The Best Growth Hormone Supplements For Bodybuilding

The Best Growth Hormone Supplements For Bodybuilding

WHAT IS GROWTH HORMONE?

Growth Hormone, also referred to as Human Growth Hormone or HGH is produced in the pituitary gland and it helps to spur growth in children and teens, it also helps to regulate body composition, muscle growth, bone growth and bone density, sugar and fat metabolism, and potentially heart function as well. 

WHAT DOES GROWTH HORMONE DO?

In adults growth hormone is important for growth of muscles, cell regeneration, and cell production, it also helps to build as well as maintain and repair healthy tissue in the brain, muscles, and other organs. Growth Hormone (HGH) also can help to speed up healing after an injury and helps to repair muscles after exercise and helps to prevent muscle waste. Growth Hormone can also help build muscle mass, boost metabolism, and help to burn fat. 

HOW TO INCREASE GROWTH HORMONE NATURALLY?

Before we get into the area of supplementation and using supplements to potentially increase growth hormone or HGH, there are some proven evidence based ways to increase human growth hormone (HGH) levels naturally. These include things like losing body fat and working on improving your body compisition, doing intermittent fasting, reducing the amount of sugar you eat, staying active and introducing high intensity exercise into your life, and then of course supplementation which we'll get into a bit later, taking things like GABA, Beta Alanine, Arginine, or supplement blends designed to help release more HGH or human growth hormone. 

IS HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE (HGH) A STEROID?

Human Growth Hormone is not a steroid, though it is often thought of as being in the same category as them and is often lumped into that category with anabolic steroids as both are oftentimes used by athletes and were prominently mentioned in the Mitchell Report. Many athletes praise human growth hormone for helping to treat injuries. Unlike steroids growth hormone has not been shown to increase weight lifting ability, it has a greater effect on muscle definition and recovery more so than increasing strength or performance. Growth Hormone also doesn't seem to do much to improve cardio and cardiovascular fitness either. 

CAN HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE MAKE YOU TALLER?

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is produced by our pituitary glands and while it is responsible for growth in children and teens, and while it does play a key role in growth and body composition, once you reach adult height, your height is pretty much determined short of having extensive surgeries. Those who've attempted to use human growth hormone to grow taller or improve their height typically see modest results of less than 4cm. 

BEST HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE (HGH) SUPPLEMENTS

If you've already tried making some of the lifestyle changes above to enhance human growth hormone production and release but are also looking into supplementation, there are a number of supplemetns which may enhance human growth hormone production. Some of these are single ingredient supplements, things like Melatonin, Glutamine, Creatine, Orthinine, L-DOPA, Glycine, GABA, and Arginine, however there's also supplements on the market which are blends of ingredients which are specifically formulated to help enhance human growth hormone release and production. Here's some of our top picks.
