A UPI story mentioned that research at the Medical College of
Wisconsin in Milwaukee (announced in July) indicated that "injections
of hGH over six months had reversed 10 to 20 years of aging in 12 men
ranging in age from 61 to 73."

Does anyone know what "reversed 10 to 20 years" means?

The article also quotes Biotechnology News as predicting a potential
annual market of $70 billion (over half the current legal drug market
of $130 billion).
