So, when we get older, naturally growth hormone level drop, and then our metabolic level decreasing, especially the growth hormone help to build muscle. If we gradually loose muscle and the fat tissue accumulate, then our metabolic level also decreasing. Acupuncture has been scientifically prove to increase the growth hormone. So we build more lean body weight but also, it helps breakdown the fat tissue. Furthermore, it inhibit the fat cell from picking up more fat from the blood to accumulate in abdominal area as a fat tissue. So that's the hormone. Acupuncture can help optimize the level, combining with Gaba combining with Endorphin so help us to control the weight.
