GH Diet: lose 4 kg in 30 days with growth hormone –

What do avocado and almond have to do with GH? They are rich in good fat and antioxidant substances and, therefore, are at the top of the growth hormone allied foods list. Responsible for the development of bones and tissues (nerves, skin and muscle fibers), GH is essential in childhood and adolescence, when it reaches peak production. In adulthood, it continues with noble functions: “It is very important for burning fat and preserving lean mass”, explains Amilton Macedo, a dermatologist specializing in orthomolecular practice for weight loss, in São Paulo. From the age of 25, however, levels begin to fall, reaching 1/3 of production by age 30, especially if you exaggerate in carbohydrates and are sedentary. The damage appears in the form of sagging and extra centimeters in the waist circumference. But it’s not hard to change that story: small adjustments to the menu can be enough to stimulate the hormone, which helps keep your body firm and in shape.

Our suggestion: follow the diet prepared by nutritionist Leandra Veneziani Freire, also from São Paulo. The menu combines moderate portions of carbohydrates (always the complex ones – that is, rich in fiber) with more elaborate portions of lean protein and good fat. ”The goal is to reduce the glycemic load of meals to keep levels of the hormone insulin in check. In excess in the body, it can interfere not only with the production but also with the action of GH”, says the nutritionist. What do you get with it? Oops, lose! At least 4 kilos in 30 days.
