HGH-UpFor the past several decades human growth hormones (HGH) have become popular for consumers who are looking to hide aging, decrease fat, and build muscle.  Nutrition supplement companies homed in on this popularity, and have marketed their own HGH products for at least the past 10 years.  Among these companies, Applied Nutriceuticals, which makes the popular supplement HGHUP.

Applied Nutriceuticals HGHUP is advertised to promote radical increases in its ability to manufacture growth hormones and testosterone.  The company describes this product as unique, claiming it to be the first hANh (Hybrid Anabolic/Near Hormonal).  This essentially means that this product combines both anabolic and hormonal responses to stimulate growth, but is said to be less powerful than products that engage the growth hormones specifically.

However, the company argues that this may be better for those with fragile health, because the likelihood of side effects is greatly decreased. HGHUP is advertised to promote HGH and testosterone better than any other available product without a prescription, and has even claimed to have experienced success in pre-clinical trials on human subjects.

HGHUP reviews reveal that consumers are findings these marketing claims to be untrue, alleging that they found this HGH supplement to be ineffective.

HGH Supplement Marketing

HGH supplements have been especially popular among athletes and bodybuilders, with the promise of performance enhancement. However, a number of these HGH products are facing a class action lawsuit investigation for a variety of reasons, including allegedly making untrue claims and relying on false science. Scientists have pointed out that the human growth hormone itself is a peptide, a long amino acid chain structure found inside the body, and cannot be taken in an oral form. Along with the technical complications, experts state that even if the growth sequence was properly replicated, it would be dissolved in the consumer’s stomach.

For this reason, many medical experts and doctors are highly suspicious and critical of products that are said to be human growth hormones, and discourage patients from trying them.  Many times these products contain a variety of homeopathic ingredients said to stimulate growth, but either end up causing complications or are completely ineffective. Even liquefied growth hormones that can be injected intravenously are recommended against, because often they are combined with different amino acid chains to further promote growth, but cause the consumer to become ill or injured due to biological complications.

HGH UP is said to differ from other human growth hormones because the chemical compounds in the products are designed to work in conjunction with the consumer’s body.

Manufacturing companies sell these hormones by calling them “Boosters” or “Releasers”; products designed to help promote HGH production. However, this is not the case for most of these products, which often contain ineffective ingredients that are potentially unsafe for the consumer. Many consumers have filed lawsuits against these companies, alleging product liability and false advertising.
