Halloween’s Rx for the “Fountain of Youth!”

Are you familiar with HGH?
You know, “human growth hormone, aka the fountain of youth hormone.

It’s been in the news for the past 2 decades and it’s something that Hollywood
celebrities and professional athletes pay thousands of dollars for and if you’re
hoping to get ahold of it but can’t afford it, just save that $4 pumpkin that you
bought from the grocery store.

A pumpkin?
Well, actually the seeds.
According to researchers, eating a small amount of pumpkin seeds
(pepitas) each day can increase HGH levels by 95%.
So, add a few seeds to that pumpkin muffin recipe or bowl of oatmeal
or millet or toss some into a veggie and beef (or chicken) stir-fry.
And if you’re not a fan of pumpkin seeds, (pepitas) you can also do
the simple tips listed below to increase your HGH levels.

* Turn On Seinfeld-
Or Modern Family or Golden Girls reruns.
Laughing while viewing a sitcom or a stand-up special, (Dave Chappelle)
raises HGH levels by 82%. Anticipating and enjoying comedy sitcoms or
specials counters the psychological stress that can impair HGH production.

* Do Like The Japanese-
In some parts of Japan, green tea is the beverage many drink 2 to 4 times
a day and if you too, want to increase your youth hormones, start copying
the Japanese and enjoy a cup (or three) of green tea a day.
Green tea contains a powerful compound called (EGCG) and this compound
is absorbed more readily on an empty stomach, enhancing the amount
of (HGH) available to the body by 245%.

* Cover Up Your Feet-
You may have heard that people who sleep with their socks on fall asleep
faster and stay asleep longer, and thanks to new research, getting to sleep faster
and staying asleep also increases your HGH hormones.
So, next time there’s an argument about the temperature in the room, just
ignore the other person and don a pair of toasty socks, you’ll not only get
warmer, enjoy deeper sleep, but get younger as well.
