The Truth About Hormone Replacement, Antioxidants, Exercise, Stress, and Diet.

Section VI
Overview and Summation

We have seen that our hormone levels tend to decline sharply from about the time of middle age onwards, and that this decline in hormone levels plays a key role in bringing on the aging process.

From the work of Dr. Chein and Dr. Terry at the Palm Springs Life Extension Institute we have also seen that by employing hormone replacement therapy - and most particularly by the use of HGH replacement therapy - that many aspects of aging can be halted, or even reversed.

HGH, when returned to youthful levels in the body, is able to bring back a youthful physiology - it is able to turn back the clock.

This reversal of the aging process manifests itself outwardly in numerous ways: fat loss, muscle gain, improved sexual performance and pleasure, the reduction or elimination of wrinkles, and on and on.

These kinds of results were also obtained in studies done by Dr. Bengtsson in Sweden, and by other researchers in Europe and America. In Dr. Rudman's initial study, where HGH was administered to men in their 60's and 70's, the results were truly amazing. With the obvious improvements that the HGH treatment brought about - fat loss, muscle gain, rejuvenation of skin and hair - some of the patients appeared to have had their aging process rolled back 10 or 20 years.

For them, HGH had turned back the clock a decade or two.
And these were men in their 60's and 70's, men who were already well along the downward spiral of aging.
