IGF-1 Surveillance

Meaning

The clinical practice of systematically monitoring and managing the circulating levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) to ensure they remain within an optimal, age-appropriate range for supporting tissue repair, metabolic health, and overall longevity. This surveillance is particularly critical when utilizing growth hormone-releasing peptides or other interventions aimed at modulating the somatotropic axis. Maintaining a healthy IGF-1 level is essential for balancing anabolic drive with long-term health risk management. The goal is to maximize regenerative benefits safely.
