Active people can at some point find themselves in the grips of pain and frustration because of an injury. Life becomes a waiting game until they are back either on the playing field, at the gym, or on the dance floor.
For those of us no longer in our 20’s, we must realize that the decline in growth hormone (GH), along with other hormones, has a lot to do with how well and how fast we recover from an injury. There are substances in the body that can increase the rate of injury repair – even connective tissue repair. This can be stimulated readily with growth hormone secretagogues and specific peptides. Secretagogues and peptides are substances that cause another substance to be secreted; in this case, growth hormone.
Growth hormone is very good at communicating with tissue cells in the formation of new cells, growth factors, muscle fibres and joint rejuvenation. Secretagogues and peptides can work to stimulate GH release from the pituitary for this repair and regeneration mechanism to kick in quicker.
Key Peptides That Can Assist You
Thymosin Beta 4
Thymosin Beta 4 promotes blood vessel, muscle cell, and skin cell regeneration and migration, resulting in more rapid and effective wound repair as well as faster recovery from injury. Thymosin beta is stimulated from the thymus gland.
MGF
Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is a very potent inducer of muscle growth. It causes muscle cells in trauma to split, creating new muscle cells and resulting in muscle growth and repair. It is essential for recovery, repair, and growth of new cells.
IGF-1
IGF-1 is the next generation in performance enhancement for muscle building. It is the most important growth factor that our bodies produce, even more so than HGH.
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin combination has a strong effect on the release of Growth Hormone and IGF-1 and reduces body fat by forcing your body to burn its fat stores as a source of energy. This combo is also known to increase cellular repair, regeneration, and collagen production.
