Review
Summary |
This company has launched a product which is aimed at eliminating many of the age related issues which adults face as they age. They say their mission is to “provide creditable and timely integrative medical information to professionals and the general public through the creation of self help products including electronic and print publications, and selective and unique dietary supplements”.
HeightGrowth Plus is one of their products which is purported to be able to “enhance your anatomy”, as well as being able help adults regain “height”. As we know height related issues are fairly common in our society, as well as being linked to the aging process. There are many products on the market which make many outrageous claims regarding the abilities of their products. There are also products which can provide the promised results. We will thoroughly evaluate this product to see if it can deliver actual results.

 | Ingredients at a Glance |
|
There are no ingredients listed for this product. They do say that it is a proprietary blend of “natural herbs and minerals”. We believe that all manufacturers and retailers of nutritional supplements have a responsibility to consumers to disclose their formularies. When they fail to do so it does a great disservice to consumers and they fail to take into account consumers buying savvy.
It is not just an issue of consumers having a right to know, but it is also a safety issue, because although we believe for the most part that holistic supplements are safe, there have been some cases of individuals having some side effects associated with some ingredients. For this reason we believe that consumers need to know what is in whatever supplement they choose to take to address their anti-aging issues.

 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
As mentioned above, there are no ingredients listed for this product; although they do allude to vitamins and minerals being in this products formulary. Usually when holistic supplements use minerals to boost HGH production they will use amino acids to attempt to accomplish this result, because they are rather plentiful and inexpensive. They also use them because they are relatively well known among consumers. However, they are a rather substandard method of boosting HGH production in the human body. They have not been proven to be able to effectively do this in all users; although they may be able to create a nominal boost it is not enough to make a dent in most users aging issues.
We have seen much better results created by products which incorporate Real HGHR into their formularies. Real HGHR is actual HGH, which has been shown to have a profound impact on increasing the pituitary glands ability to produce HGH; which is the key to helping the body effectively reduce signs of aging. HGH production decreases with age in the body, so this is why many products will try to address this issue; although as we can see not all methods are equal in terms of creating results.

 | Website |
|
We were glad to see that this website does try to educate consumers about the different systems in the human body, which many consumers may well find enlightening. This is important information to know when reviewing different anti-aging supplements. However, we would have rather have seen them include some research information regarding this products ability to create results. We would have liked to have been able to ascertain how this products ingredients work in the body, however, since they have failed to disclose formulary information that was impossible.
Nevertheless, we were glad to see that this website does post a testimonial section for consumer review. Many consumers look to testimonials to see if a product can create the promised results; often trusting more in the words of their peers than the hype posted on the website.

 | Positives |
|
• Consumers can order directly from the website
• Testimonial section posted
|
 | Negatives |
|
• No research posted
• Website fails to post formulary
• May not use Real HGHR

 | Final Thoughts |
|
Overall, we do not believe that HeightGrowth Plus can aggressively treat aging related issues in users. Like a multivitamin, it may well provide users with vitamins and minerals, which may increase their overall health, however, that does not mean that it can stave off the aging process. As noted earlier, this product has failed to disclose its formulary. This secrecy should in no way be seen as an indicator of its effectiveness, in fact it is just the reverse.
Most successful formulas which can really produce results do not hesitate to actively discuss the ingredients used in their products, because they know that this is a huge selling point. For instance, products which cause Real HGHR will highlight it, because they know many consumers seek a formulary that uses this ingredient. Nevertheless, this product is available directly thorough the website. A four month supply will cost $99.99. In our estimation, this is rather expensive given the fact that there is no way of ascertaining its effectiveness.
