ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT KEYTROPIN
-
How
is KeyTropin different from growth hormone?
Taking
a GH Releasing Factor is NOT the same as injecting prescription GH.
GH use has a number of side effects over time - it inhibits the body's
production of its own GH, it causes excess water retention (vasopression),
increases prolactin levels, among other things. When used as directed,
KeyTropin actually is better for your health because it only stimulates
your body to make more growth hormone and does not inhibit your body's
GH production, nor does it cause vasopression or the other side effects
when used as directed.
-
What
is the difference between the KeyTropin spray and the tablets?
The
spray is less than half the strength of the tablets. The spray is
better suited to younger individuals who typically produce high levels
of GH, but there is no problem with younger people using the tablets.
The six week KeyTropin study
was carried out using the same amount of HTA5
that is in the spray (2000 nanograms). The spray is formulated with
a transport molecule, named glycosaminoglycan, that allows it to be
absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the tissues of the
mouth.
-
Won't
the tablets be destroyed by the gastric system before they can be
utilized?
No,
the tablets are coated using an well-established technology. Enteric
coating was first used to protect acidophilus over 20 years ago. So
the HTA5 gets into the blood stream. In
fact, the tablets are metabolized by the liver, where the HTA5
directly stimulates the release of IGF-1 and other growth factors.
- How long before
I see results from KeyTropin?
Some users
of KeyTropin begin to see results within a four weeks. Many medical
experts believe that GH should be administered for several months for
it to be truly effective in all its positive effects. GH will cause
new muscle tissue to develop in as little as six to twelve weeks, yet
a body needs six months to adapt it. The same is true for KeyTropin,
though comparable results could be somewhat slower in manifesting. That
means you might not see dramatic results until the third month of use.
There is nothing wrong with slow development. From the body's point
of view, that is the least stressful way to change.
- Can I take
more than the recommended amount per day of KeyTropin?
Yes. The
body produces GH at several different times during the day. The idea
behind taking KeyTropin in the morning or at night is to try to match
it to those times. If you choose to use KeyTropin more often, a dose
in mid-morning or mid-afternoon should be effective. That way you would
get more frequent high GH spikes. With GH, it is very much a case of
the more you take, the more you utilize. However, be aware that massive
overdosing (25,000 ng of HTA5/day) will cause effects similar to high doses of GH - fluid imbalance,
transient neuropathy, swelling in joints, etc. If those effects begin
to occur, cut back the daily dosage and they will subside. Another way
of looking at it is that you can force more rapid growth, but it might
be painful!
- How long can
I safely take KeyTropin?
KeyTropin
is completely safe. KeyTropin will not shut down your body's GH production,
compared with prolonged use of prescription GH. Use KeyTropin is best
used for a maximum of three months, then take at least a month off so
your body does not start an inhibitory feedback loop and negate the
product's effects. During the three month "on" cycle, you
should use KeyTropin on the recommended pattern of 5 days on and 2 days
off, so your body can continually re-establish its normal GH releasing
pattern.
- Are the results
from KeyTropin permanent?
Yes and
no. Once you develop new tissue, it stays; though as you age, your GH
output declines. Thus muscle tissues shrink, body fat increases, bone
mass decreases, hair turns gray, etc. Increasing GH reverses those trends
over time, but only so long as you keep the levels up.
- Why
will KeyTropin be more effective for mass building when taken with a
meal?
IGF-1
is one of the growth factors responsible for tissue growth. After you
eat, your liver naturally produce high levels of IGF-1 and other growth
factors. By taking KeyTropin at mealtime, it stimulates the liver to
produce even more IGF-1 than normal.
- How is KeyTropin
different than other over-the-counter GH products?
GH is a prescription
medication. Many products claim to have GH in them, but they do not
contain practical amounts - if they did, the FDA would not allow them
on the market. Moreover, pharmaceutical GH is usually not mixed until
just before use, because GH is a very delicate protein. Once activated
by reconstitution with water (and sometimes a preservative), it requires
refrigeration and has a very short half-life. None of the water-based
OTC products containing GH at the time of manufacture are refrigerated
and must be rendered useless due to instability.
Some products
have peptide chains, but they are too short and too simple to work
very well. HTA5 has 60 aminos. Moreover,
the products using short peptide chains work on the pituitary gland.
After being directly stimulated for a short time (a couple of weeks),
a natural feedback mechanism kicks in and further extra GH production
is curtailed. KeyTropin works via the hypothalamus which in turn signals
the pituitary. Therefore, KeyTropin works over a much longer period
of time before a negative feedback loop is instigated.
Other products
attempt to stimulate GH production with an herbal form of L-dopa.
L-dopa can raise dopamine levels, which may increase GH output, but
in healthy people, even
natural L-dopa can be risky. There is evidence that too much L-dopa
can damage the brain and even lead to Parkinson's disease. KeyTropin
does not contain any form of L-dopa.
At least one OTC
product contains pituitary GH Releasing Factors from porcine sources.
The idea is that human pituitary will recognize those external GHRF's
and the body will go ahead and put out more GH. Even if that did work,
it would only be valid for a couple of weeks, after which excess GH
production would fade out. The body finally recognizes the exogenous
GHRF as foreign stops responding to it.
-
How
is KeyTropin different than homeopathic GH products?
For
over a century, there has been considerable debate as to whether homeopathy
is truly effective. In some respects, it clearly is. Vaccines are
based on the homeopathic idea - that if you dilute a virus enough
so that it is extremely weak, the body builds defenses against it.
In the same way, in homeopathic remedies, a highly diluted substance
is supposed to motivate the body to respond. Therefore, the tiniest
amount of diluted GH is expected to signal the pituitary gland to
produce more GH. That defies logic. Unlike herbs used in homeopathy,
which are relatively robust, GH is a very delicate protein requiring
refrigeration and having a very short half life once it is activated.
If it were to survive at all, how would a 30 or 60 times dilution
of it cause any effect?
But there is a
another more basic physical problem with homeopathic GH. Homeopathic
GH claims to have real hGH in it. A 191-amino protein GH molecule
cannot penetrate intact into membranes to any significant degree.
A 65-amino peptide is the proven maximum length of an absorbable molecule.
The HTA5 peptide chain is 60-aminos in length, quite
near the limit.
None of the liquid
homeopathic GH's are refrigerated, and, as mentioned above, they would
not be effective due to the GH molecule's instability at room temperature
when in solution.
