Fibromyalgia and HGH Therapy Comments


"Chronic pain is something many of us are fortunate to not know first hand. Others are far less lucky. If you hear of anyone with pain, think about SomaLife gHP."Don Waechter



Don Waechter's comment:

I work at the largest naturopathic clinic in Eastern Canada as a nutrition counsellor and microscopist. On staff we have a Dr. of Chiropractic, 2 Naturopathic doctors and doctors of acupuncture from China and affiliated is a respected college of massage therapy which teaches a 2-year course. Our clinic sees many chronic pain cases including fibromyalgia.

I have never seen anything as fast and effective as SomaLife gHP for fibromyalgia for many cases. Of course we know all about current practices, treatments, etc, but the Somalife has truly been a blessing for patients, beginning to take effect in as quickly as 2-4 days.

FIBROMYALGIA PERSPECTIVE: Some facts and observations:





Duncan Crow's comment:

I started out early on using Durk and Sandy's Power Maker II, which contains 18 grams of arginine per once-a-day dose. in 30 days friends were asking me if I was working out but I hadn't been. Power Maker II contains a lot of nutrients and choline, which helps muscle tone, for enhanced effect.

Years later I was introduced to the amino acid stack SomaLife gHP, which effectively triggers HGH release. HGH is converted to insulinlike growth factor IGF-1 in the liver. I've been on SomaLife gHP for about 4 years but just recently switched briefly to colostrum. Colostrum is a bit different in that it contains IGF-1, which is absorbed into the bloodstream and taken directly to cells, bypassing the conversion process and the biological control thereof. Colostrum also contains other growth factors.

I drink it in a whey shake; undenatured whey and selenium create the body's master antioxidant, glutathione, which has been described as the "seat of immune response" and the "most important single factor for prognosis and disease state". Colostrum's growth factors almost immediately put the easily assimilable peptides and amino acids in the whey where they should be, nicely done for a light snack.

My wife and I are on a rather high fat diet even though she has no gallbladder. We use mainly milk fat, which is mainly well assimilated by mammals, with very little digestion required. 2 quarts each per week plus lots of butter in our vegetables.

Colostrum has a high oil content so it doesn't mix in water well and many people eat it off the spoon, but if you put 1/3 cup of cream in the blender, turn it on low speed and dump in two heaping tbsp of colostrum it all emulsifies. Add 1.5 cups milk, 2 scoops of undenatured whey shake, and turn the thing off at the soonest opportunity so it doesn't break the whey. We add 2 tsp inulin for bowel ecology maintenance, and sometimes 10,000 IU of vitamin D powder. That's probably good for 2 people but the dose is not too high to use it as a single serving.

I six months you'll never want to give up these two classes of supplements. Just get the dose right; I'm not absolutely positive 2 heaping tbsp per adult is a high enough colostrum dose, as body builders commonly use 4 or even 6 precisely for the IGF-1 increase. One might argue against the extreme, and I decided cost was one factor, thinking of diminishing returns. Still, 2 heaping tbsps looks like a lot of colostrum when you put it in your cup and you can "guesstimate" what a mammal pup of 150 lb would drink in colostrum weight in the first day to check my own guess :)

Mood, well being, energy despite fibromyalgia or so on, libido etc can all change and improve in a few days if elevated nutrition and water consumption is maintained; fast responders categorically start noticing physical changes with normal dose HGH therapy or the SomaLife gHP amino acid stack in 3 months. Can't say that is so for other commercial amino acid stack efficacy because SomaLife has patented a range of the optimal ingredients so competing formulas have to be literally "anything but optimal" by law, so, many also contain testosterone enhancers and vitamin optimisers etc in order to build one's body at all even in the six months.

The beauty of amino stacks is that you could blend your own; I know a fella who was getting results but saving in the end only about 15%. Perhaps you could save 20% if you get the mix right, shipped in bulk within the USA, and with the absolute purity of the ingredients that is required for it to work. Buy some of each free amino acid, following the formula range in the SomaLife patent or just the current formula on the label, and see if it dissolves at all or leaves colour in a glass of water. If it does, try agin with another brand.

With either impure amino acids or a crappy formula the experiment may not work unless you double dose, then you've lost the cost advantage. "To take our recommended serving of amino acids would require 30 500mg caps" is the advice from a prominent amino acid stack website. 15 grams per dose is a lot, and you can do better with better ingredients.

A 9 gram L-Arginine serving increased serum HGH by over 60% according to research done in 2005 at Syracuse University by Dr. Jim Stoppani, the groundbreaking Isidori study on my site: http://tinyurl.com/SomaLife-gHP/ saw 550% HGH increase using a synergistic formula of 2 amino acids, lysine and arginine ketoglutarate, and SomaLife gHP elevates HGH 800% according to Brad King of Victoria BC, and 700% according to Dr. MacLeod of Salmon Arm BC and Dr. White of Kelowna BC, in 30 minutes, with just over 5 grams of 5 amino acids of the right ratio and absolute purity. Big difference.

I still will use and suggest SomaLife gHP although I don't sell it anymore. I know it works reliably and I'm happy with that.



Jo's story:

When I hooked up with Jo-Anne on November 20 2007 she had been pretty crippled with fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis and IBS. She still had a cane and brace, but had recently got rid of her scooter, probably due to learning something at the fibromyalgia support club she started in Merritt BC, which led to her changing her diet a little for a couple of years. She still had fibromyalgia symptoms including periodic crashes from overwork but she was toughing it out in pain the next day.

Right from the start I put her on a few nutritional and anti-aging supplements that I discuss on-list, including SomaLife gHP for the first 1.5 years. I got rid of three boxes of crappy carbs -- noodles and hamburger helper -- out of her cupboard, and started her on a real food and low carb diet. Then I pushed for getting her off work as well as the hotel chambermaid when she had to move furniture during their big reno push; it was resulting in her working in fibro pain the next day, with no opportunity for relief.

Her hip and knee (osteoarthritis often goes with fibro and bowel issues) were still bothering her off and on a year later when she got rid of the cane and the brace. She has xrays and the doctors advice on the osteoarthritis in 2006 was that it was degenerative. But she got wanded during the Amega demonstration in Duncan on May 6 2010 and that pain went away.

Jo's second SomaLife program will last 8 months, by the fifth month she had taken physical part time work again as apartment manager and caretaker/custodian for a three-story walk-up with no sign of either hip or knee pain or a fibromyalgia crash after three months.

I think we found just the right amount of exercise to keep Jo fit, and she's obviously responding very well to anti-aging, still getting firmer, losing fat, obviously becoming younger and enjoying it.

-ADDENDUM:---------------------------------------------

In addition to that, today we both use pregnenolone. My reasoning is that Pregnenolone converts into what the body needs to keep hormonal balance and every reaction is controlled, so if your system works you don't need to concern yourself about the balance because that's working too.

But I think that if you're not keeping HGH high you may not need much pregnenolone. Actively growing and thriving cells are known to need more of everything including HGH to maintain that growth, and without the elevated HGH of youth you will necessarily be maintaining, and depreciating at, an adult or elderly HGH level, regardless of the pregnenolone building block being there.

Low HGH is most likely to be the growth, recovery and repair limiter in an adult. HGH levels have to be there or your overall metabolic rate will be slower, your cells absolutely can't grow and thrive, and the lower repair and recovery rate means you don't need as much nutrient or pregnenolone because you're still on a downward spiral of obsolescence mandated by nature, rather than surfing a regenerative wave like you did in early adulthood.

Jo and I took SomaLife gHP to increase HGH for awhile before we started on pregnenolone. We took preg for the support for hormonal values it can provide, to match the elevated HGH we were inducing, as opposed to waiting for our repeated HGH increase to gradually ramp up our hormonal values by rebuilding the glands over several months. Seems it's much faster and better at rejuvenating as a program.
