WHAT COULD Gerovital DO FOR...
© GEROVITAL GH3 - WILL IT KEEP YOU YOUNGER LONGER?
(Herbert Bailey, Bantam Books, Paperback). 1980
Since it is a nutrient, the exact improvements are not predictable for any one person. It works at a cellular level and therefore the action is general rather than specific. The changes arising from Gerovital (GH3) with Procaine Hcl, are usually subtle. Individuals used to the dramatic effects of synthetic drugs may not notice the any difference day to day. In assessing the benefits, experience shows that it is preferable to look back over several months. Changes in physical and mental status then can be evaluated. Some users of the product report no benefits of any kind. This may be due to a lack of physical problems to begin with. In this case the nutrient qualities can be regarded as a prophylactic measure at best. Some users simply do not absorb or utilise the ingredients to the extent that health benefits can be realised.
1. HOW CAN GH3 INCREASE SEXUAL POTENCY?
Some researchers believe that decreased levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin lead to impotence.Serotonin is a substrate of MAO. Ideally, MAO metabolises the serotonin so it will not become too prominent. Rising levels of MAO, which may appear after age 45 thus, accompany falling levels of serotonin. GH3 has a demonstrated ability to inhibit excess MAO. Thus it may tend to normalise serotonin levels and restore potency. Estrogen and androgen production can be a factor in sexual characteristics and performance as well. Parhon, Aslan and Danila and Untea conducted studies in this area. They concluded that GH3 with procaine hydrochloride tends to increase deficient estrogen and androgen levels. It appears that this simulative effect only occurs where these factors are subnormal.
2. WILL GH3 AFFECT HERPES?
To date, there is noting that will eliminate herpes. However a relevant research study was conducted by J. Earle Officer of the University of Southern California. He showed that herpes I and herpes II viruses did not become active in the presence of GH3
3. WILL GH3 REDUCE CANCER RISK?
There is no definitive answer to this question. Studies by J Earl Officer also showed that the C-type (cancer producing) viruses did not become active during GH3 experiments. Dr Aslan reported a statistical decrease in the appearance of neoplasms in patient populations using Procaine hydrochloride GH3, long term.
4. WILL GH3 PREVENT HEART ATTACK OR STROKE?
The evidence remains inconclusive. Studies by Cohen and Ditman and by Aslan indicated a lowering of cholesterol levels in patients using GH3 The tendency for the product to normalise arterial pressure and heart rate also may play a role in preventing damage to the circulatory system. At the National Congress of Professors in Italy, 1974 , the assembled scientists praised GH3`s effectiveness against the accumulation of blood clots and cholesterol. They also agreed that it does not pose any health risks. Soon after beginning to take GH3 some people show an increase in cholesterol. Importantly, this level is measured in the blood. A temporary rise may indicate a mobilisation of the arterial deposits.
5. DOES GH3 WITH PROCAINE HAVE ANY EFFECT ON ALLERGIES?
The body's immune system responds defensively to the presence of various substances from the environment. However, it may become sensitised to one of these antigens and over react. The normal protective response can get out of hand. The chemical consequences of this natural function gone awry may become an even larger problem. Histamine output increases and this may create many of the classic symptoms of an allergic reaction. Additionally, stress may leave the body open to an allergic reaction when the adrenal glands must respond more often. This can lead to a depletion of vital chemical defences. GH3 may moderate these problems in several ways: (1) Researchers Ghali, Cohen and Aslan assert that GH3 is an anti-histamic (44) (2) Bucci has demonstrated that it moderates the adrenal response. (3) Acetylcholine is a counterpart of adrenaline. Since DEAE is a precursor to acetylcholine , it may promote a parasympathetic response during times of stress.
6. HOW DOES GH3 MAKE HAIR REGROW AND RECOLOUR?
There is certainly ample scientific evidence that GH3 may help recolor and regrow hair! Once again, the pharmacological action is not clearly understood. It is known that endocrine imbalances reduced circulation can lead to the weakening and thinning of hair. Poor nutrition or nutrition inadequately communicated to the scalp may result in poor hair quality. As already documented, GH3 reportedly helps restore endocrine balance. Gerovital improves circulation to all parts of the body through vasodilatation. PABA also is believed effective in improving hair quality. The ionised and stabilised nature of GH3 may allow the PABA to perform even more effectively. The regrowing and recoloring of hair does not occur at all in some people. Even when it does, several years may pass before appreciable results are obtained. Nutrient or endocrine deficiencies may not be the cause in some instances of poor hair quality or hair loss. In these cases GH3 Gerovital may not help.
7. WILL GH3 FORTIFY THE BODY AGAINST COMMON ILLNESS?
Dr. Aslan and her associates noted that 38% of subjects using GH3 showed a reduction in absenteeism from work. A two year study by Untea and Bercu revealed that 76% of labourers doing piece work increased their incomes during the study if they were on Gerovital GH3 with procaine HCl. These same workers experienced better concentration on the job and an absence of fatigue. As mentioned earlier, a serious influenza epidemic swept through Europe during one of the Romanian studies. Dr. Aslan reported a mortality rate of 3.2% in patients on GH3 In the untreated group, the mortality rate was 13.9%. An American report noted similar results 3.3% mortality was found among GH3 users, while the untreated group showed a 12.0% rate.
8. WHAT IS THE ROLE OF MAO IN DEPRESSION? CAN GH3 CORRECT IT?
The neurotransmitters serotonin and noreprinephrine apparently are needed for proper neural responses. Most researchers believe that deficient levels result in depressive syndromes. This soon leads to fatigue pessimism, withdrawal and inadequate functioning. MAO is believed to metabolise these neurotransmitters so they will not become too prominent. If they were, it might result in excess neural firing and "manic" behaviour. Conversely, if MAO builds up to a higher level, there may be a deficit of neurotransmitters as the MAO does its job too well. GH3`s reported capacity to balance MAO action may reduce the problem. In contrast to many MAO inhibitors (where a tyramine-restricted diet is needed) Gerovital GH3 acts as a reversible inhibitor of MAO. It isolates the MAO from the neurotransmitters and thus prevents there over metabolisation. Under stress or in the presence of tyramine, the procaine reverses this action so the MAO can perform its other necessary functions.
9. HOW DOES OSTEOPOROSIS RESPOND TO GH3?
Osteoporosis is primarily caused by a breakdown of bone structure and a loss of calcified tissue. It generally advances with age and therefore usually is identified with geriatric patients. However NASA physicians reported that space travellers in the weightless condition showed an alarming advance of osteoporosis. GH3 treated patients have shown a significant reduction in osteoporosis. Results have been reported both in preventing and reversing it Gerovital GH3 apparently encourages the body to retain calcium. Further, researchers report that over a period of several years remineralization of the whole skeleton can occur. A general thickening of the bones has been noted in patients treated with GH3 as well. Gerovital GH3 may improve osteoporosis by its stimulation of the estrogens and androgens as previously documented. These two hormones currently are used as treatments for the condition.
10. CAN Gerovital H3 (GH3) DO ANYTHING FOR SICKLE-CELL ANAEMIA?
Researchers in one laboratory study showed that, when exposed to procaine, sickled cells would re-oxygenate. They concluded that procaine in GH3 competes with calcium for membrane binding sites. Calcium is believed largely responsible for the brittle form of haemoglobin. This was a laboratory study only. However, the investigators took the position that procaine held promise for controlling sickle-cell deformity.
11. WHAT EFFECT DOES GH3 HAVE ON BLOOD SUGAR ABNORMALITIES?
There is no extensive data on the subject. One study showed easier management of blood sugar level in diabetics using GH3 as an adjunct to insulin. It also suggested that blood sugar levels tended to become normal in cases where the values were aberrated slightly.
12. WILL GH3 HELP REDUCE STRESS?
GH3 exhibits anti-adrenergic properties and functions as a muscle relaxant. Both these factors may provide greater resistance to stress. As already explained, DEAE participates in the production of acetylcholine, the counterpart of adrenaline. GH3 facilitates both the elimination of toxins and the inhibition of excess MAO. Researchers consider these factors aspects of stress reduction as well.
13. DOES GH3 HELP MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS PATIENTS?
Dr. Gohbrandt, a West German surgeon, conducted a clinical trial with 87 multiple sclerosis patients. The GH3 treated subjects showed "remarkable improvement" No extensive clinical investigation has been undertaken in this area.
14. WHAT WILL GH3 DO FOR BODY WEIGHT?
Once again, GH3 may act as a balancing factor. Clearly patients in a state of degeneration may fail to maintain a minimum safe body weight. Some geriatric patients, for example gradually "waste" away as they lose lean tissue. Studies demonstrate that the anabolic properties of GH3 can promote weight gain. At the same time, a slow metabolic rate can result in the failure to catabolize undesired body fat. Clinical inquiry suggests that Gerovital H3 increases a deficient basal metabolic rate.
15. HOW DOES GH3 AFFECT THE SKIN?
Medical research indicates that GH3 may contribute to the disappearance of age spots and wrinkles. GH3 may improve skin elasticity and promote faster healing. These changes may result largely from improved circulation to the skin surface. Many users of GH3 are reported to have that "youthful" appearance which belies their chronological age. These observations are not necessarily far-fetched. We can assume that first impressions of ageing arise primarily from the appearance of the hair and skin. Both these surface measures of age seem positively affected by GH3. Scientific reports as a whole suggests that the Gerovital (GH3) may prolong and to some extent restore the skin quality.
16. WILL GH3 EXTEND LIFE?
The most significant studies on increased life span were conducted by Professor Berger in France and by Richard Hochschild of Corona del Mar, California. They undertook independent studies. Their results demonstrated that male animals lived 30% longer than the controls. Interestingly, extension of lifespan in the females was much less. Dr. Aslan`s longitudinal studies showed a reduction in mortality rate in humans as well. It is important to remember that the human form has a limited lifespan potential. Only so many generations of body cells can be reproduced. The human system is designed to survive approximately 120 years.
After that, the cells rapidly lose their reproductive capacity. To whatever extent someone lives less than this may be the result of stress, accidents or poor overall health management. Dr. Aslan did not claim that GH3 makes possible the extension of life beyond this limit, she rather believed that it may be possible for people to "die young" but at an advanced age. The goal is to reach an extended age without the degenerative problems, which too often detract from the quality of life.
17. IS IT POSSIBLE TO OVERDOSE ON GH3?
Dr. Bernard Wagner of Columbia University conducted studies on Gero vital H3 (GH3). He gave subjects more than 60 times the normal equivalent dosage of GH3 for more than four months. He determined that there is no build up of procaine in the cells. In this sense, the procaine acts no differently than other water soluble B-vitamins. Dr. Wagner and most other investigations agree that GH3 acts on sites in the body in a benign fashion. It dose not damage tissues or alter the basic structure of the organism.
18. DOES GH3 CURE HEALTH PROBLEMS?
The word cure is improper because we are discussing a nutrient. Dr. Aslan points out that the real value of GH3 is that it can be used nutritionally to reinforce specific medical treatments of health programs. Gerovital also may provide a measure of protection against health problems which otherwise would develop.
19. IS GH3 HABIT FORMING?
Some users report strong attachments to Gerovital H3 (GH3) health benefits. However, they cannot become physically dependent on it. Pharmacological investigation by Goodman and Gilman concludes procaine HCl in GH3 is incapable of causing addiction.
20. WHY ARE SULFONAMIDES AND NIACIN CONTRAINDICATED FOR GH3?
Both sulpha drugs and straight niacin (not niacin as part of a multi-vitamin) can neutralise the effects of the procaine. However GH3 does not interact with them in a harmful manner. PABA is antagonistic to sulphonamides and therefore will cause a mutual decrease in effectiveness. Niacin dilates the blood vessels to such an extent that procaine is forced quickly out of the system.
21. CAN GH3 PROMOTE DETOXIFICATION?
The mild toxins, which accumulate in the body from food and water, may be purged on GH3 This detoxification resembles that experienced on a sudden change of nutritional intake, fasting or a vitamin program. Such a "healing crisis" usually features headache, mild nausea or flu like symptoms. Somewhat less that 20% of GH3 users experience these reactions.
22. WHY IS A RESTING PERIOD RECOMMENDED EACH MONTH?
A brief resting period, where no GH3 is taken, is recommended for GH3 Taking any vitamins without a break may eventuate in decreased responsiveness on the part of the body. Stopping Gerovital for a few days each month allows the cells time to recover their sensitivity.
23. WHY HAS THE ISSUE OF GH3 BEEN OBSCURED?
As briefly touched upon previously GH3 probably has not been obscured as much as neglected. An allopathically oriented medical establishment logically would suppress an inexpensive vitamin, which appears to improve a large range of physical ills. However, the facts do not substantiate this assumption. Actually, many physicians support GH3 and make it available to their patients. They believe that GH3 may do some good, while it can`t do any harm.
The thousands of investigations on GH3 generally do not appear in the major medical journals in America. On the contrary, reports suggesting low efficacy have received more press. Importantly, 85% of research on GH3 backs up DR Aslan`s original claims. 100% of studies using the true formulation resulted in conclusions parallel to those of Dr. Aslan's Gerovital.
The state of the art in medicine, as in many fields, develops through the flow of information in trade journals. If a certain advance does not appear, then the practitioners of the field cannot use it. In the medical field, failure to practice the state of the art may result in lawsuits and the lifting of one`s licence. In similar fashion, a licenced person who does not represent the state of the art stands above reproach.
Another distressing factor is the emphasis on patentable products. Pharmaceutical representatives encourage the physician to be "up-to-date". These primary sources of information lean toward profitable patent drugs. Expensive studies are a bad investment if a product such as GH3 is not patenable. Lacking approval as a drug leaves Gerovital with less glamour in the medical mind. It is then only what it is - a simple nutrient.
TESTIMONIALS
GEROVITAL H3 (GH3) has been established as possibly the most exciting remedial discovery for mankind, since the principles of hygiene were reluctantly accepted by the medical profession in the 19th century.
A UK Doctor says about GH3 - "I am a consultant in the National Health Service, currently practising in Hampshire. I have recommended Gerovital H3 (GH3) to various adult patients, colleagues and friends, as well as taking product self. Ignoring the wealth of research material available, I myself have observed what I believe to be major improvements in arthritic and other physically degenerative problems, and possibly even more significantly, in depressive syndromes. I am aware that Gerovital - H3 (GH3) is a MAO ( mono-amino oxidase ) inhibitor, and as such gradually allows the body to produce some MAO after a period, unlike all other MAO blockers used in treating depression which have inherent side-effects, My own observations lead me to believe that Gerovital H3 (GH3) has no side-effects. I have no hesitation in recommending this product to the public generally!" (Dr. J. MB., Ch.B Hampshire)
An 85 year old lady says - "I have been taking Gerovital - H3 for the past 18 months and can only describe them as marvellous. How at the age of 85 my hair is beginning to thicken up and regain its fair colouring. My hairdresser remarked 6 months ago that if she didn't think it was impossible, she would say my hair had changed texture & become stronger - so it had. I am feeling 20 years than my actual age and am able to enjoy life in its entirety. This I put down to the benefits I derive from the tablets. I hope to be able to continue with them all my life. yours in all truth." (Mrs Molly S. Cheltenham Gloucestershire.) PS. I met Molly in April 96, she was very bubbly and active using a new Word Processor and working on a cross stitch sampler.
A US company president says about GH3 - "When first introduced to the product called Gerovital - H3 (GH3) , I was very sceptical as I have used other products before, and all have failed. After a person gets "burned" a few times, one just gives up. In meeting with you and your staff, my sixth sense was activated by the strength of your confidence in the product , and purchased a 3 month trial of GH3 to test on my mother who has a severe case of Arthritis in her hands, and for myself for undue stress placed upon me as President of a corporation.
It was less than a week, when my mother informed me that not only has the pain left her hands, but she can now thread a needle and knot it. My mother is 84 and she has not threaded or knotted a needle for the past 8 years. She has stopped taking Tynol, Ben Gay and Heat, as she does not need them any longer. She also say's that she can even walk better, and I have been a witness to all improvements. Also the ringing in her ears have also reduced with GH3 - Gerovital.
My experiences have been astronomical, as I am more cool headed, my memory has improved, and I feel better, quite better than ever before. The best is, I have had an ear infection for the past 6 months, and have seen 3 different physicians. Wearing an hearing aid was said to have caused some of the problems. I have been on numerous drugs, prescribed by each physicians, and have spent well in excess of $500 for office visits and drugs, and the problem remained since last week. Each can be verified by receipts and empty drug bottles.
When Gerovital H3 (GH3) arrived in December, I took 2 pills a day for about 2 weeks and felt improvements, but had to stop as new drugs were issued to me by my physician. My ear was draining constantly. I carried cotton swabs with me in my suit coat so as to wipe the liquids that drained from the ear. Attending meeting, talking on the telephone and persuing my selling career was a great hardship on me, as the liquids draining would wipe out the sounds of the person I was talking to. Two weeks ago, after leaving the doctors office with a new prescription, I decided to put Gerovital H3 (GH3) to work, as I have tried everything else and with no profound results.
I took two GH3 tablets instead of one each time. The second day, my ear has stopped draining and the fullness around the ear lobe has left. The sounds of peoples voices are no longer muffled, and I can speak on the phone quite easily. I carry no more cotton swabs. I can't believe it, yet I am a walking specimen of what Gerovital H3 (GH3) has done for me. I am more than happy with the results of Gerovital GH3 and each day, I find new improvements taking place." (G.M. Kansas City, USA)
A young girl with MS says - "I feel I must write to an tell you how my life has changed since taking Gerovital H3 (GH3). I was struck down by Multiple Sclerosis at the age of 18 six years ago. My body was deteriorating month by month, my brain would not function properly, my legs often collapsed underneath me and when I opened my mouth to speak it didn't make sense. I was a really nasty person to live with. I started taking Gerovital GH3 on the 9th of February and within two weeks began to feel better. With GH3 my thinking became clearer, my legs have not given way since then and I am ahead of my studies. I go to parties and my Mother tells me I am an angel to live with, in fact it's like being reborn. Thank you for bringing me back to live a normal life." ( Anna W. Hammersmith London.)
Mother of 14 year old with low blood sugar says - "Our 14 year old daughter is using Gerovital - H3 (GH3) with wonderful results. She got sick last fall, lost weight, didn't have any appetite and felt weak. Till Christmas the Doctor told us she should quit school. All they could find wrong was (low blood sugar). We tried everything we knew, vitamins, tonics, chiropractor treatments and just everything we could think of, Still she made very little improvement , she looked very sick and pale. In March we discovered Gerovital - H3 (GH3) so we started her on that, she made a big improvement in just a few days and is improving since. Her appetite got better and she is gaining weight. In just 6 weeks her low blood sugar was back to normal. After using GH3 for 2 months she is doing any kind of hard work. Thanks to Dr. Aslan GH3."
