supplements IGF -1, HGH, and Muscle I n your pursuit to live a healthier life, it is important to know that not all supplements are created equally. Today many people use synthetic HGH to improve their muscle development, burn fat, and expedite their recovery. Unfortunately, this product, which is synthetically created in a lab, does not come without risk. Not only is HGH illegal in sport, and one of the substances athletes are commonly tested for, but it also causes a wide range of negative side effects, including hypothyroidism, heart disease, high cholesterol, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, joint pain, headaches, muscle pain, hypertension, and increased cardiovascular risk. But what’s the alternative? Natural IGF-1: What Is It? Why Choose Pure IGF? Whenever you take a synthetic product or isolated version, which can include synthetic HGH or synthetic IGF 1, your body experiences an imbalance—resulting in negative side effects. Fortunately, IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor) from Pure Factors is a natural version that provides the positive recovery and strength support associated with synthetic versions —without the harmful side effects and health risks. IGF-1 from Pure Factors is naturally derived from deer antler velvet, which is sourced from the antlers of free-range elk living in the Midwestern United States. It consists of a 70-chain amino acid sequence—the same kind naturally produced by your body on its own. Offered by Pure Solutions, Pure IGF offers an array of advantages that make it a better, healthier choice. Some of these benefits include: All natural quality and sustainably sourced: This product is a 100% natural super food supplement, and is never made with synthetic ingredients. Pure IGF is manufactured right here in the United States, instead of being sourced from China and New Zealand like the products other companies use. Pure Solutions derives the IGF from their own farms so they have full control over the entire extraction process—from the conception of the deer to the bottling of product. Glass bottling: Pure Solutions packages all products in amber glass bottle containers to avoid the binding of growth factors, which is what happens with plastic packaging. Maximum absorption: Pure IGF comes in liquid form to allow for maximum absorption into the bloodstream, which is more effective than tablets and capsules administered orally. It is also extracted into USP grade alcohol to aid in the preservation and delivery of growth factors, unlike the citric acid and artificial flavoring found in most other products. Legal and accessible: Because this effective product is made using all natural ingredients and raw materials, it is completely legal and available for purchase without a written prescription from your doctor. Multi-purpose: In addition to cellular repair, recovery and regeneration, velvet antler extract and Pure IGF products help to improve mental clarity and focus, enhance quality of sleep, and increase immune support. By: Nevine Duncan and Pat Jimenez. Pure IGF by Pure Solutions is the cleanest source of deer antler velvet on the market.
