HGH Scams and Deceitful Marketing Tactics!

Usually product reviews are posted here on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. However, there is another very important matter to discuss.

There are a variety of ways that companies actually trick people into thinking their product is the greatest. These deceitful marketing tactics include as follows:

Implementation of skewed comparison charts-One of the most common ways to deceive people is by making up misleading comparison charts. It’s not that it is wrong to have comparison charts and many of them are legit. However, it is very easy to fool people into thinking the data in them is unbiased when it is not. This is particularly true in the case of comparison charts run directly by companies or vendors who actually sell the products.

Misleading description of ingredients-There are different ways to make the list of ingredients in an HGH product seem like the “real” human growth hormone. However, this is a lie and you should beware of companies who do this.

Same product/different name reviews-Sometimes what you think may be three different products is actually the same product marketed under different brands. There is nothing necessarily wrong in and of itself but it does make a consumer think each product is unique when it is just a copy.

Overrated product promotion-Sometimes products such as HGH releasers or precursors are given more attention than they deserve. While they are often very effective in the encouragement of natural human growth hormone release these types of products are often overpriced. This leads to disappointment when users expect more results than otherwise is possible with certain supplements.

So why are you given this information?

This will help you make more informed choices when purchasing human growth hormone substances. It will aid in the process of making the safest and soundest decisions about HGH products that you put in your body.

Biogenica HGH Review

The Biogenica HGH formula has received mixed reactions from reviewers. One person said that it works very well while another says not to waste your time with it.

It seems that the people who have used it either like it very much or they just about hate it. So what makes the difference in whether or not it will work? This is a bit of a complex question and using it is kind of a risk on your part.

It may make a difference based on the following factors:

  • Your overall health condition
  • Other supplements or medications that you take
  • Your body chemistry
  • Your chronological age

When in doubt please make sure that you talk to your doctor about this product. He or she can assess your current health condition as well your past health history. This will give you the best indication of what will work for you and what will not. While you are receiving a health examination you should let your doctor know of any and all medications as well as symptoms you experience even before taking

Review and Report about Growth Flex V

Yet another HGH (human growth hormone) supplement is found today that supposedly makes people taller. Do not fall for this, as in a majority of cases the Growth Flex V does not do that for people.

First of all, the only time that an HGH supplement is given to help people grow taller is if they are in the dwarf category. In this case, injections are given to (usually) growing children or adolescents who are growing at a less than average rate.

However, in most cases an HGH supplement is intended for the purpose of toning muscles and improving the appearance of the skin. The use of products like this that help stimulate natural production of human growth hormone production also do the following:

  • Provide more energy
  • Improve sexual functioning
  • Prolong stamina
  • Increase metabolism
  • Improved bone density
  • Growth Flex V Evaluation

This product does have in it growth factors such as L-Arginine and L-Ornithine. There is not much more info on the Internet about the ingredients, but there is a label on the bottle.

It is a little bit discouraging that they do not offer much at all as to what is in this product. You could write the company and ask them about it though.

There is very little information offered about this product as well in the way of providing you with valid research. Very little scientific studies back up the claims made by this advertiser that this product can make you grow taller.

It can be, however, beneficial as a product that can enhance your youthfulness. That is usually the main objective of most products like this. Still, the ads concerning this product are thought to be very misleading.

If you have any doubt you can ask your doctor about this product. Otherwise, you can find something else that would help you better than this one.

Update: a Much Nicer 21st Century HGH Review

The 21st Century HGH supplement had at one review site received an “F” rating. However, I did some further research and found a much nicer review.

This one is worth sharing in case you are considering the purchase of this human growth hormone solution. It will give you a little bit different perspective than the “F” review you may have already read.

The info from this newly updated review is meant to provide a more balanced view of what consumers and/or experts really think of this product. Overall, the customer service rating of this product was a 4/5, which is not bad at all-far above average.

The rest of the scores range in descending order as follows:

Price: 5/5
Guarantee: 5/5
Reputation: 3/5
Results: 3/5

These totals to an above average score of about 86%, which according to school letter grades would be about a B or B+. The “Star” rating overall would be approximately an average of 4.2/5 overall.

Ingredients

The ingredient list shown is as follows: Homeopath HGH 30x, Pituitarium 30x, and liver extract 30x. Now, one of the reasons why on a different review site this product received an “F” rating is because the common person cannot really understand what these ingredients really are, except for maybe the liver extract.

However, receiving an “F” rating may be a bit harsh. I myself maybe would have given this product a “B” or “C” if I had found out it worked for me. The downgrade of course from an “A” would be simply because I do agree with the point that it is annoying not to really understand what the ingredients mean.

However, of course you can probably find documentation to help you with understanding this product. You can probably find out more information on the product website.

However, you can be warned that this company is known for a bit of competitive product’ “bashing” which some people may consider highly unnecessary. In some circles of influences, it may not seem like very good etiquette for one company to downgrade another unless they want to risk getting sued.

(On the other hand, some companies actually pay to use their competitor’s names. In this case, some companies view negative publicity better than none at all.)

On the brighter side…

One of the other reasons why 21st Century HGH has received an above average rating by some consumers is that it is very easy to use. All you do is spray it twice under your tongue about three times per day.

21st Century HGH Receives an “F” Rating

Woof! That is pretty harsh! The 21st Century HGH product receives an “F” rating according to one source. And why is that?

Primary Failure Criteria

The main reason this product didn’t even barely make the scale is because it for some reason was marketed by a company who claims it has real HGH in it. For one thing, the “real” thing is no longer marketed for fear of contamination-at least in most places in the world.

At the very least, this company could have said it was synthetic HGH or could have said it was some type of precursor or stimulator product. Most over-the-counter human growth remedies are NOT the real thing!

If you ever see any company advertise that they sell “real” HGH beware. Be very wary of dealing with them that is all I can say.

About the Ingredients

Now that I am done rambling on, about how badly this product failed and why, let me tell you a little bit about the ingredients. This is the list, which I found online: Human Growth Hormone 30X, Pituitarium 30X, Liver Extract 3X.

In case you are wondering what the “30X” and so on means. Well, it was explained to me that this company is trying to say that there is at least some amount of authentic human growth hormone in this product.

The ironic this is they are right, but the ratio is like only 1 drop of this substance to a near infinite number of drops of water. That is ridiculous, and such a lofty claim that does not “hold water.” (Excuse the poor pun I just used.)

To make a long story short because I gotta go…

This product simply is just not worth the money. Or, even if it is helpful it is sold by a misleading, dishonest vendor. Watch out!

A Brief Overview of Sectreta-GH

Sectreta-GH is a product that made its way throughout Australia. This product has both amino acids and herbs present in it. Inner Amour makes it, and word has it that this is the same product as the IForce SecretaGain HGH.

This product has been given an average rating of a “C” on one review site. Part of the reason it only received an average rating is because the ingredient mix it leaves quite a bit to question.

Yet, it is not such a bad product in that it does provide some natural sources, such as a variety of amino acids and a mint called Coleus Forskolii. Furthermore, it does include a form of zinc as well as B6.

One of the active ingredients in this product includes a form of choline called alpha GPC. It stimulates human growth hormone release. It also helps put a stop to somastatin.

Evaluation

This product does work for some people. In fact, it is not necessarily the performance of this product that was most upsetting to users. Rather, it was the way in which this product is marketed, as well as the way the product ingredients were presented on the label.

Although this product may work very well to help stimulate HGH production, it the company is called one who used “pumped up marketing bull.” The main complaint is that they use scientific names for ingredients rather than using plain language.

This can be confusing to the average user. However, at least it does have some benefit-at least as much as similar HGH supplements. It just would have been nice if the makers of this product could have marketed it to a wider audience.

I mean, not many people are familiar with the complex, long chemistry terms used to market this product. Either way, if more people know what’s in it the product value would probably increase dramatically.

The Role of GABA gamma amino butyric acid in HGH Production

GABA is short for gamma amino butyric acid which is a substance that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce human growth hormones. That is why many HGH supplements contain this ingredient. It is one that is most often associated with use as a wrinkle cream, but often is available in oral supplements and sprays.

This is an additional novelty use of this particular stimulator. Other uses of GABA might be associated with wanting to grow taller, and this may be the case with young children. However, for the most part this stimulator has almost always been associated with youthfulness and skin elasticity.

Usually this stimulator is requested by people as they continue to fight the effects of aging. Some people might have concerns about side effects, which need to be further researched before you try any product made with this ingredient.

There is something to be said for looking youthful for as long as possible. However, in the process be safe about it and obtain all the information you can about this particular stimulating ingredient.

Brief Account of HGH Usage

This could not possibly be a complete account of HGH usage, because that would be an extremely long blog entry. This info is being provided, however, in the event you wonder if you are a candidate to receive this type of hormone replacement therapy.

HGH in the injection form (or comparable doctor-prescribed methods) were first applied to children whose growth rates were slower than normal. As of 2003 there were about 400,000 children (presumably in the U.S.) who were eligible for this type of treatment.

Humatrope is an example of a solution that was FDA approved that has been used for this purpose. Results of studies conducted to prove the effectiveness of this showed that it could actually increase the height of a child from between 1 to 3 inches.

Growth per year is said to increase by about 2 inches per year. Before synthetic versions of HGH became popular “the real thing” was taken from real cadavers. However, this is no longer the case especially after the 1950s because of the concern of contamination.

HGH Decline and Aging Symptoms

Aging symptoms such as muscle degeneration, skin wrinkling, insomnia, mood swings, or weak bones is thought to be a direct result of declining HGH production. This chemical, human growth hormone, is naturally found in the pituitary gland and it is only inevitable with every year that passes that a person produces less and less of it.

The decline is usually gradual. However, it is significant nonetheless considering how long humans actually live. Besides the complications already mentioned above lowered HGH levels can cause impaired kidney function, cardiovascular malfunction, or decreased sexual performance.

So, should aging people try to benefit from HGH (hormone replacement) therapy? This is a very controversial issue and is one that is best discussed with your doctor.

For now, you should be aware that human growth hormone injections are offered by prescription only. Many of the other products sold over the counter are meant to help stimulate the natural production of this chemical as if the person was young again.

Who Needs HGH Anyway?

HGH seems to be a buzz word these days. It stands for human growth hormone, and is a substance often used in hormone replacement therapy. It also is the target of most over the counter hormone growth stimulators and precursors sold today.

Some products can be taken home and used right away for this purpose. However, injections offered to people are only available by prescription. These are given to people for a variety of reasons, including the following:

  • To help correct bone problems
    (i.e. bone density issues)
  • Decrease body fat
  • Improve shape and form of muscles
  • Increase muscle mass
  • Increase energy level
  • Slow down aging
  • Promote growth
    (i.e. children or teens growing slower than normally)
  • Correct problems associated with HIV
  • To fight against Hormone Deficiency Syndrome
    (or other related health problems)

What about Healthy Adults?

The research of HGH injections on healthy adults is limited. So is the research related to stimulators and precursors sold over the counter.

What is clear is that the synthetic version therapeutic substances are used now. This is because of contamination issues related to extracting the real HGH from the brain.
