Boosts Growth Hormone Levels

Research has shown that naltrexone has the ability to boost growth hormone (GH) levels. This is a significant finding since GH plays an integral role in building and maintaining lean muscle mass, reducing body fat, speeding up metabolism, and other important functions.
1. In obese patients, 4 weeks of treatment with naltrexone at 50 mg/day increased blood concentrations of GH. [51]
2. In obese women, naltrexone augmented the production of GH. [53]
