 WHAT IS IGF-1 LR3?

IGF-1, an abbreviation for insulin growth factor 1, is crucial for children in their growth. Similar to insulin, the hormone is helpful in the development of children and has anabolic effects on adults, consisting of 70 amino acids in a single chain and it is primarily produced in the liver. GH (growth hormone) stimulates the production of IGF1, which is produced throughout a person’s lifetime, with the greatest levels of production occurring during adolescence.

For those who are deficient or don’t produce GH at normal levels, injections and other supplement forms of IGF1 are a valid solution for increasing those deficiencies.


IS IGF-1 SAFE?
IGF1 is safe if you are using it in an appropriate way as it is naturally releasing inside of our body and is produced by the liver. Therefore, it is important to ensure IGF1 is being produced by the liver at normal rates, and if not, it is common to inject it in order to keep it at a normal level.

As long as the IGF levels are within a normal range, most adults don’t have to use a supplement. However, for bodybuilders, people trying to lose weight, or those who are otherwise deficient, supplementing with IGF1 can help in achieving specific goals you’re trying to achieve.


WHAT IS THE PROPER DOSAGE AND FREQUENCY FOR INJECTING IGF-1?
It is advisable that not over 40 to 50 mcg of IGF1 be injected on a daily basis for men, and should cap off at 20 mcg for female users. A longer half-life means it shouldn’t be injected more than twice daily for those who are using the LR3 form.

The injections can be administered twice daily, administration can be done pre and post-workout. You can administer the IGF1 injection at any time of the day on non-training days. Last but not least, however, to note that you should try to inject at the same time each day if possible.

A typical dosage cycle of IGF1 will run between 2 to 12 weeks. For those who are new to injecting, starting at the 2-week mark with a lower dosage level is advisable. For bodybuilders or those who have been using IGF1 injections for longer periods of time, you could increase the dosage to make yourself feel comfortable.
