Colostrum Powder

Are these pills believeable?

These pills promote good brain and bone development by stimulating thyroid and pituitary gland. The part where it has many people skeptical is the gurantee that you will grow taller than parents or money back. before you tell me that it is a scam, is there a sliiiiiiiight possibility that these pills have soooome sort of effect on height? i list ingredients here... vitamin c --- 250 mg niacin --- 6 mg colostrum 30% IgG --- 100 mg Bio-Active Growth Factors (From Colostrum) --- 780 ng Soy Isolated Protein --- 400 mg DHA (Docosahexacnoic Acid) --- 50 mg Echinacea Purpurea Plant Powder --- 100 mg Shitake Mushroom Powder --- 50 mg L-Arginine --- 6 mg L-Ornithine --- 6mg Pituitary Desiccated Gland Powder --- 40 mg Apple Fiber Peel Powder --- 20 mg Calcium Citrate --- 75 mg Please Answer Seriously because took me a while to type that http://www.wisdom-health.com/reason.html

1. i don't think it will make you grow, but that stuff in it is good for you the vitamin c and calcium citrate. But unless you're 18, you're not done growing yet anyways so you could outgrow your parents anyways. hope i helped
2. i dont know about the brain development but there is a pill that is a growth horomone and it makes you taller but i dont kno if thats the pill you have or not but if it was on a commercial dont believe it
3. it's a scam, your height is genetically predetermined. they likely won't even be in business when you achieve your final growth.
4. I'm skeptical about it stimulating thyroid function. If vitamins could do that I wouldn't need synthetic hormones. EDIT the girl above me's right, I heard something on a science news program that your height is determined by your DNA.
5. I think height of humans develops in such a complex way that we do not understand all of it. As a rule of thumb, a child will be the size of the average of the parents, or slightly taller. But that may not be true for individual cases.Both Nature and Norture have a thing to say: both inheritance and other factors are important. We know little about these other factors. People in Northern Europe are taller than in Southern Europe. Children in Northern Europe grow taller than their parents, and this has been going on for generations. The Dutch and Scandinavian people are now among the tallest in the world. But why? A balanced diet, healthy pregnancies, optimal medical child care, and high social standards result in more height. But even correcting for the absence of vitamin deficiencies and crippling diseases from the past, it is hard to explain why tweens are now few inches taller than the tweens of 20 years ago. I don't know whether this is observed in other parts of the world as well. A Dutchman visiting Asia feels like a giant. My guess is that the genes dictate that this won't change in future.

6. In my limited knowledge of drugs and vitamins my answer would be No. Your height is generally pre-determined at birth. I can say though, my understanding is a healthy diet or vitamins used in context will help you not stunt your own growth, but will not help you grow either.
7. hey, this will help you grow taller if you are lacking nutrients contained in the pills. Colostrum is just a fancy word for a special protein that helps your hair skin nails, and connective tissues grow better. colostrum is something almost every one lacks because one of the only ways to get it is from a nursing cow. just stay faithful to the vitamin supplement, eat small meals every 3 hours and get plenty of sleep. exercise 3-4 times a week and you will grow very well. some of my friends have grown just from fixing their nutrition and working out. i hope this helps :D
8. First of all, how old are you? My brother-in-law is 5 foot 7 inches, my sister-in-law is 5 foot 2 inches, their kids are (girl 5'4), boys are 6'1 6'3. So if you want to grow don't worry about it because the older you get you usually grow, say you were 21 inches at birth you'll probably be around 5ft 4in. So don't worry you'll grow. The pills are silly if you ask me, pills can't make you grow.
9. Nature vs. Nurture, you may be taller than your parents any way. The genetic odds go much further back than just the parents. Any substance that will absolutely change the human growth rate would be a controlled substance. Spend your money on wholesome foods,get plenty of exercise and fresh air and play the hand that your genetics dealt you.
10. Scam? You bet. You have a good shot at being at least as tall or slightly taller than your parents, simply because of genetics, better health care and better nutrition than any proceding generation. While pituitary extract containing human growth hormones can stimulate growth in an already growing person, it only comes in a liquid injectable form- not dessicated dried up powder from who knows where. The vitamin c and niacin won't hurt you any, there's not enough in there to do much one way or the other and being water soluble, if you don't use them you will just flush them. Apple peel, that's just pectin. So at least you won't have diarrhea with this. Calcium, again a good thing, in a nice form to absorb, but not in a really helpful amount. Soy, okay, good protein source- but colostrum isn't necessary if you are more than a few days old. That's normally the first fluid we get from mom, when we are born- helps clear up the intestines and get them ready for milk. Mushroom powder, well- shitakes taste good, and it won't hurt you. But all in all, I'd say they are just taking your money and not offering much in return you couldn't get from a cheaper and tastier source. Just spend your money on good food, eat right, take a good vitamin/mineral supplement, exercise and live a sensible lifestyle. And you will still likely end up at least as tall, if not slightly taller than your parents. Odds are already in your favor.
11. They probably don't work. Promoting height growth could be regarded as science fiction. Perhaps in the distant future it may be possible. In the Search for questions slot type in "growth pills" and you will get at least 79 results.
