Let’s talk about the best ways to increase growth hormone, especially as you age.

In adults, growth hormone is crucial for muscle building and fat burning. It’s also important for building tendons, ligaments, collagen, joints, and bones. However, growth hormone dramatically decreases with age.

Side effects of a deficiency in growth hormone can include:

• Difficulty building muscle

• Cognitive issues

• Lowered mood

• Higher levels of LDL

• Hair loss

• Insomnia

Here are the top things that can block growth hormone:

• Insomnia

• Sleep apnea

• High blood sugar

• High insulin

• Chronic stress

• Liver problems

The pituitary gland produces growth hormone. Instead of replacing the hormone with a synthetic version, why don’t we support the gland that makes growth hormone?

How to increase growth hormone naturally:

1. Try Pituitrophin PMG from Standard Process

2. Do intense exercise

3. Take milk thistle (if you have a liver problem)

4. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet

5. Do cold immersion therapy

6. Do heat therapy

7. Do intermittent fasting

Some people find their muscles look flat or dehydrated after getting on keto. In this situation, it’s important to drink plenty of water with electrolytes, especially potassium and sodium. This will help keep the muscles hydrated. You could also try increasing your carbs to 50 grams per day by consuming foods like berries but still avoiding refined carbs and sugar.
