IGF-1 (Insulin Like Growth Factor)

Hi all,

Stephen and others, I'm wondering if you all could shed some light on IGF and whether I can influence this via diet or not. The AO site says so but I guess I'm looking for more information.

I came across this study yesterday and this is what is causing my interest. It does mention IGF-1 serum close to the bottom and references other studies, which I'm about to go and read now.

  1. Some of the references from the Diet page may help provide more detailed information, such as
