chemicals or no, cow's milk is for baby cows...but neither the dairy  
industry nor Monsanto will tell you that...

Don,

This conversation has many elements of doubt as you can  imagine.  One of the 
men in our Men's group is a farm animal vet and a  farmer's accountant.  His 
recent comments in similar discussions assert  that there are by-products of 
bgh in milk but have not been proven to his  satisfaction that they are either 
harmful or harmless.

My concern is  that there are many countries outside the influence of 
Monsanto that prohibit  such stimulants in their dairy products. That makes me 
uncomfortable to assume  that just because a similar molecule, namely insulin, is 
degraded in the  digestive tract and is not given to diabetic patients orally 
without  considerable protection of the molecules, it does not mean that insulin 
can be  ingested directly without some harm to a person who is not diabetic.  
 There is much research going on now to find an oral form of insulin such as  
incorporation in nanoparticles and that some studies on rats indicate that  
insulin absorbed through the gastrointestinal  tract is more effective than 
injections or inhalations.  But it is  well known that insulin given to a healthy 
person is very dangerous.   Aside from being a rather ridiculous idea, no 
doctor that I know of would ever  suggest to a patient that it is OK to ingest 
insulin.  Why would anyone  recommend ingesting IGF1?

The terminology used for describing the  results of ingested insulin as 
"readily degraded" does not imply completely  destroyed.  Therefore, until some 
organization not funded by nor manged  by such corporations as Monsanto do some 
fundamental research on the  properties of ingested IGF1, I will opt to buy 
"Farmer Certified rBGH FREE"  milk  If you or any one else can prove to me, 
scientifically, that there  is no effect of IGF1 beyond the absolute safety which 
the Monsanto claims from  their subsidized experts, then I will buy into your 
argument.  Show me  the objective research.

George,

When I see something as blatantly wrong as  suggesting that an ingested 
protein, akin to insulin, is dangerous when  ingested, that makes me suspicious of 
the other data about which I know  little, like the pus, antibiotics, 
("quiet-test), etc.  I am not an  apologist for the FDA or Monsanto.  I am just 
questioning the  veracity of this information you are passing on, because I know a 
part of it  to be absolutely false.

Dear Don,  
Thanks for the update on lgf- 101.  Since I don't use dairy the  point is 
moot for me, but if I did, I don't think I'd like an increase of  pus in my milk 
at the least.  I'm also a bit suspicious of what comes  out later in such 
studies and why Monsanto puts the "quitetest" on such  info. The USFDA does appear 
to have a grand bit of influence from the drug  makers, having had several 
friends and relatives negatively effected by some  of the meds hailed as saviors 
and later pulled off the market.  I  remember reading similar papers written 
by scientists explaining the  harmlessness or limits and even touting the 
virtues of various drugs or  substances, which later turned out to be the reverse. 
 I would really  recommend the reading of the China Study.  No offense  
intended.

George, George,  George,
 
This igf-1, insulin like growth factor, is a protein which is  digested in 
the gut and has no biologic effect on the consumer when taken  by mouth.  You 
must know that diabetics that must take insulin,  require injections, because, 
like its cousin ilg-1, it is digested like  any other protein and has no effect 
if taken orally.  This  concern about the ill effects of the igf-1 in milk 
does not seem credible  to me.

This may help:

Igf-1 101 
 
____________________________________
IGF1, also known as somatomedin C, is  polypeptide hormone about the same 
size as insulin. It is produced  predominantly in the liver in response to growth 
hormone (GH) release from  the pituitary gland. Many of the growth promoting 
effects of GH are due to  its ability to release IGF1 from the liver. The 
conversion ratio of GH to  IGF1 varies greatly in different individuals but most 
external sources of  GH convert around 4-6mcg of IGF per one I.U. of GH. IGF-1 
acts on several  different tissues to enhance growth. IGF1 belongs in the 
'superfamily' of  substances known as 'growth factors,' along with epidermal 
(skin),  transforming; platelet derived fibroblast, nerve, and ciliary neurotrophic 
 growth factors. None of the other factors have any bearing on exoskeletal  
tissue incidentally however These agents all have in common the ability to  
stimulate cell division, known as mitogenesis, and cell differentiation.  Meaning 
That In the case of IGF1 which does act on muscle tissue it will  initie the 
growth of new muscle fibers, and subsequently new receptors for  testosterone. 
Users have unanimously concluded that it enhances cycles of  steroids 
significantly. They also seem to be adamant about its ability to  reduce fat and 
improve vascularity a great deal. 
The IGF1 Hype  
There is a considerable amount of hype surrounding IGF1. Every one is  
blaming the distended bellies of modern Bodybuilders on it. Also the  freaky 
proportions that old bodybuilders that have been around for years  are starting to 
attain. Anti-aging proponents are touting it as the  miracle cure for every 
thing from Parkinson's disease to Alzheimer's. And  the medical community has 
published numerous articles on it for its  ability to cause cancer, diabetes and 
gigantism. While at the same time  performing documented experiments on 
thousands of patients of muscle  wasting diseases. And reporting significant 
turnabouts in there  conditions. So what is a guy to think about IGF1 as far as 
athletic  enhancement is concerned? Well first of all you need to know that most  
experiments conducted with IGF1 do not list the type of IGF used. I have  
written Dr. Robert Saline of the Swedish rejuvenation institute on several  
occasions and we have had in-depth discussions on the subject of IGF1 for  physical 
appearance enhancement. Hfeels it would be unethical to prescribe  IGF1 to a 
bodybuilder to increase muscle mass simply due to the fact that  IGF1 has valid 
applications in the medical community, (Like I could give a  rats ass about 
"ethical"). He can not argue that it is extremely effective  as a promoter of 
muscle growth far beyond what androgens (steroids) alone  can offer. Well 
fortunately in America IGF1 is not a drug (yet) and the  FDA has no control over it 
as of now. This will change in the very near  future however, Im absolutely 
sure of it. 
How to use IGF1 
Assuming  that you have acquired legitimate IGF1 (R3) long chain, That's IGF1 
with  the binding protein added. You should take dosages ranging from 60mcg 
up  to 120mcg per day in divided doses. One injection in the morning and again  
at bed time. Never exceed 120mcg in one day. IGF1 can cause serious  
gastrointestinal problems such as tumors intestinal swelling diarrhea and  vomiting. 
Most IGF1 comes in a concentration of 1000mcg per ML or CC so it  makes it easy 
to measure in an insulin syringe. 10 IU on the syringe is  100mcg. Do the 
math. 
IGF + Insulin 
If you plan on doing IGF1 with  Insulin, listen closely IGF1 is not that 
expensive, sure you can get away  with using less by including insulin in the 
stack, but IGF1 and Insulin  together have a pro-insulin effect on your blood 
sugar balance. It can  enhance the chances of a hypoglycemic episode ten fold. I 
would recommend  against it for any one not ABSOLUTLY comfortable with insulin 
or IGF1.  
Here is how insulin and IGF1 work together. Igfbp3 is the binding  protein, 
which allows IGF1 to remain active in the system for a long  enough period of 
time to really work its magic. IGF1 by nature has a  half-life of less than 10 
minutes by its self. The molecule was so small  it would escape the blood 
stream very rapidly. This was the reason IGF1  was so "underground". It took very 
frequent injections at high dosages to  achieve even minimal results. Aside 
from this reconstituting the compound  required a degree in biochemistry. This 
short acting version was the only  IGF1 known until recently IGF1 would have 
been administered in 100 mcg  dosages 4-6 times a day. That is a hell of a lot 
of IGF1. That explains a  lot of the distended bellies. Now with R3 long chain 
IGF1 and the Binding  protein IGFBP3 IGF1 will last up to 6 hours in the 
system. By binding IGF  to the IGFBP3 you make the molecule larger and it gets 
trapped in the  blood stream until the protein is broken down and the IGF molecule 
 escapes. You can furtr its life by combining Insulin with it, although I  
hear it is very risky. Insulin prevents the breakdown of IGFBP3 and leaves  the 
IGF1 molecule roaming free in the blood stream for longer periods of  time up 
to 12 hours as insulin levels return to normal IGFBP3 will begin  to break 
down and the IGF1 will escape from its bound protein IGFBP3 again  having a half 
life of less than 10 minutes. 
Insulin should be taken at  the normal dosage it is usually administered at 
minus 10% about 45 minutes  prior to the IGF1 infusion. Again let me remind you 
this can be deadly if  you don't know what you are doing. And of course do 
not use Insulin for  the nighttime injection of IGF1 by taking it in the morning 
you prolong  the IGF1's half life to 12 hours and then take a 6 hour 
injection, you  should be fine. Hell if you want to eat a big bowl of rice and drink  
another 100g of simple carbs 45 minutes before the bed time IGF1 infusion  you 
could spike insulin for at least a few hours of extended IGF1  activity. If 
your not going to be using insulin in the stack then go ahead  and do the same 
in the morning. 
What users report 
Users of IGF1  have reported various results but all along the same lines, It 
does not  appear to be dramatically less effective in any one individual (at 
least  not to the best of my knowledge). I have a good friend who had to stop  
taking IGF1 due to stomach illness that was completely unrelated But he to  
experienced good gains from it for the 2 weeks he was on it, his dosage  was 
120mcg per day. One hour after the first injection he went to the gym  and 
immediately told me about the uncontrollable pump he got from just one  set. 
That would indicate to me that he was experiencing some form of  cell 
volumization. The general consensus on IGF1 seems to be that its  benefits are as 
fallow: 
Increased Pump Pumps are reported to be so  severe that workouts are often 
cut short due to lack of ability to the  muscle through the full range of 
motion...ouch 
Gains retention is  increased if IGF is used in a cycle I am not sure why, 
but IGF1 seems to  make gains on a cycle stick with virtually no post cycle 
loss. Every  bodybuilder I've spoken with seems to think this for some reason. 
Most of  them use drugs like Anadrol or Dianabol with it because of the amount of 
 size attained with these drugs. The usual draw back to these drugs is that  
in most users there is a post cycle "crash" that occurs, so the reasoning  is 
to toss IGF1 into the stack and grow larger faster with out the post  cycle 
crash blues. 
Reverses testicular atrophy 
Testicles if  shrunken will return to "full swing" so to speak even in the 
middle of a  cycle. If not shrunken they will not shrink during the cycle. This 
may  explain partially why gains are kept after the cycle. 
Fatigue  
Users report feeling drained and tired all day. This seems to be one  of the 
negative side effects to IGF1, it will make you sleep longer and  you will 
require more sleep at night to feel rested for the morning. This  is common with 
high doses of HGH and exhibited in children, whose IGF1  levels are 
extraordinarily high. A child needs 4 hours more sleep than an  adult on average. This 
may be directly or indirectly related to IGF1  levels. 
Stiffness 
An almost arthritic feeling is commonly  associated with high levels of HGH, 
well IGF1 has the exact same property.  IGF1 will cause your hands, fingers 
and knuckles to ache this is one way  you can be sure you got real IGF1. 
IGF-1's Side effects 
Every  thing has a down side. To bake a cake ya gotta break an egg. IGF1 is 
no  exception. The drug used in larger quantity around the 100mcg+ range will  
cause headaches, occasional nausea and can contribute to low blood sugar  or 
hypoglycemia in some users. Although I have never heard of this first  hand I'm 
sure its true. 
IGF1 will attach its self to the lining of the  intestine and cause 
hypertrophy of the gut. Every thing IGF1 touches will  grow and you have a lot of 
receptors on the lining of the large intestine  and inner wall of the abdominal 
well. This is what causes the GH gut look.  You can easily avoid this by limiting 
your dosages and cycle lengths. IGF1  cycles should be kept to 4-6 weeks with 
4-6 weeks off in-between. IGF-1 is  considerably more powerful than HGH and 
you need to think of it along  those lines as far as dosing goes. We all know 
what too much HGH can do  over prolonged periods of usage. The Neanderthal look 
is definitely not  going to win any shows this year. I would recommend 80 mcg 
a day for 4  weeks at a time you should get good results from that for a 
while. I don't  know if you will need to up the dosage at any point, but I would 
think in  the case of IGF1 it wouldn't matter. If 80mcg doesn't do it for you, 
then  bump it up to 100 You should definitely feel it at this point If not  
suspect the IGF1 as beingake. Beyond 120 mcg per day your asking for  trouble, 
This compound demands as much respect as its sister amino  Insulin.

This might  interest those who are health conscious and use milk.  It's a  
statement by a former US FDA employee.  Hopefully this has not spread  to other 
countries.

A very  good book to read on food is The China Study (the most  Comprehensive

it on Amazon.
