HGH BS

Anyone else think this sounds like complete and total bullshit?

Things on just the front page "free of side effects", clinical evidence "proving" rather than something more ambiguous, like maybe showing, and vague claims like " Soon after you begin taking this product, you and others will start noticing some profound changes in your appearance and overall health", and other such things set off my Bullshitometer.

There "evidence" appears to consist of one 19 year old study, with only 21 participants - not big numbers here. And thats it!

They do have a science pdf, which has loads of refernces, but include a link to wikipedia (peer reviewed?????) and a link to a website that doesn't exist, that from the link appears to be something to do with Ginseng?!, plus one thats referenced twice. Not great.

Great, other people looked at it! Now I don't have to bother actually looking at something besides the front page. =D

Ah, but do you trust my reply? I might be as full of woo as the next idiot.

Well, it pretty much fits with what I've expected, and your response highlights your trustworthiness. Also I'm lazy. So yes.

Fair enough mate ;-)
