What Are the Ingredients of HGH Factor?

Your body naturally produces human growth hormone, or HGH. It is used stimulate cell reproduction and regeneration and support growth. Doctors also use HGH medically to treat growth deficiency in children. Additionally, some people use HGH to slow the aging process and improve athletic performance. HGH Factor is a health supplement that combines both a stimulator and releaser. Although this supplement is not HGH, the manufacturers claim that the supplement will help your body manufacture its own HGH. Speak with a medical professional prior to taking HGH Factor as research has not confirmed its safety or effectiveness.

Stimulator Ingredients

HGH Factor Stimulator ingredients include L-glutamine, L-arginine, L-lysine, L-valine, L- isoleucine and L-tyrosine. These amino acids support protein synthesis, muscle repair, regulation of minerals and the production of different hormones in your body. The manufacturer claims that combining these amino acids stimulates the natural production of the HGH hormone in your body.

HGH Releaser

HGH Factor also includes several additional ingredients that the manufacturer claims will promote the release of the naturally produced HGH hormone in your body. Specifically, this HGH releaser contains, shilajit moomiyo, a mineral complex that helps your body to heal and build muscle, l-alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine, a natural compound found in found in your brain that improves mental health and body function and gamma-aminobutyric acid, a neurotransmitter responsible for regulating muscle tone.

Human Growth Hormone

Human growth hormone is a complex hormone that doctors do not fully understand. The growth hormone supports growth and cell reproduction. Too much of this hormone can cause pituitary gigantism. On the other hand, too little HGH can cause growth failure and other deformations. Although athletes sometimes use HGH to improve athletic performance, no clinical evidence confirms that HGH can improve athletic performance.

Effects of HGH Factor

The manufacturers of HGH factor claim that this supplement will increase your body's natural production and release of the HGH hormone. This increased production and release can increase tissue repair for muscle growth and invigorate cell regeneration in your bones, muscle and vital organs. Additionally, the manufacturer claims that the increased HGH will also boost your stamina and endurance levels, increase the metabolism of fat tissue and help your immune system fight infections. This supplement is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration, nor has the FDA evaluated the claims made by the product's manufacturer.
