Sports fans (especially baseball fans/cynics), check out the article on the top of this webpage. This website is very highly regarded, so its not some quack writer trying to stir the pot. There is conclusive evidence that HGH does NOT provide any benefit to athletes... I only wish the sports writers of America would read this. Some of the skepticism surrounding baseball player's performance would go away, methinks.

Really? Do you have any primary sources? I'm not aware of any studies that could conclusively demonstrate positive or negative effects of rHGH on human athletic performance. It probably doesn't have much of a benefit, although it may have some utility in events like body building (not much of a sport).Quote:

I've got what the article tells me... which seems to be pretty decent evidence.Quote:
