DHEA (DeHydroEpiAndrosterone)
Lose Weight, Slow Aging, Improve Hormone Levels with this "Master Hormone"
DHEA is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal glands. It is a
precursor (“master hormone”) for
many other steroid hormones including
male and female sex hormones (estrogen and
testosterone) and corticosteroids. DHEA
levels often decline dramatically with age. Low DHEA
levels in the brain and blood
are thought to contribute to many of the problems associated with aging.
DHEA has been
shown in numerous clinical studies
to:
- improve age-related memory
and mental decline
- increase strength and
muscle mass lost through aging
- enhance antibody and immune
system response
- protect against heart disease
and atherosclerosis
- increase interleukin-2
(beneficial) and suppress interleukin-6 which increase with age and
are
associated with autoimmune disease, osteoporosis, immune system
decline, depression, breast cancer, B-cell lymphoma
and anemia.
- promote
weight loss.
In addition, DHEA may be helpful for reduced libido and
fatigue
in those over forty, and in autoimmune disease regardless of age.
Suggested dose: (over forty years of age):
Men: 50 mg DHEA per day.
Women: 25 mg DHEA per day.
Although higher doses of DHEA may be valuable, a male or
female
hormone test to determine baseline
DHEA levels is highly advised before using higher doses.
Sublingual DHEA - 25 mg
Oral DHEA is processed almost immediately by the liver, where it is prepared
for excretion. This means that much of the DHEA taken in oral form is "lost"
before it is used by the body.
Sublingual (dissolved under the tongue) DHEA allows the hormone to be
effective in the body for a longer period of time before it is transformed by
the liver for elimination.
If you have been taking DHEA orally but still have low DHEA levels, consider
taking the sublingual form for better absorption and improved hormone effect.
