I see the ads. Lots of claims. I've read the Health Canada warning but there's little to go on there. I'd like to order but I'd like some independent reviews of BIE's GHR supplements before I do. If you've used this growth hormone, anti-aging supplement please comment.

If this is human pituitary growth hormone realize you are permenantly deferred from donating blood because of the risk of cruetzfelt jakob. Not a risk I would want to take. [CJD=Mad Cow prion disease)

It's in a pill form. It's a supplement. It's not a growth hormone per se but is something that's supposed to stimulate the pituitary to increase its levels. It seems like a magic bullet given the claims. I just want some independent review. The website, of course, has plenty to say.

If you ingest 12 grams of arginine on an empty stomach just before your head hits the pillow, it will cause your pituitary to release human growth hormone while you sleep.

One pill ain't a gonna to do it.

Thanks for the info but given I have no idea of what you've just said, all I can say is - do some people do this?

Yeah - Read Life Extension by Durk Pearson and Sandy Shaw.

Here's a lead:

The Life Extension Manual - Arginine

"There is a large body of scientific study on the effects of L-arginine on growth hormone release. In fact, the administration of a large dose of L-arginine is a standard test for the ability of the pituitary to release growth hormone.Moderator cut: can't quote som much, 1 or 2 sentences

Thanks for the book tip! Interesting info on arginine. I'll look into it more. But I'm still hoping just one user or former user of BIE's well advertised GHR supplement will show up and tell us what he or she thinks.

There has to be one user or former user here of GHR or something similar - HGH in pill form? With it being advertised now in reputable magazines I'd just like to hear it from the horse's mouth. Anyone with experience, please drop a post here.

Is this GHR you are considering ordering just arginine? If so, 12 gms. is A LOT to take at a time. Not that there's anything wrong with that--it's just a big dose.

Here's its site: BIEHealth.ca : GHR. But other internet voices warn it's likely a scam. I have no idea. If it can do even half of what it claims it has to be a bargain.
