IGF-1 Level Optimization

Meaning

This practice centers on achieving circulating levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) within a specific, health-associated reference range, typically reflecting robust pituitary GH output and adequate hepatic responsiveness. Optimization is crucial as IGF-1 mediates many anabolic, anti-aging, and regenerative effects of the growth hormone axis. The goal is functional sufficiency without inducing proliferative risks.
