PBRC is a rapidly growing firm engaged in the business of Anti-Aging Therapies with emphasis on Human Growth Hormone human growth hormone (HGH): see growth hormone. and Testosterone Therapy. Since inception in December, 2000, PBRC has experienced rapid revenue growth to $757,600 during the quarter ended March 31, 2002, from $22,200 during the same quarter of 2001.

The current human growth hormone market is estimated to be approximately $2 billion and is shared by Kabi, Genentech, Eli-Lilly, Serono and Pharmacia. It has been widely reported that a significant number of the adult population over 40 is growth hormone growth hormone or somatotropin (sōmăt'ətrō`pən), glycoprotein hormone released by the anterior pituitary gland that is necessary for normal skeletal growth in humans (see protein). deficient.

Prior to FDA approval, HGH HGH, hGH human growth hormone. HGH abbr. human growth hormone hGH Human growth hormone. See Growth hormone. was only authorized for use to promote growth in short-statured children with HGH deficiencies. Physicians now prescribe HGH for hormonal deficient adult patients and to delay to the aging process in adults. Clinical studies conducted by Dr. Daniel Rudman, an endocrinologist from Madison, WI, were published in the New England Journal of Medicine The New England Journal of Medicine (New Engl J Med or NEJM) is an English-language peer-reviewed medical journal published by the Massachusetts Medical Society. It is one of the most popular and widely-read peer-reviewed general medical journals in the world. on July 5, 1990, with clinical findings on human growth hormone and its effects on aging. Using volunteers with an average age of 71 for his studies, Dr. Rudman, administered synthetically manufactured HGH to replicate what the human pituitary pituitary /pi·tu·i·tary/ (pi-too´i-tar?e) 1. hypophysial. 2. pituitary gland; see under gland. anterior pituitary adenohypophysis. usually produces naturally. Dr. Rudman's published study reported a reversal of the aging process after six months of injections in the group receiving the HGH. Dr Daniel Rudman in the New England Journal of Medicine reported that, "The effects of six months of human growth hormone on lean body mass and adipose tissue adipose tissue (ăd`əpōs'): see connective tissue. adipose tissue or fatty tissue Connective tissue consisting mainly of fat cells, specialized to synthesize and contain large globules of fat, within a were equivalent in magnitude to the changes incurred during 10 to 20 years of aging." The group that didn't receive any HGH continued to age normally.
