TST + GH 300 g

TST + GH - always growing!

TST + GH by BioTech is a growth hormone-enhancing formula. Growth hormone (GH), also known as somatotropin, is a proteohormone synthesised by somatotrophs, which are cells found in the adenohypophysis.

GH functions:

• promotes anabolism, thus boosting muscle growth and hypertrophy by facilitating amino acid transport into cells (Fayh, Friedman, Sapata & De Oliveira, 2007).

• lipolytic effect, as GH stimulates lipolysis by activating lipoprotein lipase, thus increasing fatty acid oxidation in adipose tissue during calorie restriction and exercise. GH also promotes changes in body composition and slows down carbohydrate metabolism to stabilise blood glucose levels (Moller & Jorgensen, 2009) (Chromiak & Antonio, 2002; Mauras et al., 2000; Moller, Jorgense, Alberti, Flyvbjerg, & Schmitz, 1990; Quisth et al., 2005).

Exercise is a potent stimulus for GH secretion. However, several studies have revealed that GH does not respond to short-duration, low-intensity exercise, whereas short-duration, high-intense exercise leads to a significant increase in GH levels.

TST Testosterone is a gonadocorticoid synthesised in the interstitial cells of Leydig (testicles). In women, testosterone is synthesised primarily in the ovaries; a small amount is synthesised in the adrenal glands. In addition to producing androgenic effects, testosterone is also an anabolising agent, given its ability to increase nitrogen fixation and boost muscle protein synthesis.

TST + GH contains D-aspartic acid (DAA), Arginine-Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AAKG), L-glutamine, L-Carnitine, L-tartrate, L-ornithine hydrochloride and L-lysine. Vitamins and minerals have been added to this supplement for a more powerful effect. Vitamin B6 helps regulate hormone activity; zinc helps regulate blood testosterone levels. Vitamin B5 promotes the synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and certain neurotransmitters, in addition to reducing fatigue and exhaustion.
