Crohn's DiseaseAmid various therapies and discussions on this inflammatory disease, some recent data suggest a genetic disposition. However, some research has been done, revealing symptoms eased with a combination of a high-protein diet and human growth hormone. Review current research and medical articles on Crohn’s disease and learn more about alternative approaches that may be a consideration for patients. Effects of Growth Hormone Secretion on Body Composition in Patients with Crohn’s Disease.pdf
This study states that
although serum GH levels
were similar in the two
groups, GH contributed
significantly to the
abdominal fat measurements.
These data show that GH has
an important role in
modulating visceral fat
distribution in patients
with Crohn's disease. Hormone Replacement Therapy Produced Net Harm, Consistent with the Observational Data.pdf
This article states that
women with or at high risk
of coronary heart disease
should not start HRT. There
is a risk that women without
coronary heart disease might
experience even greater net
harm from HRT. The late
benefit is necessarily
limited, as it cannot exceed
the event rate. The
mechanism of the early loss
is unknown; if it were
reduced proportionately less
than the late benefit,
considerable net harm could
result.
A Preliminary Study of Growth Hormone Therapy for Crohn's Disease.pdf
This preliminary study
concluded that growth
hormone may be a beneficial
treatment for patients with
Crohn's disease. What is Human Growth Hormone (hGH)?.pdf
Human growth hormone
combined with a high-protein
diet significantly eased the
symptoms of Crohn's Disease
in three-quarters of
patients with moderate to
severe cases, a study found.
