Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a precursor to steroid hormones that helps maintain healthy hormone levels and supports the stress response system. It acts as a counterpart to the stress hormone cortisol, and maintaining healthy DHEA levels is crucial for counterbalancing the catabolic effects of cortisol.
DHEA and its sulfate form, DHEAs, are the most abundant steroid hormones in the human body and can be found in blood, saliva, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). DHEA serves as a reserve for intracellular synthesis of various estrogens and androgens throughout the body. DHEA production peaks during the second decade of life and typically declines by 10% per decade starting in the early 1930s. Other factors contributing to decreased DHEA production may include inflammation, blood sugar imbalances, and chronic stress.
Suggested Use:
Take one capsule daily, or as advised by your healthcare provider.
