• Growth hormone stimulates protein anabolism, enhances fat metabolism, and regulates carbohydrate metabolism. Often times it is referred to as the “holy grail” by bodybuilders and life extensionists. It is widely known for its powerful anabolic and lipotropic effects.

  • Alpha-GPC increases endogenous human Growth Hormone (hGH) secretion by the anterior pituitary in conjunction with Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH). Alpha-GPC is absorbed quickly from the gastrointestinal tract and transported via the blood to all cells and tissues. In the brain, it increases GHRH-stimulated secretion of hGH by the somatotrophe cells in the anterior pituitary.

  • Alpha-GPC has also been shown to increase mental focus and cognitive function, increase strength, and improve balance and coordination.

  • N-Acetyl-5-Methoxytryptamine (NA5M) is produced naturally in the body by the pineal gland. The highest amounts of naturally occurring NA5M are at night. In recent clinical studies, it has been shown to increase free growth hormone levels significantly. As such, it is quickly gaining popularity among bodybuilders as one of the most potent natural boosters of growth hormone.

  3. Valcavi &al, 0.5 mg MEL orally was found to increase plasma GH levels of healthy male volunteers, and also to increase the plasma GH response to GHRH. Clin.Endocrinol 26:453-458, 1987.

  4. Esposti &al, 0.4 mg/kg MEL was injected to healthy subjects at 09:00 a.m., and a significant increase was found in plasma GH. The rise could be blocked by naloxone, indicating that the effect of MEL might be mediated by opioids, J.Endocrinol.Invest. 11:103-106, 1988.

  5. Petterborg &al, 0.5 to 2 mg MEL orally increased GH secretion in a patient who lacked endogenous MEL, Brain Res.Bull. 27:181-185, 1991.
