BENEFITS

IGF-1 is causing a great deal of excitement not only among bodybuilders but among people interested in reducing the systems of aging and those people interested in living the longest, healthiest and most active life possible.  This is the legacy of IGF-1.

According to researchers, IGF-1 increases lean body mass, reduces fat, builds bone, builds muscle, and builds nerves.  By taking it directly you bypass the pituitary gland which may be burnt out by the aging process.

Some researchers feel that IGF-1 is even more potent than growth hormone in terms of its direct effects.

IGF-1  Assisting in Fat Loss

We know that HGH increases the fat burning mechanism of the body, but because it increases IGF-1, the IGF-1 in turn, not only preserves muscle tissue but increases muscle mass.  IGF-1 may also improve the fat burning mechanism and improve hormonal weight loss effects without having to restrict calorie consumption.

IGF-1 Can Regenerate Nerves

One of the most exciting uses for IGF-1 is the repair of nerve damage that occurs in injury or illness.  When a nerve is damaged in the arm or leg the connection to muscle tissue is dramatically impaired.  IGF-1 can help repair these nerve endings.
