Re: MA (Mike Arnold) Labs Somatozine Log by MuscleAddiction

I love how God provides what we need...so I have been wanting to donate blood since I never have, and my work is sponsoring a Blood Drive here, so I now have an appointment for July 12th to donate double reds ������, and I am in the process of getting my doctor to prescribe massage therapy for my lower and mid back issues so I can pay using my FSA account...just need to pray it is approved.

Bloodwork soon to follow here...

Well God just gave me another daily surprise...my 2 bottles of Somatozine came today, these will run me into my competition...still waiting on my blood work results.

Re: MA (Mike Arnold) Labs Somatozine Log by MuscleAddiction

Well I got my blood work back, so for the basis of this supplement my IGF-1 levels are...

IGF-1
Insulin-Like Growth Factor I- 201 (67-205 ng/mL)

So I will let Mike chime in here but they are up...now I am in competition prep and running a few things, so other things are elevated too. I am going to drop my dosages down starting this week, as my test levels are up +3600, but some other things are concerning me. I am scheduled to donate blood on the 12th, so once I tweak a few things I am going to get more bloods done and really watch what is going on.

Hope this helps for all of you who want to try this product...it works!!!

I don't want to get into the details right now, let's just say I am going to drop some items and dosages down, get on my liver detox regimen today, and start being smarter as I let myself get carried away...I know better and just got stupid. Anyway, still going to compete just going to clean up things.

Thanks very much for doing this log MA. I was hoping you could answer a few questions I have.

Did you know what your IGF-1 level was before you started the MK-677?

Also, the high end of the normal range on your test, i.e.,205 ng/ml is very low. Even the limit of the high normal range for someone 55 or over is 290 ng/ml according to U. of Rochester.

Lastly, how would you compare the MK-677 with the real GH you have used?

Do you think the "liver support" supplements do much? I haven't seen too many studies proving their effectiveness and a lot of bro-scientists at the gym say they're a waste of time.

No I did not have them tested prior to the MK-677, guess that would have helped.

Those were my IGF-1 levels, not test...my test levels came back +3600.

As far as comparing real GH to MK-677, I got numbness and tingling from real GH @ 4iu daily, where with MK-677 I haven't really felt that.

As far as liver support supplements TUDCA + NAC has been researched and tested, there have been many studies on both, as well as Milk Thistle. I have been taking them religiously but like I said got a bit reckless with my blast and doses, so learning a hard lesson now.

Thanks for the response. Hope all is getting back in line.

And just to clarify my post, when I referred to "test" I was referring to your blood work not actual test

For reference, this is what the U. of Rochester has on its website as far as normal IGF-1 values (you recorded a 201):

IGF-1 measurements are adjusted for age because levels tend to decrease as you get older.

Results of IGF-1 are given in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). Normal ranges by age are:

182 to 780 ng/mL for ages 16 to 24


114 to 492 ng/mL for ages 25 to 39


90 to 360 ng/mL for ages 40 to 54


71 to 290 ng/mL for people 55 and older
