Why not take spray or powder containing HGH rather than amino acids?

HGH is a prescription drug. If there is a significant amount of HGH in a dietary supplement it is no longer a supplement – it is a drug. As a drug it must meet FDA approval and then it can only be sold with prescription. As HGH is a big and complex hormone, it cannot be absorbed using sprays but has to be injected into the body. Furthermore, powders containing HGH will be broken down in our digestive system before it ever reaches the bloodstream. The FDA has determined that if there are less than 2001 nanograms (ng) of the HGH drug present in a supplement – it is NOT considered a drug. The theory is that in such small trace amounts, the drug has no impact so it is not classified as a drug.
