Until recently, the drug was not permitted in the United States. Now the state of Nevada is allowing GH3 therapy. It has often been said that if our bodies could maintain homeostasis indefinitely, we might be immortal.
Homeostasis is the chemical equilibrium of the body.
The hypothalamus is very much involved in this aspect of biochemistry. Homeostasis regulates internal body temperature, blood pressure, perspiration rate, heart-pulse rate, blood sugar, hunger, thirst, sleeping and waking cycles, and almost every activity within the physical system. It also preserves the delicate balance between various enzymes, amines, and hormones in the body. MAO is an enzyme that breaks down various amines that are formed in the body. Some of these amines, tyramine, for instance, are by-products of certain foods.
