Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01HumanEndogenous levelObservational studyMechanism

    In young athletes, vibrational-proprioceptive training was linked to a significant twofold increase in muscle IGF-1 Ec mRNA (the MGF isoform).

    In plain wordsIn young athletes, vibration training was linked to higher levels of the body's own IGF-1 Ec (MGF) in muscle.

    Summary · context
    In 29 ISO-K- or VIB-trained young athletes we evaluated: force, muscle fiber morphometry, and gene expression of muscle atrophy/hypertrophy cell signaling.

    This result measures the body's own MGF / PEG-MGF. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
