When we were teenagers and young men, we could sleep on a hard floor in a weird position, get up and not be sore at all. I am sure as some of you read that sentence you were thinking about how sore and stiff you would be.
I asked many people why this is. Then, I came across an answer that made sense when I spoke to Dr. Craig Binner DC. He explained that when we are teenagers and into our early 20s, our bodies have an abundance of growth hormone. This is to aid with the actual physical growth of our bodies.
As we get older, our bodies do not need as much growth hormone because our bodies are at full maturity. So, our bodies only produce what is needed in order to maintain or repair our mature bodies. It reduces the amount of natural human growth hormone because we no longer need it for accelerated body growth.
We wrote about steroids last week (https://www.facebook.com/MensFitnessAfter40/posts/1041370939744887). This is a synthetic way to give the body growth hormones. But, it can and does have negative side effects, some quite serious.
Think about this. If our bodies were capable of producing human growth hormone when we were younger, why can’t it do it now? The answer is that the body can increase our natural human
growth hormone production. But we have to help it along. You can do high intensity interval training, get good sleep and at least 8 more things. 3 of those things happen to be supplements.
So, today we are going to share 3 supplements that have been known to naturally increase human growth hormone production.
We have to remind you of the following for legal reasons > We are not medical professionals. This is from our own experience and for entertainment purposes only. As always, consult with
your medical professional before taking anything.
With that being said, here they are.
Gamma Aminobutyric Acid is the formal name of GABA. It is a non-protein amino acid that sends signals around your brain (neurotransmitter). It has a calming effect on your brain and central nervous system. When taken before bed, it can increase natural HGH production by up to 200%.
L-arginine and L-lysine. These 2 amino acids combined together before exercise and before sleep has shown to increase natural HGH production by….drum roll…700%! And that is one reason it is commonly in protein powders.
We commonly take 1/2 teaspoon of each of these 3, in powder form, around 30 minutes before we work out. And we only use these on the days that we go to the gym.
There are many places that you can get these supplements. However, our preferred source is Bulk Supplements. They use pure raw ingredients, have an FDA inspected facility, lab tested for purity and they are completely transparent (that means they will provide certificates of authenticity on their products).

Remember guys, as we get older we can still feel and look great. We simply have to approach things a little differently than when we were younger because our bodies have changed.
