Natural Inflammation and Arthritis Relief with Lemon and Frankincense Oil

I got this from a Samoan Pastor (Frank M.) who got it from a kid in the gym he was going to.  As he told me he was reduced to walking on crutches due to knee problems from years of football. A young man came up to him and said do this every night, it’s how my mom fixed my knee. He did it for months as he could not afford surgery. Well it worked.


He searched out the kid but never found him. Frank refers to the kid as his angel.

Give it a try. All you have to lose is a little money.

1  Clean area.

Rub fresh lemon juice on the area mixed with 1 – 3 drops of frankincense oil.

SeroVital-HGH: Anti-Aging, Fat Loss and Growth Hormone Support Supplement


#helpYOUgetGAINS 
Twitter: @helpYOUgetGAINS

That's a serious claim. Only time will tell if it pans out. I took a look at the ingredients and it appears that they are amino acids that have been shown previously to increase growth hormone levels.

SeroVital™-hgh 2.9 g A, Proprietary Blend Containing: L-Lysine HCl, L-Arginine HCl, Oxo-Proline, N-Acetyl, L-Cysteine, L-Glutamine, Schizonepeta (aerial parts) powder

As with all of these supplements, I would say give it a shot and see how you react to it. I would not expect short-term results. You would have to be very consistent in diet, stress reduction, sleep and exercise to support a product like this.



I have pasted the study abstract below for your review. The presented at the Obesity Society’s prestigious 30th Annual Scientific Meeting.

Elevated Growth Hormone 120 Minutes Following a Single Low-Dose of Amino Acids in Healthy Subjects

Abstract:

Background
The use of amino acid supplements to provoke growth hormone (GH) secretion in athletes and entertainers now extends to the general public. Not only do they have a goal of building lean tissue and reducing fat, but also in improving skin quality and other rejuvenating qualities that they believe GH can provide. Despite increasing mainstream use, evidence for whether oral amino acids stimulate GH is not clear.


Methods:
This was a cross-over, placebo-controlled randomized study. 16 (12 males; 32±14 years; 26.4±5.0 kg/m2) healthy subjects had serum GH measured at baseline and 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after taking a single low dose proprietary amino acid supplement blend (SeroVital™) or placebo.


Results:
After 120 minutes, GH levels had increased 8-fold from baseline (0.17 to 1.33ng/ml) and were significantly higher than placebo (P=0.01). In addition, a significantly higher mean AUC was observed after taking the supplement [20.4 (95% CI: 19.9-21.0ng/ml) vs. 19.7 (95% CI: 18.7-20.6ng/ml); P=0.04].

Conclusions: Our results show that a single oral dose of these amino acids can significantly increase GH Levels after 120 minutes in healthy men and women. Whether these GH changes persist over a longer duration or have other positive effects is being further examined.
