Some say at night for better recovery, while others suggest daytime for more energy. Should I fast for 2 hours before or after dosing? I'm getting conflicting information. Any sources to support these claims would be appreciated.
When is the best time to take HGH?

Take HGH one hour before bed for maximal hepatic IGF-1 output. Inject it upon waking up for additional fat loss with fasted cardio. If insulin sensitivity is a concern, take it pre or post-workout to leverage GLUT4 translocation. If you're experiencing insulin sensitivity issues, GH timing is likely not your biggest problem. I specialize in this.
Take HGH in the morning since it's usually easier to be fasted. The general rule is not to eat one hour before and two hours after taking it. You can also take it at night, but if the dose is too high and you take it before sleeping without eating again, you might experience hypoglycemia, which can cause sweating, increased heart rate, and insomnia.
For fat loss, take it first thing in the morning, then fast for 2-3 hours if possible. For bulking, split the dose into morning and evening if possible; timing isn't as important.
