for cheap injectable HGH, use offshore HGH keywords to locate Mexican product for a fraction of the US >prices.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 So, Jim, how much money are we talking about for a 'good' one? Deanna Re: (amino stacking) danger?

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Deanna, I expect prices would be going down. About 18 months ago I was getting offered $11/per IU for a good generic. Humatrope was going for $15 from the same vendor. You can shop around with a good doctor who isn't making a cut from the pharmacist. That's what's happening if you can only buy from the pharmacies that the MD recommends. If you're paying over $20 a unit, the MD is a thief, unless prices have skyrocketed! The average dose is 1 IU per day, usually recommended in 2 - 1/2 IU doses. My Rx was 2 IU daily. I got tired of the 2X needles so I switched to once a day. They say it is less effective, but I didn't notice much difference. There was a lot of discussion about molecule size & would it go thru a #30 needle. I settled on #29, and you don't even feel them unless they hit a pain sensor right on the head - about 1 in 7 chance. I learned a lot on the Rejuvenation list on yahoogroups.com. I found it a rude list, but very informative. The listowner makes a living in Mexico City by arranging trips for Americans who want to come down & get their batch of Humatrope, which sells in MExico. In the US, by some agreement, Humatrope is only available in the US for pediatric use. Politics. If you can afford to buy say $5000 at a time, you can save a lot by going to Mexico. Something like $7 IU? The hGH molecule has 126 or 127 genes. Humatrope is considered better than Genotropin because Genentech's is 1 gene short of a perfect match, where Humatrope is an exact match. Either is better than a generic, IMO. jim Deanna wrote: >So, Jim, how much money are we talking about for a 'good' one? >Deanna > Re: (amino stacking) danger?

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Jim, I was told by a member of the rejuvenation list that a person only has a small amount of hgh, and that the AAs will stimulate release of it, and then that is " IT " ; there is no more. Injectables on the other hand, ARE hgh, and so there is no " using up " of it. What's the skinny? BTW, I havebeen taking the SomaLife for 3 weeks....and 'm satisfied with the results. I do construction work ( age 50) and there used to be many evenings where I would not go out after work from lack of energy. This is another area of improvement. I go out and look forward to it. This is after a day of a 1-1 1/2 hr, workout and then the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 alltogether, You said it pretty well. The secretagogues probably get more out of the pituitary than was there before them, because the ingredients include precursor goodies. Give the brain nutrients & it will make the goods for you. I call my brain nutrients the " happy pills. " Feed the brain & it gets happy. Do not construe this to mean your problems will go away. But you will handle them better. And, yes, if you inject hGH, YOU GET HAPPier QUICKer! I used to kid that you could put me on a rack & stretch me 6 inches, and I would still be happy! ;-) At least, most people do & the rest aren't scare stories. Donna says she didn't like it. I forget why. Donna? SHe prefers colostrum & her brand is the best! I get mine from her. It is g-double-O-good stuff! Colostrum is like injections in the sense that it isn't a seecretagogue. Colostrum contains many IGF's, not just IGF-1. It is Nature's magick to fix up babies and make them happy! And, it isn't age or specie specific! It is good stuff. BTW, they feed the calves first, and harvest only the extra, of which there is plenty. jim alltogethernow@... wrote: >Jim, I was told by a member of the rejuvenation list that a person only >has a small amount of hgh, and that the AAs will stimulate release of >it, and then that is " IT " ; there is no more. > Injectables on the other hand, ARE hgh, and so there is no " using up " >of it. > > What's the skinny? > > BTW, I havebeen taking the SomaLife for 3 weeks....and 'm satisfied >with the results. > I do construction work ( age 50) and there used to be many evenings >where I would not go out after work from lack of energy.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Jim, So do I understand correctly that you'll be doing both the colostrum and the injections? Or not? If so, what might be the advantages to this, or if not, the disadvantages? Please tell me in terms that a very ignorant person with brain fog might comprehend. Thanks a bunch.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Hi Deanna, I am curious. Why do you have brain fog and what do you mean by that term, as people oftentimes attach a meaning to a term and then assume that everyone else has attached an identical meaning. Much Goodwill, Re: (amino stacking) danger? (Duncan) Jim, So do I understand correctly that you'll be doing both the colostrum and the injections? Or not?

Is it injected directly into an artery or vein? Or is it injected into a muscle? The reason I ask is I was wondering if it wouldn't be just as effective to mix it with some DMSO and just absorb it through the skin, rather than inject it. And yes, I hate needles - not as much about the pain, but I just don't like the idea of injections - seems contrary to 'nature', if you get my drift.

My take on this would be: It depends. If you make no other changes in your lifestyle, and continue to eat the S.A.D. diet - which caused the drop in hGH production (among other things) in the first place - then yes, taking the AA stack could simply over-stimulate an already overwrought gland to its last gasps... On the other hand... If you change your lifestyle to one that supports your body's natural ability to heal and rejuvenate itself, then the above statement is laughable. The pituitary gland is not a *storage* facility - it *produces* - aka, *generates*, hGH (among other things), and it does so until the day you die. The reason its production slowly drops off is *not* because you have crossed some imaginary line of 'fertility', as someone else suggested - it is because the average American eats dead and adulterated garbage that both pollute and deplete the body, instead of living foods that promote internal cleanliness and provide lots of 'raw' (pun intended) material tha the body can easily to use to manufacture everything from enzymes and amino acids to hGH and seratonin, etc, etc... The body is a marvelous piece of engineeing - all we have to do is learn how to maintain it (thanks, Saul, for the manual!)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
