Sorry for bumping the thread.
As I let you guys know that I've ordered supplements like L-Arginine, IGF-1 and Whey Protein Isolate (powder) from bodybuilding.com , I was quite impressed to see what people has toned their bodies to.
I was a fan of body building since my childhood, and even used to train hard like pushups, pullups, running/walking 1-2 kms a day and such other things back in 2007-2008. I also won a new comer achievement award into badminton camp back in 2007, so I was sporty and badminton was a sport I could take myself pride in.
But all that ended, my dreams and everything after I was first hit with diabetes (still that didn't broke my morale down and I was a regular exerciser) but April 2009 which hit me with osteoporosis. I sometimes thought or rather cried alone suffering with pain and thinking the golden days back of 2007-08 and that how good those days was. I could not even lift my foot by a cm during 2009 till it's end.
Today, I'm good and can walk and run a few meters continuously but my bones are still brittle but getting stronger day by day as I'm taking Osteocare (a good calcium/mag supplement).
So while searching L-Arginine I was linked to those natural products. I also ordered dumbbells (2.5 kg each) and plan to start intense weight training and body building myself in home. If an improvement is seen and when I gain enough strength, I'll probably start Gym as well.
Thal major isn't going to stop my from reaching my goals.
In case anyone wonders what I ordered, here's the list:
https://www.bodybuilding.com/store/jarrow/arginine1000.html (L-Arginine)
https://www.bodybuilding.com/store/now/igf.html (IGF-1)
https://www.bodybuilding.com/store/now/whey.html (Whey Protein - Purest form of greater amount of protein available on earth with very low carbs and calories).
All above products are safe and can be used for thals. It's a coincidence that body builders use it regularly and they do get good and optimum result. They are little costly, but oh well.
Arginine would increase or rather accelerate and help for Growth Hormone production as well as many other benefits like keeping heart healthy, supplying NO, etc.
IGF-1 means Insulin (like) Growth Factor. It is the main component that is used to make/secrete GH and leads to growth of muscle mas and also leans body. Thal majors has very low amount of IGF-1 which stunts growth. This thing can help promote growth and the growth of muscle mass as well. I will report how it goes when it arrives and I've waited considerably to see the results.
Now Whey Protein is something very great. Purest protein, no sugar and unflavored (as I'm diabetic, it's boon for me). Protein is needed for building muscle mass and also to burn sugar and fatness. This one contains pure protein and in good amounts.
I hope one day, I'll too have a body of which I can be proud.
