I'm not sure. I'm not a doctor for the record. But that would be the angle I expect them to take. The Gury institute treats for it and CFS could be a result of low Growth Hormones in the body. I still think it is skirting the law but possibly one that would result in a warning rather than jail time.
The three reasons HGH can be prescribed in adults are:
- Short bowel syndrome, a condition in which nutrients are not properly absorbed due to severe intestinal disease or the surgical removal of a large portion of the small intestine
- HGH deficiency due to rare pituitary tumors or their treatment
- Muscle-wasting disease associated with HIV/AIDS
Dr. Alan Rogol (a leading US authority in the subject) stated that there would never be a reason to prescribe HGH at an anti-aging clinic.
In Rogol’s opinion, there would “never” be reason to seek a prescription of growth hormone from an anti-aging clinic for any of those conditions. “The growth hormone deficiency would be an endocrinologist who takes care of adults,” he said. “The HIV wasting would be an infectious disease clinic, perhaps a gastroenterology clinic. And the short gut certainly be gastroenterology, gut surgery-type clinics. They would not be anti-aging clinics.”
