For years, companies have been marketing oral sprays that are claimed to contain human growth hormone (HGH, an anti-aging drug popular among those who can afford it). The FTC has filed a temporary restraining order against three companies requiring them to stop making such false claims. Read the story here.
The whole premise of supplemental HGH use for fat loss is silly. It takes pharmaceutical doses (supraphysiological levels) to induce any fat loss. This isn't possible without actually injecting the drug, which is a popular approach to anti-aging among the wealthy (and not without risks). However, all other attempts at increasing HGH levels with supplements or workout strategies are doomed to failure.
