F.A.Q.
(Frequently Asked Questions)
Q. When's the best time to take MGF-1?
A. If you're taking MGF-1 for building muscle and strength, you should take it about an hour and a half before a workout on an empty on an empty stomach. Take MGF-1 on workout days only.
Q. Why do I need to wait after eating to take MGF-1?
A. Digestive juices need to be low so the fragile peptides and aminos are not destroyed by them. Also, insulin levels will have a chance to come down, which will allow for a greater release of GH.
Q. Can I take too much MGF-1?
A. Yes you can. All we need to do is to get the body to start responding. Twice as much MGF-1 won't make the pituitary gland any faster or with more GH. However, in rare instances, too much GH can be released, creating symptoms very similar to taking too much synthetic growth hormone. The classic symptoms are: aching joints and/or a hypoglycemic effect. Please take as directed.
Q. Will MGF-1 help health conditions like lupus, fibromyalsia, Chronic fatigue, arthritis, etc?
A. It has helped many people with these conditions. In the case of auto-immune disorders, the release of growth hormone has a positive effect on the regulation of the thymus gland and the 20 or 30 different immune-related proteins it produces. Also, the release of growth hormone stimulates certain immune factors to make insulin-like growth factor-1 for the purpose of boosting the body's ability to fight disease. Growth hormone also has a very positive effect on degenerative conditions such as arthritis.
Q. What should I take MGF-1 with?
A. It is best to take it with a drink that does not increase insulin levels. Fruit juice is alright, if it is diluted some. Don't take it with your protein shake as this will confuse the absorption of the amino acids in MGF-1.
Q. Can I take MGF-1 with andro stacks?
A. Yes. Any supplement or prohormone that increases anabolic hormones will work well with MGF-1. Supplements that increase insulin levels, or mimic insulin, will diminish its effects. Creatine, protein, meal replacements should all be taken a couple hours or at least an hour after taking MGF-1.
Q. Are there any medications that shouldn't be taken with MGF-1?
A. Although we don't know of any contraindications, some medications can cut down on MGF-1 effectiveness. Always follow the advice of your health professional when taking prescriptions. Take MGF-1 some other time of day when it won't interfere with the medication and the medication won't interfere with MGF-1. Prescriptions have powerful delivery mechanisms that, many times, target the same cell receptor sites as MGF-1. We don't want to interfere with that.
Q. Can I take in carbohydrates before I work out?
A. Yes, as long as you've given MGF-1 long enough to be absorbed Wait at least an hour and 15 minutes before you take in carbs. Once the GH is released, the carbs won't decrease its effectiveness. In fact, IGF-1 will remain fairly high for several hours making it possible to workout 2-3, even as many as 4 hours later.
Open Clinical Study
Effects of MGF-1 Growth Hormone Secretagogue on:
- IGF-1 A(insulin-like growth factor-1) levels
- Weight gain (or loss)
- Body-fat %
- Strength
The Thirteen participants of study were:
10 bodybuilders ranging in ages from 22 to 49
5 bodybuilders (3 males, 2 females) had at least 4 years training
5 bodybuilders (3 males, 2 females) had less than 1 year of training
(no. 9 female has been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)
3 athletes from football (2 males 19 yrs and 20 yrs) and powerlifting (1 male,
27 yrs. 220 lb weight class) also participated
- Base levels were measured the first day of the study. Subsequent levels were measured at 4 weeks and 8 weeks.
- IGF-1 levels were measured by Somatomedin-C plasma test (nannograms per deciliter of blood) before workouts.
- Weight and body fat % were measured in the morning, body fat by caliper method.
- Strength was measured in bench press and squat on 3 athletes.

Other Facts of Interest:
- After age 20, our active level of growth hormone starts to drop. By age 80 we have less than 25% of what we had at 20. Once that level falls below a certain amount, the aging process starts to be noticeable, usually around 35 years of age. This is when growth hormone drops to about 50% of what it was in our early 201s.
- The body produces growth hormone throughout life, but as we age, less gets into the system where it can carry out its function of constantly repairing and rebuilding our bodies.
- Growth hormone is made in the pituitary gland, which is in the brain.
- The hypothalamus gland (also in the brain) signals the pituitary gland to secrete growth hormone into the blood stream... a process known as "releasing."
- This process of the "releasing" of growth hormone is actually what slows down with age. The signaling mechanism of the hypothalamus starts to decline in our late 201s. This signaling mechanism uses GHRP2s (growth hormone releasing peptides).
- Many health professionals now believe that all the weaknesses and maladies that come with old age are treatable, reversible conditions and that growth hormone is the key to the anti-aging process.
- A synthetic version of human growth hormone is available by prescription, but can cost as much as $1200 per month and may have side-effects.
- After 2 years of research, scientists have duplicated the signaling mechanisms (GHRP2s) that tell the pituitary gland to release growth hormone into the blood stream. These new GHRP2s come from completely natural sources.
- This new technology is now available in a formula that costs about 1/10th of the prescription growth hormone drug and has no side-effects.
