HGH Sprays (Scam): What is a NanoGram? The Quantity of a Nano Gram
What is a Nanogram, the quantities in HGH Sprays (Scams)
A Nanogram is 1 billionth of a gram. So the 10 to 400 nanograms of growth hormone claimed by various HGH Spray companies are, in fact, very close to nothing.
HGH Sprays are scams, and it truly amazes me how many companies are still selling them on the Internet.
HGH Scams: Different HGH Scams and things to watch for online
HGH Scams and things to watch for Online
Buying liquid HGH for Injection
Liquid HGH is very sensitive to heat, losing potency if not kept at a
temperature of 2-8 degrees at all times, even then becoming useless
after around 20 days. Its sensitivity also extends to vigorous
movements, such as shaking, which can shatter the fragile links between
atoms of the molecule. For those two reasons it is very unlikely that a
liquid form of HGH can be delivered to you by postal courier (which is
the standard practice when buying on the internet). If they put it on
dry ice it is too cold, and HGH is destroyed, if they let it overheat,
it is too hot and HGH is destroyed, if they shake it a lot, drop it,
etc.. it is destroyed.
If you are buying on the black market again, do not buy the liquid form
because you can never be sure if it was properly stored, or if it's not
expired. If you get it out of a pharmacy store or a reliable deler then
it could be OK.
HGH Spray, HGH Pills SCAM ALERT
HGH is large, fragile protein molecule with a molecular weight of
20,000. It contains 191 amino acids in an exact sequence, with many
fragile cross-linkages that give it an important 3-D configuration. Its
only source is from human genes, using very expensive and meticulous
recombinant DNA technology. HGH from any other source, even from other
animals, does not work in humans. There is no other source of HGH.
There is absolutely no naturally occurring plant source of HGH. HGH
must be made using human genetics. The only safe form of HGH is made by
splicing human genes into bacteria cells or embryonic mammalian cells,
and then growing those cells in a culture media.
True HGH can only be absorbed in effective amounts by injecting the
pharmaceutical grade of HGH, which is expensive and only available on a
doctor's prescription. It CANNOT be absorbed by mouth, by SPRAY or by
the sublingual route. Various forms of human growth hormone (HGH) are
being marketed as a nasal spray, oral spray, tablet, powder, or
capsule. Full page advertisements for such products have been seen in
major newspapers. The facts must be addressed in scientific and legal
terms before any such claims can be believed. In fact, in my opinion,
they are all scams.
HGH Releasers
Most so-called HGH releasers are composed of amino acids, primarily
L-arginine, in large doses. A heaping teaspoon of L-arginine on an
empty stomach will increase HGH release by the pituitary gland in a
young person by up to 25%, for only a short time, and only in those
people who already make a lot of HGH on their own and don't need any
more. It will not cause HGH to be released to any significant degree in
an older person, when it is needed to prevent accelerated aging. The
small releasing effect is progressively lost with age.
HGH releasers are non specific. They also increase the pituitary
release of ACTH, causing an increase in adrenal cortisone production.
Cortisone (cortisol) speeds aging while giving a temporary boost in
energy and well-being. For this reason you might encounter testimonials
of immediate "feel-good" effects of such products. That is unrelated to
HGH.
HGH releasers have the same effect as ghrelin, an appetite stimulating
peptide hormone. HGH releasers therefore increase appetite and cause
weight gain.
Some so-called HGH releasers contain raw animal brains, listed on the
label as "hypothalamus" or "pituitary." The theory is that they contain
a minute amount of GH releasing hormone (GHRH). Raw brain tissue is the
primary cause of mad cow disease, scientifically known as spongiform
encephalopathy or Creutzfeldt Jakob disease. This is true of all
so-called glandular products with freeze dried brain or pituitary
ingredients.
The effect of HGH releasers gradually fades with time, over a few months - called tachyphylaxis.
Online sources of Lyophilized recombinant HGH
Lyophilized (white dry powder) HGH can be stable at room temperature
for long enough to be transported to you, however be very very careful
who you buy from. Because real HGH is a very expensive medicine there
will naturally be plenty of counterfiet merchandise all over the black
market. The internet is also full of outright scammers who will appear
as a normal online pharmacy, even charge credit cards, offer
prescriptions and when you actually make a "purchase" they are never to
be heard from again. Some may sell expired, misshandled (improperly
stored) merchandise.
Unknown HGH Brand
Producing real HGH is not a piece of cake and cannot be done in a
bathtub pharmacy (like many steroids can). The equipment alone is worth
multi millions. Any company which can afford the equipment, can afford
a proper brand name, recognition by FDA equivalent of the country in
which the product is manufactured, etc..
Avoid Black Market HGH & Botox - Marina del Rey woman arrested in HGH case

Marina del Rey woman arrested in HGH case
By Larry Altman Staff Writer
Article Launched: 07/30/2008 12:09:34 AM PDT
A Marina del Rey woman has been charged with selling human growth
hormone, fake Botox and a facial filler over the Internet to spas
across the country.
Rana J. Hunter, 60 - who used the name Julia Lynn Forbes to run her
business - operated Westgate Distributors, a company that sold HGH and
counterfeit Botox and Restylane, authorities said.
HGH from Mexico is available on the black market and "gray" markets in the United States. Although some HGH from Mexico is questionably pure, some brands of HGH from Mexico are often contaminated with foreign proteins, lead and heavy metals which cause allergic reactions. Consistency of strength is also a problem with many brands from Mexico (some being fake or dilluted).
At the present time, I consider the direct purchase of any form of HGH from Mexico to be very risky and Dangerous for individuals, both legally and medically.
HGH is legal
if prescribed by a medical doctor after a physical, blood work and
medical history forms / symptoms have been evaluated.
HGH is illegal
if purchased from over seas without a prescription and imported
into the US in an illegal or improper manner.

Medication/Drugs
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) prohibits persons
from importing into the United States any prescription drug that
has not been approved for sale by the United States Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), or which is adulterated or misbranded within
the meaning of the Act. Moreover, in those instances where a United
States manufacturer makes an FDA-approved prescription drug and
sends it abroad, the Act also prohibits any person other than the
original manufacturer from importing the drug back into the United
States. Thus, in virtually all instances, individual citizens are
prohibited from importing prescription drugs into the United States.
FDA Enforcement Policy Regarding the Personal Importation
of Violative Drugs
The FDA has developed guidance entitled “Coverage of Personal
Importations” which sets forth the FDA enforcement priorities
with respect to the personal importation of unapproved new drugs
by individuals for their personal use. Under this guidance, as an
exercise of enforcement discretion, FDA may allow an individual
entering the United States to import a three month supply of an
unapproved drug if all of the following conditions are met:
1. The intended use of the drug is for a serious condition for
which effective treatment may not be available domestically;
2. The drug will not be distributed commercially by the importer;
3. The product is considered not to represent an unreasonable risk;
4. The individual seeking to import the product affirms in writing
that the drug is for the patient’s own use and provides the
name and address of the doctor licensed in the United States responsible
for his or her treatment with the product, or provides evidence
that the product is for the continuation of a treatment begun in
a foreign country.
HGH Sprays
are the least effective way of receiving human growth hormone, first
because the dose in these sprays is so low (30,000 nano grams),
at best you would get a placebo effect and second because HGH has
difficulty penetrating the membrane of the body orally it is nearly
impossible. Most doctors who prescribe HGH via injection consider
HGH sprays to be an HGH scam.
Most people use the sprays,
get no results and then either give up on HGH or search for the
real thing, real human growth hormone does not come in the form
of a spray or pills.
Even worse, there are
real medical doctors actually promoting and selling the sprays online.
It is amazing they have the budget to be in the top advertising
position in google, makes one thing there are a lot of people out
there spending hundreds of dollars on worthless sprays and getting
the placebo effect.
HGH Pills:
The best HGH pills can do is stimulate your own pituitary gland
to produce HGH, Human Growth Hormone. If you were to swallow real
human growth hormone, hgh the stomach acids in your stomach would
destroy the HGH. It is impossible to get HGH from swallowing pills.
Companies selling HGH
pills often have amino acid combinations that have been known to
stimulate HGH production the pituitary gland, but ultimately the
pills are significantly less effective than taking direct HGH injections.
I noticed
a lot of sites selling HGH as Pills and HGH Sprays, are these safe
and effective?
