Hgh?

Hey, you guys all seem really helpful (and hot in many cases). i was wondering if anyone had any info on HGH (Human Growth Hormone) from first hand experience. I can't trust what I read online anymore, one site says "its the best thing ever" and one site says "its a total scam". I'd rather hear from real people.
Thanks.

I use hgh replacement daily for gh deficiency. It is a very low dose, really only what my body should produce. Even getting my blood level up to normal, hgh is not a miracle. In too high doses it can cause insulin resistance which can lead to diabetes. In a word, hgh is not what it's cracked up to be. It is not the fountain of youth, nor will it reverse the graying of your hair, as some people claim.

It can also cause edema and the infamous 'roid gut' which I suspect is not that the internal organs have enlarged, but rather it is abdominal fat deposited by insulin resistance. I will bet that any of the pro bbers (Coleman, Cutler, et al) have very high levels of serum insulin and slightly elevated blood glucose. They use hgh by the boatload. I also have insulin resistance (not caused by my hgh according to my endo), and I have a roid gut, though it is shrinking with closer attention to diet and more consistent cardio.
