GROWTH HORMONE
Bone Disorders
One form of extreme short stature is caused by abnormal formation and growth of cartilage and bone. Children with a skeletal dysplasia, or chondrodystrophy, are short and have abnormal body proportions; intelligence is normal. Some chondrodystrophies are inherited, others are not. The underlying causes of most of these skeletal dysplasias are not known, although researchers are working to identify the genetic and biochemical mechanisms that are involved. The chances of parent shaving a second child with the same problem cannot be estimated until the specific type of skeletal dysplasia is identified from physical examination and bone x-rays. The HGF booklet, "Achondroplasia," provides more information about a common form of this group of bone disorders.
It is now evident that even more advanced substitutes for growth hormone are becoming available
as research continues. One of the most popular growth hormone natural stimulants
is a product called "GROWTH BOOSTER PLUS" which can be learned about at www.growtall.com Growth Booster Plus helps stimulate
growth hormone releasing factor (GHRF),
the hypothalamic chemical that directs the pituitary to produce growth hormone, and
somatomedin, the "middle-man" that links growth hormone with linear growth.
