Pike Place Nutrition proudly presents a remarkable supplement, Youth Formula I
AGE REVERSAL A REALITY?
A New England Journal of Medicine has reported a major breakthrough affecting the aging process. Scientific research shows that supplementing a natural body hormone can produce these amazing benefits in people past their prime:
LONGEVITY BREAKTHROUGH
Current users of the growth hormone formula report these improvements after six months of use:
Youth Formula I Testimonials
"After three months use of the Youth Formula I, I noticed more energy, gained muscle, definite improvement of skin texture, and face lift. I also lost 25 pounds. My patients are very happy with the formula as well. Especially my hypothyroid patients are enjoying much more energy than natural alone. Thanks for a great product, which has stood the test of time." -Theresa Vernon, Licensed Acupuncturist-
"I have been released from my surgeon and from my comprehensive orthopedic physical therapy group in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, after 3 1/2 months and a 6 1/4 in scar following my surgery to repair a severely injured rotator cuff with reattachment of the torn muscles. I learned from the Internet that most people require from 9 to 12 months to recover from that surgery. I am convinced that I owe my speedy recovery from that surgery to Youth Formula I." -Robert A. Fl-
"My husband and I have been using Youth Formula I, for about 2 months, people have been commenting on how young I look. I have been passing for about 15 years younger than my age. I'm thrilled, as I'm old enough to be a grandmother. I've also noticed that old muscle injury that I've had is clearing up. I can't wait to see what surprises each month brings. We are putting our teen-age children on the formula also. Thank you so much." -Bernadette Jean-Marie-
I'm sending this in response to our recent phone conversations regarding my use of "Youth Formula I" and the recent saliva test results that I received. As you know, I have been using and comparing several amino acid Growth Hormone releasers for over a year, and I have had several blood tests to check my plasma IGF-1 levels. The blood tests were somewhat unpleasant, as well as expensive.
Anyway, I found this saliva test kit from VesPro, and I was able to compare 2 different GH releasers, one of which was yours. The reference ranges for Free IGF-1 in saliva is shown below. The numbers are lower, since Free IGF-1 in saliva is in a much lower concentration than in plasma:
Age Saliva
16-24 years: 0.8-2.5 ng/ml
25-39 years: 0.7-1.4 ng/ml
40-55 years: 0.5-1.2 ng/ml
55+ years: 0.3-1.0 ng/ml
My saliva level for the other product was only about 1.3 ng/ml, but for your product it was 1.7. According to VesPro and the Diagnos Tech Lab, my Free IGF-1 concentration would be equivalent to a 300+ blood serum result. That is in the range that Dr. Klatz recommends in his book "Grow Young With HGH". He discusses a study in which the participants had IGF-1 levels (plasma) that were the mean for people in their 30's, which is upper 200's to low 300's. At those levels, you apparently get the most benefits of GH with a low risk of side effects. I usually take 3 of your Youth Formula capsules per day. I'm about 5'9", and weigh about 140 lbs, with a slender build. I have never reached an IGF-1 level as high with other products as I did with yours, and I have tried about 6 other Growth Hormone releasers so far. Most gave me an IGF-1 level of about 250 or less, which is somewhat below Dr. Klatz's optimum range. I was glad that your product allowed me to finally reach levels of 300+. I also think the saliva test (that anyone can do at home) is more convenient than blood tests, and more affordable as well. Thanks for having one of the better GH releasers available today! -Steve Carney
"The effects of six months of human growth hormone on lean body mass and adipose-tissue were equivalent in magnitude to the changes incurred during 10-20 years of aging."
V.A. Medical Center and Department of Medicine, Stanford University Medical Center:
Concludes: "It is possible that chronic physiologic GH and/or IGF-I replacement therapy might reverse (or prevent) some of these "inevitable" sequelae of aging". (Study of GH therapy in the elderly - March 1992.)
Dr. Jorgensen and Dr. Christian of Copenhagen, Denmark, in European Journal of Endocrinology, 1994:
"Replacement therapy with Growth Hormone has shown beneficial/normalizing effect on parameters such as cardiac and renal function, thyroid hormone metabolism, bone metabolism, sweat secretion, total and regional fuel metabolism and psychological well being"
Dr. Anthony Karpos, M.D.:
"We really have something here which may be able to reverse some of the problems associated with aging."
Drs. Ramias, Shamos, and Schiller of St. Joseph Hospital Medical Center in Phoenix, AZ:
The Doctors found HGH to be a potent anabolic agent "Daily Administration of human growth hormone in the first week after trauma would enhance the metabolic status.... resulting in reduced morbidity and earlier discharge from hospital." (May 1992, Journal of Surgery. Vol 111, 495-502.)
Dr. Jake Powrie, M.D. and Dr. Andrew Weissberger, St. Thomas Hospital, London England:
"All adults with growth hormone deficiency should now be considered for growth hormone replacement therapy." (1995)
Dr. Rosen, M.D. and Dr. G. Johannsson, M.D. of University Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden:
"There is no evidence suggestion that Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy causes any unfavorable long term side effects." (Hormone Research, 1995)
