The week before last, it was your knee joints aching as you walked uphill, and you couldn't remember the last time you were so out-of-breath. Last week it was your bladder, waking you up three or four times a night. And this week it's the brain fog, rolling in so thick you can hardly remember where you put the ketchup. Not that your knees are giving you a break. We're all getting older. The scariest thing about aging is how it seems to affect every part of you at once. Sometimes there's no opportunity to stop, reflect on your lifestyle, and make space on your calendar to deal with the changes one by one. But no matter how many different symptoms you feel, everything has one cause, and is summed up in one name: getting old. Forget the idea of costly physiotherapy for your sore joints one week, cold cream on your crow's-feet the next, an all-yogurt cleanse the week after that. If there's only one cause, then there's only one thing you need to turn back. And medical researchers have found the main cause of physical deterioration nearly 60 years ago. The next step was sixty years in the making: a way to make your own body reverse the basic physical causes of aging. It's all in a newly famous hormone called HGH. It stands for Human Growth Hormone, and it's responsible for regulating every aspect of how your body grows and rebuilds itself. Wear and tear is a natural part of getting around in the world, and your body has to constantly adapt in response to its surroundings. When you feel those twinges and see those wrinkles, that's a surefire sign that your body's HGH is beginning to get depleted. And the results are there for you, and all the world, to see: less of the hormone means saggier skin, weaker bones, a depressed immune system, slower thinking, and a lot more. It's a laundry list of the problems associated with growing old. The very rich have long been able to treat aging with costly injections of pure HGH. But the price tag on each treatment is upwards of $15,000. What if you don't have tens of thousands of dollars to throw around, especially if you're just curious or even skeptical?About the Author:
