What is human growth hormone?

Human growth hormone essentially stimulates growth through cell reproduction in both animals and humans. There is a lot of controversy concerning human growth hormone in sports, especially since it is considered an unethical way to get an edge over the competition.

We already have human growth hormone as a naturally occurring hormone that is produced within the human body. The human growth hormone is produced in the pituitary gland. The human growth hormone mainly occurs during adolescence as a way to increase height in the period of time where a "growth spurt" naturally occurs.

There are also several diseases that can be treated with HGH products.

There are HGH side effects that can occur if HGH is excessively used. There has been talk of side effects, such as diabetes or colon cancer. It can also cause acromelagy which is essentially the overgrowth of facial bone and connective tissue, leading to a changed appearance of a protruding jaw and eyebrow bones. Acromelagy also leads to growth of hands and feet, as well as a hairier appearance. This can also lead to premature death.
