When we fast, our bodies produce less insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), a hormone that is linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancers such as breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer. By reducing IGF-1 levels through intermittent fasting, we can lower our chances of ...
Dr. Aubrey de Grey says it turns out that is going to be easier to reverse the aging process than to prevent it. Â The reason is that it is easier to repair the damage than to prevent the damage from happening.

IGF-1, which is considered a reflection of GH levels (with some debate) have been low for me for years and I have no explanation for it. IGF-1 levels respond to total calorie intakes and total protein intakes, neither of which I lack. It's one area of my blood work that remains a...
That’s due to the reduction in insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels, which is a mediator of HGH’s anabolic effects and normally protects against muscle wasting. Patients with growth hormone deficiency symptoms tend to experience reduced endurance and lower energy levels. In combination ...
acromegaly are to normalize excessive hormone secretion, thus normalizing serum levels of growth hormone (GH) and of insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I), to reduce the clinical signs and symptoms of acromegaly and to reduce tumor size in order to relieve any symptoms due to tumor mass effect....

(IGF-1) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) was significantly higher in the medium from ADR-injured group,the activity of caspase-9, caspase-3 and the apoptosis rate increased significantly, the expression of Bax protein was higher and Bcl-2 Protein was lower in ADR-injured group(P 0.05). ...
In addition, protein supplementation increases growth factors like insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), a polypeptide that exerts a positive effect on skeletal integrity, muscle strength, immune response, and bone renewal. Protein malnutrition or under-nutrition leads to a “rubbery” callus, ...
The higher your natural anabolism (testosterone levels, IGF-1 levels, insulin and insulin muscle sensitivity, mTOR activation level) and the lower your natural catabolism (mostly cortisol levels), the better and more efficient your body is at using nutrients to build muscle. That means you require...
