How to Control Your Metabolism by Thyroid & Growth Hormone

The hypothalamus releases the releasing hormone of growth hormones. It is also involved in temperature regulation, which explains the large effect of temperature on growth hormone levels. Heat and therefore sauna can increase the level of growth hormone release. Under high heat, blood vessels dilate, the heart stroke rate increases. Sauna for 20-30... See more

Arginine can increase the levels of growth hormone under low glucose levels. It also increases the dilation of blood vessels and with that blood flow. L-Citrulline is a precourser of arginine and has a larger effect on arginine levels.

Weight and endurance training below 60 to 75 minutes promote growth hormone release, higher than that cortisol levels go high enough to inhibit estrogen and testosterone pathways. Warm up well to increase the body temperature and cool down quickly after working out. Growth hormone during exercise spikes for woman in the first 30 minutes and for men... See more

A meditation practice achieving delta waves can increase the release of growth hormone.

Growth hormone releasing hormone comes from the brain and signals to the pituitary to release growth hormone, which signals to the cells in tissues to increase metabolism. Too high levels cause growth in all tissues, I.e. in the Heart, lungs,… It is released in the early part of slow wave sleep, when you have low levels of glucose. Delta waves trig... See more

Thyroid can increase the glucose uptake by various tissues especially muscles and bones, which increases bone mineral density (especially important for 30+).

Iodine can decrease the inflammatory IL6.

Selinium helps in the Production of thyroid hormone. Selinium is present in fish, Brazil nuts (much more than the rest), shellfish, ham, beef, turkey, chicken, cottage cheese, cottage, spinach. You should consume about 100-200 microgram of Selinium. Most people are not consuming enough. Very clean diets are probably too low in iodine. Plant rich di... See more

When the levels of a hormone are too high, the brain will stop to produce stimulating hormones to stop the Production. It can be supplemented through Kelp and seaweed.
