• Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA): The most abundant adrenal steroid, DHEA acts as a hormone precursor and neurosteroid, influencing testosterone, estrogen, mood, metabolism, and cell signaling.* [1,12]
• Micronized for Absorption: Reduces particle size to improve serum levels and bioavailability.* [11,9]
Hormone Balance and Aging
• DHEA levels decline by up to 80% by the seventh decade; supplementation (25–50 mg) has been shown to support menopausal symptoms, adrenal hormone levels, and metabolic health.* [7,6]
• DHEA supports bone health when combined with calcium and vitamin D, improving markers like IGF-1 and osteocalcin.* [10,8]
Cognition and Neuroprotection
• DHEA-S levels are associated with cognitive function in older adults.* [12,16,14]
• Supplementation with 25–50 mg per day supported memory and cognitive parameters in postmenopausal women.* [15]
Fertility and Reproductive Health
• Daily DHEA supplementation improves ovarian function, oocyte retrieval, and fertility outcomes.* [20,18,19,22]
• Micronized DHEA at 75–80 mg per day has been beneficial to support fertility.* [17,23]
Metabolic Support
• 25 mg of micronized DHEA supported insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism parameters within normal limits over 12 months.* [8,13]
