Section III
HGH vs Tweedledumb

As doctors of the baby boomer athletes, we constantly hear the difficulty our patients have trying to lose the spare tire. Exercise seldom cancels out this fat storage problem in the middle years.

There have been many studies which point up the effectiveness of HGH in bringing about the necessary fat loss.
We have already seen some of the results obtained in patients by Dr. Chein and Dr. Terry at Palm Springs.

As for that central fat around the waist - the Tweedledumb fat - HGH is particularly effective in bringing about its reduction and loss. In one study by Dr. Bengt-Ake Bengtsson at Sahlgrenska Hospital in Sweden, adults deficient in HGH were treated with this hormone for six months. Over this period, the patients in this study lost 20% of their body fat. Even more encouraging were the numbers for fat loss around the mid-section, the Tweedledumb fat. Here, 30% of the fat was lost.

It is especially difficult for older people to shed Tweedledumb fat, and more difficult still to lose fat associated with this Tweedledumb fat that builds up internally, in the body cavity around various organs.

You can do arm exercises, leg exercises, even sit-ups to work off the outer fat.
But there is little by way of exercise that readily works off these central, internal fat deposits.

And yet here, too, HGH has shown itself to be amazingly effective.
