Myostatin is Making You Fat and Causing Low Testosterone and Growth Hormone

Most people have never heard of myostatin, and I would like to point out that most doctors do not know about their importance in fat and muscle regulation either. It is an exciting growth factor protein that actually controls how your body stores fat and grows muscle. The higher the amount of myostatin in you the more fat you will accumulate, and the less muscle mass you will be able to maintain.

In extreme cases of animals and even sometimes humans are born with mutations in the gene that produce myostatin, this results in extreme muscle growth, and no fat accumulation. Seeing the dramatic effects of not having myostatin at all, most of us would agree that complete deficiency may not be best for us. However, we can also be confident that too much will keep us trapped in the Downward Cycle of Aging.

As we know, as we age GH we start to decline, but what you may not know is that Growth Hormones actually block the production of miostatin. So, when your growth hormone levels go down, myostatin levels rise, making it impossible for you to stop the accumulation of fat around your middle or to lose your muscles.

So how do we stop this severe imbalance from happening? We make sure our GH levels don't go down! I know what you're thinking, "Oh, as you can easily say, let me think happy and my GH will not diminish", and I get your point. It sounds so easy, but HOW do we actually do it?

In a study published in the International SportsMed Journal, there are two ways to increase your Growth Hormone, helping to control your body and your health. And, I will go ahead and add the third mentioned in some other publications.

1.) Hormone Replacement Therapy

They show that managing rGH (Growth hormone) dramatically increases lean body mass, endurance, performance, and lowers body fat. This may be attributed to the fact that rGH reduced myostatin by over 31%

Growth Hormone Replacement. This is the standard treatment for adult growth hormone deficiency. Replacing your GH with bioidentical hormones is a great way to block myostatin, and boost your muscles, while losing fat.

2.) Intense training

The journal shows that only intense exercise is effective in increasing GH levels in older men and women. They showed that Intensive Strength training (using heavy weights, for minimal representation) was 425% more effective in increasing GH output than lower weights in high reps.

The type of Sprint Exercise is a secondary recommendation because they find that only cardio is not at risk for counteracting lactic acid reactions will increase growth hormone, indicating that sprint type activity is more effective than slow-speed cardio. The study recommends a minimum of 30 seconds, as the 6-second interval is not long enough to produce unauthorized hormone production.

3.) Nutrition and Eating Habits

The third is to increase your growth hormone levels is to eat according to a specific plan designed to increase your hormone levels. It has shown more studies than my site, that diets around 40-50% fat, 25-35% protein, and 20-30% carbohydrates are gongs to create the optimal environment to produce not only growth hormones, but also Other Life hormones like Testosterone.

Remember, Aging is inevitable, but Viewing and Feeling are optional.
