Modern advances in medical research have uncovered a number of previously unknown facts concerning fat storage
and energy utilization by the body. Recent studies have found that higher levels of circulating Human Growth Hormone
(HGH) are associated with less body fat to better lean tissue stored fat ratio. Additionally, naturally elevating
the levels of HGH led to a significant decrease in fat storage and greater feelings of energy and vigor. HGH is
a hormone that is widely known for its powerful anabolic (muscle building) effects as well as its lipotropic (breakdown
and utilization of body fat) effects.
The overall result of these effects is an increase in lean tissue mass and a decrease in body fat. Human Growth
Hormone (HGH) is produced, stored and secreted by the pituitary gland located at the base of the brain. As you
advance in age, HGH is able to continue to be made and stored by the brain; however, it's level of secretion (release
into the bloodstream) falls way off. This lack of circulating HGH is the factor that scientists now believe is
responsible for the tendency of older individuals to have increased difficulty losing body fat. GABA signals the
pituitary to naturally release HGH. Studies have shown that 90 minutes following GABA supplementation, HGH levels
increase over five times the previous levels.
GABA is an acronym for Gamma Amino Butyric Acid.
It effects fat loss in a variety of ways. For example, GABA helps lower blood glucose levels, which work to regulate
your metabolism. Most importantly, however, is GABA's role as a facilitator in the secretion of the lipotropic
(fat burning) substancev HGH or Human Growth Hormone. On average, an 80 year old has 1/20th of the HGH he or she
had in his twenties.
Obviously, GABA is not the only variable in weight loss. However, clinical studies have shown that, given the same
eating and exercise habits, people using GABA tend to lose excess weight faster. And they feel stronger and better
during the process!
