Secratatropin Ingredients 10
Let's learn more about one of Secratatropin's ingredients, which is L-Leucine.
L-Leucine is an essential amino acid, is known as one of three branch-chain amino acids, which means that the body doesn’t produce it naturally. So for the body to get this key amino acid in the system it has to pull them from a variety of foods, but some--especially vegetarians--can benefit from dietary supplements. Amino acids are the building blocks from which proteins are made, and leucine is a component of femtin and astacin, two "buffer" proteins. The chemical formula of leucine is HO2CCH(NH2)CH2CH(CH3)2, and it is classified as a hydrophobic, meaning water-insoluble, protein.

Dietary Source
Leucine is found in foods that are high in protein, such as fish, meats, poultry and cottage cheese, as well as brown rice, beans, nuts and whole wheat.Foods high in leucine and protein can help maintain muscle while attempting to reduce body fat during weight loss.
A single 4 oz. serving of meat or poultry could supply a 130lb person with up to144 percent of the daily recommended intake of leucine. Seeds and nuts contain less leucine than meat, poultry and seafood; however, they are still high in the essential amino acid. Dairy (products) is another good source of leucine.
Dosage
Your requirements for leucine will depend on your weight, but an intake of 5 grams of leucine, in combination with 4 grams of valine, and 2 grams of isoleucine per day, may be healthy. People who are active may use leucine, in combination with valine and isoleucine, to help increase muscle gains.These needs can be met by adding whey protein powder to your diet. Talk to your doctor if you think you need to supplement your diet with leucine or if adding a leucine-rich whey protein product to your diet may help you gain and maintain muscle and energy.
Eat a low carbohydrate diet while taking leucine to prevent muscle breakdown and to maintain high energy levels. A protein rich diet further helps to increase muscle growth while taking leucine supplements. Individuals with kidney or liver function problems should not take leucine without first consulting a doctor, as ingesting large doses of amino acids may worsen these disorders.

About Human Growth Hormone
Growth hormone is a powerful anabolic hormone that occurs naturally in the human body. It is produced by the pituitary gland in the brain and stimulates the growth of muscle, cartilage, and bone. It is made throughout a person's lifetime but is more plentiful during youth. It stimulates growth in children and plays an important role in adult metabolism.
Aging is very much related to what we call Human Growth Hormone (HGH). It is a complex hormone that houses 191 amino acids and it is being produced chiefly by the pituitary gland.
HGH has been used since the 1950s to help children with growth problems, but it stayed under the radar for other uses until 1990, when Dr. Daniel Rudman reported in the New England Journal of Medicine that men taking a six-month course of HGH reduced their body fat by 14.4 percent while increasing lean muscle mass by 8.8 percent.
The study included just a dozen men, but it inspired a flood of anti-aging literature touting the benefits of growth hormone, along with countless web sites selling HGH creams and sprays.
(Human growth hormone use rises, but is it legal? April 11, 2007 By Caleb Hellerman CNN)
Since HGH is related to several body parts and functions, enhancement or increase of the HGH will be of big help. There are several benefits of HGH enhancement and one of these benefits is an increase in the level of energy. As we get older, a decrease in the energy level will be encountered. There are physical activities that we will not be able to accomplish anymore due to the lowering of energy.

About GHRP-6 (2)
GHRP-6 stands for “growth hormone releasing peptide”. As the name suggests, the product works by stimulating the body to release more Human Growth Hormone (HGH) and IGF-1. HGH and IGF-1 levels decline rapidly as one gets older, and it is this decline which is thought to be responsible for the aging process. Besides a much lower cost, GHRP-6 offers another distinct advantage over HGH injections as it does not shut down the body’s natural production of this hormone, it just enhances it.
Compared to GHRP-2, GHRP-6 is more attractive because at the recommended dosage it does not lead to desensitization and therefore diminishing effect over time as can happen with GHRP-2.
Possible benefits: Fat loss, muscle gain, increased strength, improved skin tone, better sleep, more energy, stronger bones and connective tissues.
Useful for: Bodybuilders looking to gain muscle; Ordinary people looking to lose fat; older persons looking for anti-aging benefits.
Use it before bed and/or post workout. Taken on an empty stomach (at least 2 hours since last meal), then wait at least 20-30 minutes after your injection before eating.
Works by subcutaneous injection into fat. It can be simultaneously injected in the same syringe as other peptides.
Description:
Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6 Synthetic is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 6 amino acids, having a molecular mass of 873 Dalton and a Molecular formula of C46H56N12O6.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized GHRP-6 in sterile 18MO-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Ipamorelin
Ipamorelin is a penta-peptide. (Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D- Phe-Lys-NH2) And, the strength it displays may very well make regular old Growth Hormone (GH) obsolete. But what athletes and bodybuilders really want to know is what is this wonder peptide capable of doing, how is it used, and how does it compare to the other GHRP peptides?
Athletes are taking Ipamorelin in a 200mcg -300mcg dosage, two or three times daily, using a tiny insulin needle to inject. They usually start with the lower dose since side effects can include headaches or what feels like a head-rush. Ipamorelin can be taken at anytime but taking it about 30-45 minutes before a workout would seem ideal because of the pulse in Growth Hormone (GH) it creates allowing for maximum growth.
Studies on the effects of Ipamorelin on bone growth, body weight, and GH release showed some interesting conclusions.In one experiment, various doses were administered over the course of 15 days to test the group's reactions.
There was a distinct and dose-dependent effect on body weight gain however, the treatment group did not show a change in total IGF-I levels. Nor did the treatment group produce serum markers of bone development. For example, the number of cells in the wide portion of the tibia (the shinbone) did not change significantly. This is a good thing because it suggests muscle growth with less potential for deformity of bone or cartilage.

IGF-1
IGF-1 isn't a top-secret chemical, nor is it a dangerous steroid. IGF1 is actually a natural molecular structure similar to insulin. IGF-1 is the abbreviation for Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1.Know in scientific circles as a polypeptide protein hormone, IGF-1 or Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 plays a vital role in childhood growth and stimulates anabolic effects (muscle building) in adults.
The primary purpose of IGF-1 is to stimulate cell growth. Every cell in the human body can be affected by IGF-1, but cells in muscle, cartilage, bone, liver, kidney, skin tissue, lungs, and nerves tend to be most positively affected.
There are 70 inter-connected amino acids that make up a single chain of IGF-1. IGF-1 is a hormone that is produced when the liver is stimulated by human growth hormone. When levels of HGH rise in the blood, the liver responds by producing more IGF-1. These higher "bursts" spur growth and regeneration by the body's cells, especially in muscle cells. Increases in IGF-1 levels have shown positive effects on increases in muscle strength, size, and efficiency. When you do not have enough IGF-1 in your body, whether caused by disease, malnutrition or a hormone imbalance, your growth can be stunted.
Several scientific tests have been conducted to determine the benefits of IGF-1 and thus have prompted companies to seek approval from the Federal Drug and Administration for substances that can increase the body's IGF-1 levels. Taken responsibly over time, products that increase IGF-1 can help improve muscularity and healing and recovery times. IGF-1 can also stimulate a decrease in body fat, an increase in lean muscle mass, improved skin tone and restful sleep. IGF-1 has also been documented to increase the rate and extent of muscle repair after injuries or strains. Not only do muscles recover more quickly, they also tend to return stronger and healthier than ever when levels of IGF-1 in the bloodstream are at their highest.
