hgh side effects, human growth hormoneCelebrities, professional athletes and even ordinary people are taking Human Growth Hormone because they erroneously believe it has many benefits. In an interview on a site called popsci.com, Dr. Thomas Perls of Boston University warns that potential HGH side effects far outweigh the minimal benefits.
According to Perls and other scientific experts, HGH does little to enhance physical performance or reduce the effects of aging. That’s why you won’t find any medical literature in support of HGH on the websites that sell it. What you will find is a bunch of testimonials that were probably written by freelance writers who haven’t even tried it and have no intention of doing so.
The list of HGH side effects described by Dr. Perls is enough to dissuade any rational individual from trying it. HGH side effects include high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, headaches, joint pain, diabetes and an increased risk of various forms of cancer.
Given HGH side effects, celebrities and professional sports people who take it in the endeavor to advance their careers need their heads examined. HGH doesn’t work, but even if it did, there would be no point in taking it because you’d probably be too sick to enjoy your success.
