Maxi Hgh An Hgh Supplement Review

October 14th, 2008 · 46 Comments

Maxi-HGH by Food Science of Vermont is a refreshingly straight forward product.  Just a simple blend of a large dosage of straight amino acids.  There are no other ingredients.  We have also seen this product labeled as being made by DaVinci Laboratories of Vermont.

The ingredients please…

L-Glutamine 6000 mg
L-Arginine 1000 mg
L-Ornthine HCL1000 mg
L-Lysine 1250 mg
Glycine 1000 mg

Glutamine is the main event here and it is present in a more than sufficient dosage to stimulate growth hormone release. The supporting group of amino acids is there in large enough dosages to work by themselves but they are a decent supporting cast.  Besides you still get a much larger dosage than with scam products like Genf20 or GHR1000.

The supplement manufacturer says that this hgh releasing powder should be taken with juice or water.  Juice could interfere with proper absorption in the stomach.  So we suggest just using straight water.  The only problem is that there does not appear to be any flavoring so it might not taste that great. 

Powders are able to provide a much larger dosage for a more reasonable price than capsules but with capsules you have no taste issues.

We plan on buying some and will experiment to see what can be done about the taste issue.

I love seeing a vitamin supplement manufacturer who puts the exact ingredients on the label and does not resort to the proprietary blend ploy.

This growth hormone releaser has a list price of $59.95 but it is easily available through the magic of internet discounters for around $30. A good buy.

This would be a good product to supplement one of the more complete products during a second cycle.

Maxi-HGH receives an HGH product review rating of  B-

    Thanks for the review. Terrific site.
    I recommend taking with a protein powder to
    get around the taste issue. Would that also inhibit absorbtion? I will continue to read your reviews of other products and refer folks to your site.

  • 2 hgh truths // Jan 15, 2009 at 12:44 pm

    Duane C,

    Your welcome and thank-you.

    The protein powder will totally wipe out the uptake of the straight amino acids as it applies to growth hormone release.

    I would be experimenting with taking it with some kind of non-sugar based drink mix like a Crystal Light … I might try sweetening with pure agave syrup which has the lowest glycemic index of any natural sweetner.

    Generally, I just mix this kind of thing with the smallest amount of water possible and throw it down with a larger amount of water available as a chaser – palate cleanser.

    I’m ordering MHP’s Secretagogue Gold and will continue to carry Maxi-Hgh. I have a lot to learn. Question? To act as an HGH secretagogue should the products only be taken at night before sleep, or can you take before or after exercise without any other supplements and still be effective? Out of the realm of hgh review, I know. Haven’t found the answer through research yet.

  • 4 hgh truths // Jan 16, 2009 at 5:42 pm

    Duane C,

    The absolutely best time is before sleep on an empty stomach. Followed by first thing in the morning. Followed by before exercise on an empty stomach. Followed by after exercise on an empty stomach.

    Hi ,, is it possible to get higher when i use HGH
    i am 43 years old,, do you think is it useful to
    use this product,,,
    Regards

  • 6 JEN // Jan 27, 2009 at 8:08 am

    I am wondering about GHR made by BIE Health Products; Global Health Products, is also on the bottle. They say take 4 pills each containing:

    Anterior Pituitary (porcine) or (bovine)…20mg
    Hypothalamus …5mg
    Amino acid blend…300mg
    (essential amino acids)
    Lysine, Histidine, Arginine, Aspartic acid, Therinine, Serine, Glutamic acid, Leucine, Phenylalanin, Proline, Glycine, Alanine, Cystine, Valine, Methionine, Isoleucine, Tyrosine.

    Phylosterol Complex… 10mg
    Beta sitosterol, Campesterol, Stigmasterol.

    Soy Phosphatide Complex… 20mg
    Phosphatidyl serene 40%
    Phosphatidyl choline, Phosphatidyl ethanolamine, Phosphatiylinositol.

    Panax Ginseng…20mg

    I did do a study on the ingredients and found no problems with what is in it, but I do not understand how much of what ingredients a body should take. I find all the ingredients labels a bit confusing and am wondering if taking 4 of these at a time is enough or is secretagogue gold or maxiHGH or HGH surge a healthier choice?

  • 7 hgh truths // Feb 2, 2009 at 3:07 pm

    Latif,

    43 is a fine age for hgh supplements.

    No idea what you mean by the get higher question.

  • 8 hgh truths // Feb 2, 2009 at 3:09 pm

    Jen,

    GHR is even worse than any of the other GHR products we have already reviewed.

    Secretagogue Gold, Maxi HGH, and Hgh Surge are all better products.

  • 9 Chuck // Feb 5, 2009 at 3:52 am

    You mentioned this would be a good product to supplement one of the more complete products during a second cycle. What product do you suggest for a primary?
    Thank you for your help.

  • 10 hgh truths // Feb 5, 2009 at 11:16 am

    Chuck,

    The current products I am referring to are Secretagogue Gold, Secretagogue One, and Hgh Surge.

  • 11 Mary // Feb 16, 2009 at 2:33 pm

    Can I mix Max HGH with gatorade or any beverage of the same type?
    Thank you for your help.

  • 12 Mary // Feb 17, 2009 at 7:56 pm

    Dear Hgh truths,
    I meant to say ” Can I mix Maxi-HGH with gatorade or any beverage of the same kind.”
    thanks

  • 13 hgh truths // Feb 17, 2009 at 8:09 pm

    Mary,
    Straight water is best but there is nothing in gatorade that should cause any conflict. Just don’t consume it with any liquid that requires much digestion…. protein drinks, juice, etc.

  • 14 Jake // Mar 2, 2009 at 2:26 pm

    Dear Hgh Truths,

    I wish i would have found this site sooner, i bought some GenF20 and i started taking it about three days ago. To early to see if it works.
    But to get to my point if i was to take GenF20 and Maxi-HGH would that be bad for me or could i take both?

    Thank you

  • 15 hgh truths // Mar 5, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    Jake,

    You could add some Genf20 to the Maxi-HGh just to use it up.

  • 16 Mary // Mar 19, 2009 at 6:45 pm

    Dear hgh truths,

    You recommend to take Maxi-HGH with straight water, but the taste is nasty. What about with vitamin water?
    Thank you

  • 17 hgh truths // Mar 19, 2009 at 8:21 pm

    Mary,
    The best thing I have found to cover up the taste of amino acid powders are the no sugar powdered drink mixes.

  • 18 chris // Mar 22, 2009 at 11:07 am

    I take Maxi-HGH now on your suggestion and find that there is virtually no taste. All I drink is water and I can tell subtle differences in tastes and though I can tell when the powder is in my cup, it is not offensive by any means. let me just say that I have certainly had worse. I have been taking one HGH Surge pill with my dose of Maxi-HGH. Is that enough to make a difference or should I take more than that? By the way, I have been sleeping like a log since I started taking it and have had very vivid dreams that I remember clearly. It seems to be a side effect, but not neccessarily a bad one. I did notice the other day that my cardio workout went much better than expected and I hadn’t realized that that was a possible effect.

  • 19 chris // Mar 22, 2009 at 11:11 am

    I started taking it a little over a week ago.

  • 20 hgh truths // Mar 24, 2009 at 7:23 pm

    Chris,
    Play the HGH Surge dosage by ear. In other words, try taking more and see how that works for you personally.

    I generally can’t take more than 3 HGH Surge at a time so that is why I tend to mix it in with something else.

  • 21 Mary // Mar 25, 2009 at 2:32 pm

    Hgh truths,
    thanks, what a difference. I am trying crystal light powder, and I can’t taste the Maxi-HGH.
    I appreciate your help.

  • 22 hgh truths // Mar 26, 2009 at 7:30 am

    Mary,

    Glad that helped.

  • 23 jason // Mar 29, 2009 at 6:39 pm

    I was wondering if you knew anything about Genf20 and whether or not i should go with genf20 or maxi-HGH, Secretagogue Gold, or HGH Surge.

    thanks

  • 24 hgh truths // Mar 29, 2009 at 6:46 pm

    Jason,
    Obviously you missed the link at the bottom of the page for The Big List of HGH Supplement Reviews. We cover all thes products in seperate reviews that you can find the links to there.

    Genf20 is over priced crap.

  • 25 chris // Mar 30, 2009 at 10:50 am

    truths,
    Someone at GNC told me of a product that was not on your list that is said to work wonders called somatomax by HTP. They also said that they are re-releasing it under another name: Renutrients? That was what he called it but I’m not sure of the spelling. The new one is supposed to be the legal version of Somatomax since the FDA had issues with it being too good. Are you familiar?

  • 26 hgh truths // Mar 30, 2009 at 4:01 pm

    Chris,
    Renutrient was an illegal product. The FDA had issues because the main ingredient was an industrial solvent. Paint stripper.

    When we finish the review for Somatomax it is basically going to suggest that people do not buy it.

  • 27 chris // Mar 31, 2009 at 8:27 am

    Truths,
    One last comment and I’ll leave you guys alone. You seem to speak better of Maxi-HGH on your review than of Secretagogue Gold and Maxi-HGH is cheaper online by a few bucks (I found it for $27) and they give full disclosure of ingredients, which seems to be a source of happiness to you. My question is why you gave Gold a better grade or why you didn’t give Maxi a better grade.

  • 28 hgh truths // Mar 31, 2009 at 5:57 pm

    Chris,
    Yes we like full disclosure of ingredients. However, Secretagogue Gold is a more complete product than Maxi-HGH so it gets a higher grade.
    Though Maxi-HGH is still a good product.

  • 29 Qenn // Apr 8, 2009 at 6:36 pm

    I am confused, are you stating that we should take MHP’s Secretagogue Gold and Maxi-HGH at the same time? If I misunderstood, how would you cycle both products?

  • 30 . . // Apr 15, 2009 at 2:38 pm

    Renutrient’s ingredient, GBL, is converted to the well known, pretty safe if you’re not a moron, but maligned as a “date rape drug” (bullshit) GHB, which is in fact scheduled. GBL itself is not terribly toxic, but put anything in the hands of teenagers, typically in combination with alcohol, and… well, you know the rest. Generalizing it as “paint stripper” is disingenuous and only serves to make it sound scary and absurd. There are countless toxic ingredients that people breathe and ingest daily without any concern. Use your brain, be safe about it, and GBL is mostly fine.

  • 31 hgh truths // Apr 26, 2009 at 11:12 am

    ..,

    Really.. how lame is it that somebody can’t think of a better name than..
    GBL, the short form for gamma butyrolactone, is an industrial chemical that is used as a paint stripper and can melt super glue. While not as toxic as some chemicals, it is a federal crime to sell it or posses it for human consumption. Some states are even more hard ass about it.

    Now it is one of the base ingredients for the manufacture of GHB and if you take GBL straight your body can convert some of it into GHB through a bit of a hard process. GHB would definitely be the better option but of course it is a controlled substance.

    The date rape stuff is true but that is not the reason GHB is illegal. GHB is an easy to make drug that is both cheap and unpatentable. When used properly it works better as a sleep enhancing supplement than any sleeping pill on the market. A big threat to a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical market. It had to be stopped.

    Before the PR campaign to make GHB illegal not all that many people knew about it and most who did used it responsibly. When the PR campaign started GHB suddenly started being available everywhere. While a handy substance for many medical purposes, the worst thing about GHB was that too large a dosage could knock you out cold and it just plain does not mix with alcohol.

    Adults and teenagers are irresponsible with this stuff and the consequences of misuse are even worse than with many other substances.

  • 32 Mary // Apr 29, 2009 at 4:30 am

    Wow, you tell it like it is… Those of us that are looking to improve without putting our lives at risk, we love it.
    I am now on the second part of cycling: the month off. Can I take a protein powder drink, before workouts or that will decrease the effectiveness of cycling? Since the reason to stop taking hgh is for your body to produce hgh naturally, and most of protein powder drinks contain amino acids. If it is ok, which one should I buy?
    Thank you very much, for your honest work.

  • 33 hgh truths // May 1, 2009 at 8:08 am

    Mary,
    You can still take the protein drink before workouts. Food contains amino acids and we want you to stay healthy. The trick with good hgh supplements is the right combination and the rapid uptake on an empty stomach.

  • 34 Mary // May 1, 2009 at 6:44 pm

    Any protein drink that you can recommend.
    Thanks, again.

  • 35 hgh truths // May 3, 2009 at 12:57 pm

    Mary,
    For the last few years i have just been buying what Costco is selling. It used to be this really good staged release protein blend from some company in Arizona. When Costco switched to an EAS product, I ordered direct from the company until one day when they tripled the retail price so Bodybuilding.com could sell it at twice what I had been paying and claim that it was 30% off.

    So I switched to the EAS product that was also stage released until Costco gave up on it too. Now they sell a whey protein isolate that is not to bad but you get less product for your money. Time to search for a new source to buy an affordable time released product. Is it just me or have these products all gotten more expensive over the last five pears?

  • 36 Mary // May 10, 2009 at 6:01 am

    Dear Truths,

    I am still searching for a protein powder drink. I came across this one:
    “Biochem Sports 100% Greens & Whey Protein at vitacost.” Would you be able to let me know if this would be a good choice for a female athlete? I am trying to buy a protein drink that will satisfy my daily intake, without enlarging my muscles.
    Thank you so much for your help, as always.

  • 37 hgh truths // May 12, 2009 at 10:16 am

    Mary,

    It looked like an Ok product but maybe a little pricey. There is a great product out there called Green Magic that can be combined with any good whey isolate.

    The products themselves don’t enlarge muscles unless you are doing exercise workouts designed to enlarge muscles.

  • 38 Mary // May 13, 2009 at 1:19 pm

    As always, your knowledge and your time is truly appreciated.
    Thank you

  • 39 Chris Webber // May 20, 2009 at 9:16 pm

    Of the products you mentioned I really like this one best, my question is as it is a powder what can I add to it to make it get in to the upper tier of choices you mentioned above?

  • 40 hgh truths // May 21, 2009 at 11:21 am

    Chris,
    My recommendation is to always just take one product at first and see what happens. Worry about the mixing later.

    If you must mix, GHr Essentials is probably the best choice to mix with Maxi-hgh. Remember, stronger and faster is not always better whern it comes to hgh.

  • 41 Chris Webber // May 21, 2009 at 7:59 pm

    GHr Essentials sounds great for the price but for my weight it wants me taking 12 pills a day. If I was to use this as a combo with Maxi hgh how many pills prior to sleep do you think would be enough?

  • 42 hgh truths // May 21, 2009 at 9:50 pm

    Chris,
    Taking this with Maxi-HGH you only need 3 to 6 pills.

  • 43 Zak // Dec 21, 2009 at 6:17 am

    hi,
    i would like to know how this product will help a 17 year old? will it boost growth hormone levels?, help overall develoment? increase sport performance levels? or are these products just for old people?
    hope to hear from you soon.
    thanks

  • 44 hgh truths // Jan 4, 2010 at 4:03 pm

    Zak,
    Waste of money for a 17 year old.

  • 45 Mike // Jan 21, 2010 at 1:38 pm

    What Hgh product would be best for building muscle and strength?

  • 46 hgh truths // Jan 25, 2010 at 5:43 pm

    Mike,
    Any high ranking product is going to be about the same.
