Bad idea? The definition of that term could very well be "injecting Growth Hormone." It the worst of all bad ideas. If you were looking for information on this topic it's probably because you've already heard the horror stories: athletes who have abused injections and how badly this attempt to maximize athletic performance can backfire.
What do you really know any of the details? The horror stories aren't really JUST horror stories. They are often real cases of individual who were into injecting Growth Hormone (for various reasons) and they had to deal with the backlash. So why exactly is injecting HGH a bad idea?
The answer is just this:
1. This is probably the least of your worries regarding injecting Growth Hormone, but it's CRAZY expensive! People have been known to spend tens of thousands of dollars annually and that's just ridiculous!
2. These injections put your health in danger.
3. There are many horrible side effects.
Side effects of Growth Hormone injections:
1. Acromegaly...it's not pretty and it's not health (at all).
2. Due to the onset of acromegaly...premature death.
3. Enlargement of the heart, not reversible
4. Risk for diabetic coma
5. Excessive hair growth
6. Water retention
7. Damaged liver
8. Thyroid damage
These are the facts. Can you see how the horror stories that you've heard in the past might be true now? Most or all of them are probably based around the side effects and problems listed above. That's because they actually happen.
So if you're looking to actually benefit from HGH rather than deal with a crazy number of very serious side effects...you should avoid injecting Growth Hormone and choose a homeopathic supplement instead. It's much safer and offers an even wider variety of benefits with no known side effects.
