Pros:
Cons:
Increases risk of type II diabetes
May increase the risk of cancer
Very expensive
HGH gut is possible (when used with insulin)
For non-competitive bodybuilders, we do not see HGH being worth the risk, with it only producing mild to moderate results.
Also, HGH is very expensive, making it very costly to run in lengthy cycles.
It is also worth noting that moderate fat loss and muscle gains are possible to achieve naturally with effective training and diet.
However, we do understand patients who, hypothetically, may be elite bodybuilders and feel the need to take HGH in order to add another 10-15 pounds to win the Mr. Olympia.
