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. 03AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rats, 11 weeks of overload training increased MGF mRNA levels in peritoneal macrophages compared with sedentary controls.

    In plain wordsIn rats, hard training raised the body's own MGF gene activity in immune cells compared with resting rats.

    Summary
    IGF-1 and MGF mRNA levels in Mϕs from overload training group increased significantly compared with the control group (21-fold and 92-fold, respectively; P < 0.01).
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    Rats were randomized to two groups, sedentary control group (n = 10) and overload training group (n = 10).
    Summary · context
    The rats of overload training group were subjected to 11 weeks of experimental training protocol.

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