I want to grow taller. how effective are the hgh pills that have to be taken orally compared to the injections?

WOULDN'T WORK: HGH is a complex protein that would be broken up by digestion, leaving some of its building block proteins behind. The only way to get specific HGH benefits is to deliver it as an injection.
