Human growth hormone is important for body mass, strength and performance but how can
you naturally increase human growth human, in this video i'm going to discuss 4 key herbs
and also some tips to help you boost human growth hormone production,
You ready
let's go
You may have heard of a GH Gut. GH gut is the extremely enlarged belly in bodybuilders.
This is caused or associated with growth hormone abuse, when growth hormone is injected into
the body. The reason for this abuse is that growth hormone helps build muscle
mass, boost metabolism, and burn fat, all key things for bodybuilding .
Well we all produce HGH naturally. It is a hormone secreted by our pituitary gland. At
different ages of our life, different levels of HGH are produced. For example, In children
more growth hormone is produced as it aids growth, the production continues and peaks
during puberty, after which it starts to decline with age. This gradual decline starts to happen
after the age of 30.
It’s worth noting that growth hormone and testosterone are both potent anabolic hormones
and play a role in protein synthesis and muscle development so the bodybuilding crew will
find this video extremely interesting. It’s said that Testosterone actually enhances the
effect of growth hormone too. So this is something you will need to bear in mind.
So what is a growth hormone? Growth hormone is a peptide hormone that stimulates
growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration.It’s a key hormone for men and women.
This hormone is so important that it’s market for it is being used is predicted to be $5
billion by 2026.If you’ve had experience with a product comment below.
Before we get into the herbs, as we always do, it’s good to go over things you can
do right now to slow down the human growth hormone decline and help you boost it.
So here are 5 things you can do right now to help boost your immune system
The first is fasting
Fasting has been called the secret of anti aging. And one of the reasons for this is
fasting can help increase the length of telomeres. telomeres act as the aging clock in every
cell. Studies show that fasting enhances growth hormone secretion and amplifies the complex
rhythms of growth hormone secretion but also studies suggest that GH could activate telomerase,
and telomerase is active in regenerative tissues. Basically helping to slow down aging
Cut a long story short, fasting is very beneficial for growth hormone but it also has a vast
amount of benefits, so if you want the benefits of fasting with herbs video, comment below
and let me know. I also have a fasting group on instagram, if you want to join, just follow
and dm on @dungubook
In short, fasting is very good for the body’s natural release of growth hormone
The second is monitoring your diet
Food plays an important role in growth hormone production. For example, eating refined carbohydrates
that spike the blood sugar and lead to an insulin response has been associated with
reduced growth levels, so it’s better if you limit the amount of sugar you eat. But
Also, the time you eat, it’s suggested that you should not eat foods that may spike your
insulin before bed. Food high in melatonin, amino acids like casein, agenine, beta alanine,
vitamin d, vitamin c, and good fats are essential to growth hormone. You can understand more
about some of nutrient sources in my new nutrition book, link in bio
One study looked at the effects of melatonin on certain pituitary hormone secretions and
found that a 0.5mg dose all the way up to a 5mg dose increased the amount of growth
hormone (among other hormones) that was released over the course of 24 hours
In short, mind your diet and eating time to aid your body’s own hormone production.
Third is exercise
Exercise is
a big key for human growth hormone. Key compound movements like squats, deadlifts and clean
and press at high intensity have been shown to have a positive effect on growth hormone.
aLSO, exercises but in general, is good for hgh.
Fourth is body composition
As with testosterone a key thing you can do right now to boost both is to work on your
body fat percentage. Research suggests that lowering belly fat helps boost human growth
hormone and studies show that people who's growth hormone has declined faster than average
due to their weight, once they lost weight, it returned back to normal.
So guys, ensure you’re not storing fat around the belly area, work on it. Eat well, exercise
and burn fat.
The last important factor is sleep
How much sleep should you have, well, it’s recommended that you get around 7.5 HOURS
TO 8 HOURS daily, AS STUDIES SUGGEST THAT growth hormone PRODUCTION HAPPENS IN PULSES
THROUGH OUT THE NIGHT, one in the first hour after you have fallen asleep then every 3
hours after that. To sleep well, avoid blue lights before sleep, install f.lux on your
laptop, use your phone in night mode as these can affect melatonin levels, melatonin is
crucial for growth hormone too.
So guys, as always, these are some things you can do right now to have some benefit.
But it’s worth looking into some symptoms that you may be low in growth hormone. Some
of the most common symptoms include difficulty sleeping, balding, love handles or fat around
the abdomen, Decrease in sexual function and interest. Decreased muscle mass and strength.
All these could be to do with low growth hormone
So without further adieu, let’s get into the herbs. I’m going to real them off relatively
quickly, if you prefer it like this, make sure you'd rop alike
The first herb is tribulus terrestris
Early studies in mice suggest that use of this herb resulted in stimulation of growth
hormone (GH) secretion from anterior pituitary gland.
This is herb i've mentioned previously in other videos, I’ve recently started taking
it too and although I’ve been eating very clean, I do think it has aided in fat loss
from around the belly area and this could be to do with it’s hormonal benefits as
it’s been said to have an affect on other body hormones too, namely testosterone. It
was shown in research by the Chemical Pharmaceutical Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria that the herb
stimulates the pituitary gland, this is important to help with growth hormone.
Also, the release GH production is controlled by a complex set of hormones produced in the
hypothalamus and the steroidal saponins in Tribulus appear to bind with receptors within
the hypothalamus of the brain helping balance hormone levels
The second herb is ginkgo biloba
This is one of the first herbs I bought back in 2012, a powerful herb and perhaps the next
video on this channel will be a full benefit of ginkgo video, if that's something you want
to see make sure you comment below.
Studies show that gingko can have a positive effect of growth hormone upregulation. It’s
worth noting that GH is also in the brain, studies show that growth hormone can boost
memory retention in animals. Ginkgo is also powerful for the brain
A study in rats shows ginkgo has an effect on growth hormone. This may show promise but
as always remember, there animal trials aren't always extrapolated to humans.
Humans studies and studies in terms of herbs and growth hormone aren't as detailed or well
explored just yet so many extrapolations have to be made. Before you try anything it’s
always good to consult someone or do your own research.
The third herb is fenugreek
Early studies show that this vegetable stimulates the release of growth hormone and can boost
energy levels. One of these studies conducted in 2008 showed that rats fed fenugreek stimulate
growth-hormone release in the pituitary cells. Not many human studies have yet been conducted
but this may show some promise.
Others studies It may specifically have an impact on growth hormone by Stimulating the
pituitary gland.
Fenugreek is particularly abundant in steroidal compounds, such as glycosides and saponins,
which may be capable of stimulating the pituitary gland to secret growth hormone alongside other
hormones such as luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone .
The fourth herb is oolong tea
Oolong tea contains phenols that boost the secretion of
growth hormone.
In summary, look after your diet, monitor your eating times, avoid foods that spike
the blood sugar, avoid eating late, exercise, especially high intensity, get good sleep,
also, these herbs have been shown in at least one study to have an affect,these herbs are
oolong tea, fenugreek, ginkgo biloba and tribulus terrestris
