13. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the human being is at least 30 years old.
14. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the human being exhibits one or more symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder selected from the group consisting of re-experiencing the original trauma(s) through flashbacks or nightmares, avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma, increased arousal, difficulty falling or staying asleep, anger, and hypervigilance.
15. A method for improving health in a human being by increasing levels of human growth hormone in the human being, the method comprising:
