Discover the Anti-Aging Potential of Human Growth Hormone with Dustin Baker
May 07, 2024 Season 3 Episode 13
Juanique Roney & Gina Worful

"Human growth hormone is the overlooked master hormone governing metabolism, recovery, skin health, sexual function, and more. Yet low levels of its direct metabolite insulin-like factor-1 (IGF-1) are linked to diseases like Parkinson's, diabetes, and erectile dysfunction.

Science is constantly searching for ways to age gracefully.

While bioidentical hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone receive considerable attention, there is one that is much lesser known: Human Growth Hormone (HGH).

In this episode, Juanique Grover speaks with Dustin Baker, President of BioProtein Technology and BioPro+. They explore the science behind HGH, why it's only gaining traction now, and how it might offer a solution with fewer side effects than traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

Find out if this hormone can improve the quality of life for women going through perimenopause or menopause and for older men too! 

Could HGH contain the fountain of youth? Tune in to Season 3, Episode 13 of the Gutsy Health Podcast!
