rhGH (recombinant human Growth Hormone, Somatropin) is a bio-synthetic FDA approved prescription hormone replacement medication that is rDNA derived & bio-identical w/ 191 amino acid sequence endogenous Anterior Pituitary hGH (Somatotropin)

Medical studies repeatedly demonstrate that physician directed rhGH therapy and testosterone therapy both have positive effects on many of the diseases associated with aging: cardiovascular disease, mental decline, low energy / fatigue, depression, dementia, body composition (muscle mass vs obesity), bone loss and loss of libido. Mayo Clinic Report: rhGH therapy can help baby boomers regain some of their youthful energy and vitality.  Prescription injectable rHGH therapy improves mental well-being, increases endurance, improves immune function & increases bone density.  FACT! March 2009;  University of Oklahoma researchers ID link between the cognitive decline related to aging & the IGF-1 / human growth hormone decline related to aging.   In university studies, replenishing growth hormone / IGF-1 in aging GH defecient mice improved cognitive function MD prescribed rhGH is commonly dispensed by FDA approved medical clinics specializing in hormone replacement.

"Everyone over 40 years old would be wise to investigate adult HRT because it improves the quality of your life."  rhGH Advocate Sylvester Stallone in People Magazine.

Early Retirement .. At what age should one retire to maximize Social Security Benefits?

The worst scenario nay Sayers contend that there could be future unknown medical issues  . no objective negative findings to report on a prescription medication that has been prescribed for over 10 years to millions of adult patients to treat Adult GH deficiency .

• February 14, 2008: ABC News: rhGH replacement given in the appropriate dosage has minimal negative side effects.

• CNN 2007: human Growth Hormone dosages required to produce negative side effects are much higher than prescribed.

rhGH is a prescription hormone replacement medication produced by some of the largest pharmaceutical companies on the planet.

NYSE Pharmaceutical Company literature on Adult rhGH (Somatropin): Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) Humatrope®,  Pharmacia-Upjohn (NYSE:PNU) Genotropin®,  Merck-Serono (NYSE:MRK) Saizen®,  Sandoz (NYSE:NVS) Omnitrope®,  Genentech (NYSE:DNA) Nutropin®

At 40 endogenous GH is about 75% that of a 25-30 year old ... production is 25% less & maybe you feel a little different. At 50 endogenous GH is about 55% that of a 25-30 year old... the 45% decline combines with accumulated deficit & you feel it. At 60 endogenous GH is about 40% that of a 25-30 year old... a 60% decline + the effects snow ball. 61 YO Sylvester Stallone discusses using rhGH in preparation for his new Rambo movie. It's impressive that 61 year old Sly Stallone is still authoritative as Green Beret John Rambo.  View a Stallone interview .. compare his energy, vitality & presence with the average 61 year old kodger's.  Impressive!

Why should adults over 35 consider rhGH injections: Decrease body fat. Increase muscle mass. Increase exercise capacity. Increase bone density. Improve mood & attitude. Improve cognition.

We could be divided into 3 groups: Those who are optimizing their personal situation Those who want to optimize their personal situation Those who 'wish they wanted' to optimize their personal situation All it takes for the wishers & wanters to join the achievers is a sincere desire to optimize their personal situation / life.

The benefits of adult rhGH Therapy are well documented by 1000s of medical research studies (& daily at baseball stadiums). 

• The % of 21st century baseball record setting adult athletes utilizing 21st century medicine / rhGH is overwhelmingly convincing as to the effectiveness of rhGH.

  • If the jocks got their prescription rhGH from a pharmacy with a MD's prescription they violated baseball rules but not law.

  • rhGH use is currently not detected by any tests because rhGH is identical to natural GH.  GH is a naturally produced hormone which is produced in lesser & lesser amounts as part of the aging process.

Long term medical research HAS BEEN COMPLETED regarding hormone replacement & optimized aging.

• AntiAging Medicine as a specialty was founded in the early '90s .. as we baby boomers with 'incredibly high expectations' started hitting the 'middle age wall'.

• Again: many of the most problematic symptoms of aging (loss of strength, loss of muscle mass, loss of coordination,  cognitive issues) are effectively treated with Hormone Replacement Therapy.

• March, 2009: Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism: 10 years of rhGH therapy to normalize GH levels in GH deficient adults resulted in normalized muscular strength & neuro-muscular function.

 

• In 1958 Tufts University School of Medicine researcher Dr. Maurice Raben treated a 17 year old patient with Growth Hormone extracted from cadaver Anterior Pituitary glands.

 Natural Anterior Pituitary hGH is Somatotropin.  Somatotropin had the potential to cause Crutchfield-Jacobs Disease, CJD, which is similar to Mad Cow Disease.

• Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) is the human form of spongiform encephalopathy, the bovine form of spongiform encephalopathy is commonly known as Mad Cow Disease.  Both are transmitted through contaminated Central Nervous System material.  From 1958 - 1985 Somatotropin was extracted from cadaver brains & was a source of contaminated CNS material.

• 1985: Bio-Tech giant Genentech patented 1st generation biosynthetic rhGH Somatrem, methionyl-growth hormone or met-GH.  Biosynthetic Somatrem ended the potential of CJD, Crutchfield-Jacobs Disease. Somatrem met-GH is a 192 amino acid molecule.

  • The Anterior Pituitary secreted hGH molecule, endogenous Somatotropin,  has191 amino acids in a specific organic structure. 191 Amino Acid Sequence designates the position each of the 191 amino acids holds in the human GH molecule's amino acid structure. (A change of even 1 amino acid alters the molecule's properties.)

• 1993-2009: Genentech's second generation biosynthetic rhGH, Somatropin, is rDNA derived & bio-identical w/ the 191 amino acid sequence of Anterior Pituitary Gland secreted endogenous human Growth Hormone, Somatotropin.

  • Somatropin is 21st century prescription rhGH .. biologically identical with endogenous / natural hGH.

• The University of California at San Francisco is naming it's new research center after rDNA derived Growth Hormone pioneer, William J. Rutter. 

  • The William J. Rutter Center is situated on the UCSF campus across from Genentech Hall, the campus' other major research building.

    • Genentech Hall is part of a legal settlement. 

    • UCSF won a court decision that rhGH was developed on the UCSF campus & that Genentech owed UCSF part of Genetech's $2,000,000,000. profit on rhGH.

    • Genentech Pharmaceuticals patented biosynthetic Insulin in 1982 as well as patenting biosynthetic hGH in 1985.

A low calorie diet is on your route to graceful aging

Without lifestyle changes 25% of all people born today will develop Type 2 Diabetes.

High protein diets result in the release of a hormone, PYY, that curbs hunger in both obese and normal weight people.  PYY levels are lowest amongst obese people.  Dr.  Batterham reported the dietary changes required in average person's diet would be small - 2-3%, no where near the protein levels advocated by the Adkins diet, small increases in protein intake and small reductions in carbohydrate intake are effective.

How to chose the best doctor for your specific needs.

AntiAging Medicine is often referred to as Aging Management Medicine.  A realistic goal of an AntiAging program is to delay the onset of & to slow the progression of Aging's Symptoms A Patient's Advocate Medical Provider / Doctor is necessary for optimized aging. The better the Doctor the better the examination room communication.   2 way communication. A good Doctor listens. Doctor shopping to achieve your personal goals is 100% acceptable. Modern HMO doctors are often corporations that see up to 15 patients per hour. HMO Doctors are often not dedicated to individualized medicine orpersonalized patient care. Demand personalized medical care!!! Choice of medical care provider should not be a random pick & certainly not a decision delegated to a HMO.
