Growth hormone body weight, effect

There have been some concerns expressed regarding the possible health consequences in adulthood (endocrinological and reproductive outcomes) of early-life isoflavone exposure from soy-based infant formula. The daily exposure of infants to isoflavones in soy-based infant formulas is 6- to 11-fold higher on a body weight basis than the dose that has hormonal effects in adults consuming soy foods. " However, evidence from adult and infant populations indicates that dietary isoflavones in soy-based infant formulas do not adversely affect human growth, development, or reproduction. [Pg.387]

Then, in the 1980s, GHB was endorsed by the health food industry as a growth hormone stimulator, and was marketed and sold to help body builders increase muscle mass and maintain weight. But, also, GHB was embraced as an aid in weight loss and as an over-the-counter sleep agent because of its sedative side effects. [Pg.214]

The adverse effects of somatropin differ between adults and children. In adults, adverse effects are commoner in men, in heavier patients, and in adult-onset growth hormone deficiency. Efficacy is no greater in those who develop adverse effects. The higher rate of adverse effects is due to the higher dose of somatropin when calculated according to body weight, and also to lower sensitivity to somatropin in women than in men (2-4). Rapid dose... [Pg.3163]

Table Only the 32 mg dose elicited significant increases in body weight gain after 7 injections however, the fourteen day responses to 4 and 16 mg also were statistically significant. Porcine growth hormone (PGH) enhanced weight increases after 7 and 14 injections at all doses. In comparing the effects of PPP(H) and PGH, it was apparent that the former was appreciably less efficacious in stimulating body weight gain. Similar results were obtained in adult...
