A lot of hate on the guest for no reason. First of all you don’t need a degree to be knowledgeable on a subject. This guy is on the show because he has read and understands the literature on the subject AND has personal experience using it himself. None of y’all bat an eye when popular bodybuilders spew nonsense on their channels based on their opinion. This guy actual read the academic literature. Secondary they stated many times how this particular subject lacks research. This means Peter wouldn’t likely find a researcher on this subject because they don’t really exist. This was a very insightful show.

Great podcast....In my early 30's I was in a near death accident. I broke my C1,2,3 L3,4,5 and had a TBI. I was paralyzed from the neck down for 4 months & was told I would never walk again. At the time I walked around at 185 and was in great shape. I could not eat or drink and went down to 138. Had a 14 hour surgery and thank God was mobile. I had a halo, girdle and neck brace. Docs put me on pharmaceutical grade GH because they wanted the bone to grow very fast over the titanium to prevent any additional setbacks. Could not work out at all afterwards. Once home my weight went up to about 160 just from eating again. Got all of the apparatus off. Went to outside family function for a bbq/pool party. It was a hot day- about 95 degrees. Took off my shirt for the 1st time and I was shredded...lol. Went back to the doc when I went back to the gym and asked him for another dose...lmao. The co-pay was $5 on about a $1,200 script, I believe. I got a resounding never ...lmao. The shit works wonders.

I guess her epiphysis wasn't fully closed at 20, or the humongous amounts of hgh she experienced somehow softened it up again. In any case - one way to create a human with super physiology could be to start with a child of short-backed stature, use large amounts of hgh at a young age, then shorten the limbs when the person becomes an adult. Ethically desirable? No! Possible? Yes. Somehow I am surprised it haven't been done already.

If you'd like having facts on the outcomes, why aren't you guys supporting the funding of such studies? I mean, these are people's lives you're doing testing of drugs on, so why isn't it part of a drug trial to demostrate safety and outcomes?

@rossgrant1523 7 ай бұрын

Probably because there isn't all kinds of money to go around and thousands of studies people would ideally like to do

It is. They give anabolics to surgery patients to increase the retention of lean tissue and burn fat. While also increasing their igf so they recover quicker.

I love when medical professional pretend to be dumb-on-purpose. The doctor clearly states he utilized the product and his patients saw significant results , yet he calls said results "anecdotal". Does this Doctor not understand what anecdote means? FUN FACT- EVERYBODY is on HGH. Yes, your favorite basketball player, football player, soccer player, prowrestler, actor, and even female model is ALL on HGH. Oh yes, make no mistake, EVERYBODY is on HGH Every modern professional athlete who has ever torn a muscle has used HGH in their rehab protocol.

well.. i find this to be the most useless video/poscast ever! basically you did gave almost no answer on anything… just conjectures, anecdotes, doubs… maybe this, maybe that… 🤷‍♂️ i don’t know: what is the point of making a video on something you don’t really have clear and founded answers??

@riceexperiment 7 ай бұрын

Because that's the current level of evidence, very little or no scientific publications, like they mention, it's mainly anecdotal. Plus, it's russian roulette cuz you never know what's actually in the drug from underground labs or from abroad; it's all buyer beware, at your own risk.

It’s rare in social media these days to have people who aren’t implying everything they say is fact, and that we need to continue to learn more. It’s actually refreshing when someone says “I don’t know,” when the topics aren’t fully elucidated yet.

@@BrandoTheMando87yes.. i can appreciate a discussion where the partecipants does not present their theory as absolute truth… but with a grain of doubt. That’s appreciable! but here it’s seems a little bit too high level of doubt: basically it sounds like we have no clue about gh effect!!😄😄

From what I was told and also prescribed. GH is extremely expensive, like omnitrope. It's 400 dollars for a two week cycle. Peptides like sermoreline will increase grhelin. Oxandrolone is a steroid used specifically to increase igf. The point of increasing igf is to get it to where your igf was as an adolescent/young adult. You ideally want your igf to be like almost 300 ng/ml. Because at that point your susceptibility to DOMS, injury, decreases and your recovery heavily increases. They typically give oxandrolone to patients who have had hard-core surgeries. Same with peptides like bpc-157. My igf is 146 ranging from 96-290. So needs to get a bit higher.
