 GHB

The world's most controversial supplement?

SPECIAL NOTICE
We do not sell GHB but remain committed to its scientific and clinical reports which helped to confirm that it is a safe and efficacious drug for the treatment of cataplexy, insomnia and narcolepsy. Perhaps that is why the USA that made all "the fuss" about GHB and had it removed from the nutrient market, has now approved GHB (as a schedule 3 drug) under the trade name of Xyrem ®.

STOP PRESS
Recent clinical trials have highlighted that a close (but legal) relation to GHB called Aminohydroxybutyric acid (also known as GABOB and Buxamin) is also a potent releaser of HGH, Prolactin and dopamine- in a similar way to GHB. However Aminohydroxybutyric does not induce sleep, nor strong mood elevating effects- which some claimed made GHB “addictive.” Aminohydroxybutyric is now available for purchase. Alternatively, for a milder alternative for stress and anxiety relief we suggest you see Gamalate B6 as it contains close derivatives to GHB. (You may also want to investigate Picamilone).

GHB (Gammahydroxybutrate or Sodium Oxybate) is a remarkable and diverse chemical found naturally in many cells of the human body.

At higher doses, GHB blocks the path of the neurotransmitter dopamine, but as the effects of GHB wear off there is a dopamine rush. This rush has been described as an aphrodisiac, as GHB creates a slight euphoric effect, (similar to mild alcohol intake). In both men and women GHB increases sexual desire and heightens climax. In men GHB increases the strength and endurance of the erection.

The use of GHB has been clinically shown to increase hGH levels by up to sixteen times baseline measurement within an hour, probably making GHB the most potent oral agonist of growth hormone. Too much GHB can place the user into a deep sleep, from which they cannot be woken for hours. But when used correctly GHB can improve libido, muscle mass, alcohol withdrawal and sleep. Only take GHB at night before bed, avoid any alcohol, and also AVOID use if you suffer from epilepsy (or other seizures), cardiovascular problems, severe hypertension or Cushing's disease. Also avoid if you are using CNS (central nervous system) depressants, such as Valium ®. Look at the chart to see a figure depicting the increase of HGH levels during sleep under the influence of GHB (compared to placebo).

Dosages are wide ranging depending upon sex, body-weight (less Kg body weight /less mg dosage) and hypersensitivity.

As an approximate guide they are as follows; alcohol withdrawal 50mg to 150mg three times daily; energy enhancement 250mg to 500mg as required; libido enhancement 400mg to 800mg before sex; sleep 800mg to 1500mg; hGH release 1000mg to 2500mg before bed.

Always build up doses slowly over days to find your requirement.

With regard to the sodium based GHB powder (Genetika ®), this should be mixed with juice and consumed on an empty stomach. Each level supplied 1ml spoon is equal to 350mg.

Caution: Be advised that as of January 2000 many countries have made GHB a controlled substance. They are Australia, Brunei, Canada, Finland, France, Italy, Japan, Norway, New Zealand, USA, South Africa, Sweden Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Most of these countries have also included the GHB precursors, salts and esters in their legislation.

Since so many countries have placed GHB in a controlled drug status and since Great Britain is expected to eventually follow suit in late 2002, IAS has now withdrawn GHB from the order form. Many countries have acted upon the World Health Organizations releases, which is turn have been copied from the US FDA and DEA press-releases. This action has been political and has very little to do with science. To learn the scientific facts and some of the reasons why GHB has been targeted as an evil-substance by the authorities we urge you to see the Product Questions and Answers section for further details and comments.

For a milder alternative for stress and anxiety relief we suggest you see Gamalate B6 ® as it contains close derivatives to GHB. You may also want to investigate Picamilone.
