Many people are looking for effective treatments to help slow down the aging process and grow older more gracefully. Semorelin therapy is a natural way to rev up form your HGH (Human Growth Hormone). Sermorelin contains only the first 29 amino acids which are responsible for stimulating pituitary production and secretion of HGH.

Benefits of Sermorelin Therapy:

  • Increase lean muscle mass
  • Reduce body fat
  • Increase bone density
  • Enhances endurance
  • Improves sleep
  • Enhance the immune system
  • Strengthen the heart and other organs
  • Increased calcium retention
  • Increased protein synthesis
  • Playing a role in energy homeostasis

Sermorelin Therapy Is Not The Same As HGH Therapy

HGH is a much larger molecule that contains 191 amino acids. Sermorelin produces the same benefits as HGH, yet, its effects are regulated at the level of the pituitary gland so that safety concerns associated with HGH overdosing are avoided. In addition, Sermorelin Therapy is significantly less expensive than HGH and their is no loss of potency.

 

Are Hormones & Cholesterol Related?

Heart Disease Remains The #1 Cause Of Death In The United States

A major risk factor for heart disease is hypercholesterolemia, which indicates very high levels of cholesterol in the blood.

High Cholesterol Is A Bi-Product Of Un-Balanced Hormones

In a clinical study by Dzugan et al. in 2002, their theory was that high cholesterol levels were a bi-product of low production of steroid hormones such as estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Once more youthful levels of these hormones were restored, total cholesterol reduced by 23.5% and normalized completely in 61.6% of all participants. In this study all patients receiving bio-identical hormones reported an increase in quality of life. Thus, it seems that bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is an effective approach to assist in the control of high cholesterol levels.

Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy utilized to correct estrogen, progesterone and testosterone to preferred levels will help to keep the your heart and body healthy. Estrogen increases HDL (good) cholesterol by 10% – 15%. In addition, Estrogen lowers your lipoprotein A levels which can also be a major risk factor for heart disease. Estrogen also lowers homocysteine and acts as a natural calcium channel blocker to keep your arteries open and reduce your risk of heart disease by as much as 40-50%.

Hormone Imbalance Example:

Progesterone without adequate estrogen leads to the following:

  • Increases weight gain
  • Increases LDL cholesterol
  • Decreases HDL cholesterol
  • Increases triglycerides.

Your hormones work together in harmony and if there is a deficiency in one area, the actions of other areas will be affected. Replacement of your hormones should be customized only to you and monitored for adjustments as your body fluctuates in response to life’s stresses.
