Official title

Six Month Treatment of GHRH in the Elderly

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of a naturally occurring hormone, called Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH), on the muscle, bone and fat tissues of the body. GHRH stimulates the production of growth hormone (GH), which regulates the build up of many tissues in the body, including muscles and bones. Many elderly people have low levels of GH. The overall goal of this research is to determine the effectiveness of GHRH to raise levels of GH and improve these body tissues. The purpose of the tests is to measure how the body handles sugar, fat, and proteins. GH can affect your body's use of sugar, fat and proteins.
