Because many Clinical studies of HGH treatment in healthy older adults have been relatively small and short in duration, so there's little to no information about the long-term effects of HGH treatment. HGH treatment is approved in the United States only for treatment of growth hormone deficiency — and related problems associated with HIV infection. HGH is only effective if administered as an injection.
There's no pill form of human growth hormone available. Some dietary supplements that claim to boost levels of HGH come in pill form, but research doesn't show a benefit. Using HGH for a condition that isn't approved, such as building muscle or as an anti-aging treatment in older adults, is illegal.

But since these are barely regulated at all , they could have no actual HGH and contain potentially dangerous ingredients instead. There's no telling what you're really taking. Some people, including billionaire Peter Thiel who says he hopes to live to , take HGH to try to prevent aging. That application, however, is far from proven. Supplementation may actually have the opposite effect, according to the National Institute on Aging NIA , which summarized the research:.
At least one epidemiological study suggests that people who have high levels of naturally produced growth hormone are more apt to die at younger ages than those with lower levels of the hormone. Researchers have also studied animals with genetic disorders that suppress growth hormone production and secretion. They found that reduced growth hormone secretion actually promotes longevity in the tested species.
While the decline in HGH as we age might be part of why older people often feel less energized and fit, that same decline " may be offering important protection from cancer and other age-associated diseases," one study concluded. That means there's a chance HGH supplementation could actually increase the risk of cancer, which anti-aging pioneer Aubrey de Grey has called "the hardest aspect of aging to fix. Of course, that's a bit more challenging than a daily pill.
The bottom line is that taking HGH recreationally could have potentially disastrous consequences, especially if you don't have a valid prescription from a doctor.
And the known benefits are basically nil. For you.
