Starting a new thread for better visibility. From Madman's post Illicit use of hCG in dietary programs and to promote anabolism:
The above statements are very concerning for anyone using HCG. The quote if from a medical text written by Laurence Cole and Stephen Butler. Laurence Cole is director of the HCG reference center and the University of New Mexico. He has published ~300 papers on HCG in peer reviewed scientific journals. In reviewing some of his papers he clearly understands the difference between exogenously administered HCG and HCG secreting tumors, and as stated above considers exogenous HCG to be a dangerous cancer causing agent.
hCG variants as dangerous substances
Research presented in this book clearly demonstrates and confirms that hCG variants, most notably hyperglycosylated hCG, hyperglycosylated hCG free β-subunit, extravillous cytotrophoblast hCG and its free β-subunit, are the principal drivers, the malignancy factor of most human cancers (see Chapter 30). These promoters, but not regular hCG, function by binding and antagonizing a TGFβ type II receptor [30–32]. Expression of the molecules and their TGFβ pathways appear to be a major part of carcinogenesis or human cancer transformation. These agents probably start and maintain all cancers.
These four molecules, hyperglycosylated hCG, hyperglycosylated hCG free β-subunit, extravillous cytotrophoblast hCG and its free β-subunit, appear to transfer cells into malignant cells by driving growth, blocking apoptosis, and driving invasion (see Chapter 30). As such, if a person has damaged tissues, pre-cancerous tissue, or immune-suppressed cancer tissue in their body, then that person is likely to have that tissue transformed into cancer tissue by the presence of these molecules. Looking at pregnancy urine hCG as discussed in Chapters 5 and 6, it is an average of 84.5% hormone hCG, 1.9% hyperglycosylated hCG, and 13.7% extravillous cytotrophoblast hCG. So all urinary concentrates of pregnancy hCG must contain the cancer molecules. We gave not studied 100s or 1000s of cases that have received these mixtures but I am sure that a significant number of them eventually developed cancer.
As shown in Table 29.1, most common prescription commercial hCG preparations are contaminated with these molecules. This is probably particularly true regarding hCG pills and hCG nasal drops sold on the Internet. It is inferred that these urinary-derived hCG preparations are highly carcinogenic or very dangerous substances.
One hCG preparation, Serono Ovidrel, is a recombinant form of hCG made with Chinese hamster ovary cells. It is an absolutely pure hormone hCG containing no hyperglycosylated hCG or extravillous cytotrophoblast hCG. This is seemingly the safest form of hCG to use. It still is very slowly or partially dissociated into hCG free β-subunit, one of the cancer promoters [33], so it is not completely harmless. If one has to administer hCG to oneself, then this expensive preparation, Serono Ovidrel, is clearly the only form to use. Ideally, however, one should stay away from all forms of hCG.
