GH Glucose

[Alaskan Cannon]

Hey juicy gals and pals. Quick question, I've been running 2-4 ui's of GH a day for a little over a month now. Recent labs show a glucose of 100 after pounding my face full of food. I expected glucose to raise with GH not lower my normal. My normal is around 160/180 after a fat meal. Thoughts? Thank you.

Is this after multiple readings?

 

[Alaskan Cannon]

Yes, noticed it gradually go down at home over the weeks, then got labs and it was even lower.

Do you take Berberine or metformin?

N

Do you take Berberine or metformin?

Nope

Damn, not really sure how to troubleshoot that one. My blood glucose has risen higher fasted after starting GH

Exactly my thoughts. Should of went the other direction. Would hate having to stop because of this. My only other thought would be that it isn't GH that I'm taking. I order from a pretty reliable source here though.

Take readings every hour after you eat. Depending on the food you eat, the glucose spike won’t be much like a spike at all and instead more like a wave slowly rising and falling. Also, I’d add that having glucose of 160-180 isn’t fucking good lol you likely have some level of insulin resistance.

Kinda did this recently as well. Will give it another go and try every other hr. Insulin resistant would mean higher glucose though right?

Haha ya I know it's on the higher side but usually it doesn't hold there for long. Plus that's stuffing my face to the max to put on some size haha.

If you want to know for sure, look up glucose tolerance test and do the same test at home. Also a glucose meter has a wide range at what the reading will be, you should have a teat solution for your meter and you can look on the solution for its range . it's usually 20 or so.

Also depending on what you ate can have a huge impact on your level rate rising after eating. What type of carbs and protein.

Most of my protein comes from 90 percent lean ground beef and most of my carbs come from white rice.

Upon further research, I found that people who have low IGF-1, after starting GH it will actually lower glucose initially.

What time of the day are you taking your growth?

FYI, A serving of white rice has almost the same effect as eating pure table sugar due to its glycemic index and will spike Glucose.

Interesting since GH makes you more insulin resistant.

You might want to test every 15 minutes or get a CGM.

What time of the day are you taking your growth?

First thing in the morning and evening 1hr before I lift.

what else are you running?

what else are you running?

Was running Test cyp 1 gram a wk and Anavar 75mg a day. Dropped the Anavar and now just running test and gh.

I would’ve pounded some gummy bears to see what happened. Sounds like a good side effect to me though.

Little secret, I put ice cream in my protein shakes haha
