You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Human Growth Hormone or HGH, is produced early in life by the pituitary gland and triggers complex growth patterns in the body. At about middle age the pituitary gland begins to slow its release of this hormone.

Most importantly HGH triggers the liver to secrete an important hormone called IGF-I which stimulates bone, muscle and other tissue growth.

Growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland — a pea-sized structure at the base of the brain — to fuel childhood growth and help maintain tissues and organs throughout life.
