What is DHEA?


DHEA is a naturally made hormone produced by the human body. DHEA is produced by the adrenal glands and is responsible for helping to produce other important hormones such as testosterone, estrogen, progestogen, and corticosteroids. Like many other hormones, as the human body ages, some people notice that DHEA levels begin to fall — studies show that by ages of 65 to 70, the human body typically makes only 10 - 20% of the DHEA that is made from the ages of 20 - 25.

Anti-Aging and DHEA


Often, DHEA and Adrenal boosters, such as ours, can help to improve physical appearance and tends to have anti-aging effects. Research shows that taking DHEA boosters help to increase the thickness and hydration of the top layer of our skin — If taken properly it has been shown to be a very safe and effective anti-aging tool.


Research shows that postmenopausal women taking DHEA boosters for at least 4 months have seen improvements in the appearance of their skin. Anti-aging effects from DHEA appear because they increase IGF-1 levels — which help to promote new cell growth, especially in those who are over the age of 60 - 65. DHEA is also shown to help to protect bone loss and lowers the risk of fractures, higher levels of DHEA have been shown to help to repair bone mineral density in older women.


DHEA boosters should be avoided by those under 30, those who are being treated for prostate or breast cancer, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
