Human Growth Hormone is naturally produced in the human body and it determines how large cells grow as well as how quickly they divide. It also determines how efficiently the cells release proteins. Additionally, Human Growth Hormone can affect how the cells use carbohydrates and fats. All of these characteristics work together to show that Human Growth Hormone does have an effect on increases lean mass and decreasing fat.

History of Human Growth Hormone
It was first extracted from the pituitary gland of dead bodies. However, this form of Human Growth Hormone was found to sometimes carry a brain disease. Human Growth Hormone was used for children who had a lack of production of natural Human Growth Hormone in their bodies and this brain disease then began showing up in them.

Now, Human Growth Hormone is no longer extracted from cadavers and there is also a "fake" version of it as well (called HCG).

About Human Growth Hormone
While Human Growth Hormone is naturally produced in the body, its levels vary based on many factors including diet and exercise. It is usually produced in its greatest levels in children when the body is growing. Adults produce less Human Growth Hormone because the body doesn't need it for natural growing purposes. One way to increase the levels of Human Growth Hormone in the system is to take supplements of it.

Because it is a naturally occurring substance in the body, however, taking supplements of Human Growth Hormone can actually cause the body to stop producing it.

Human Growth Hormone is known for helping weight gain as well as increasing muscle mass, but it's not so great for increasing strength. Generally, studies show that taking Human Growth Hormone accompanied by exercise can help reduce the lack of strength, however.

Other side effects of using Human Growth Hormone include edema (swelling of feet and hands), tingling or numbness in the feet and hands and decreases in insulin reception and thyroid function.

Since Human Growth Hormone increases the growth rate and size of cells, this includes cancer cells, so it is not recommended that people with cancer or a high risk of cancer use Human Growth Hormone.
