DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is a prohormone produced by the adrenal glands, and levels of this hormone decline in the human body with age.
DHEA is short for dehydroepiandrosterone, a prohormone produced by the adrenal glands in the body. Its levels start to decline after the age of 30, so it's important to replace it to stay healthy. A lack of this anti-ageing, anti-stress hormone can cause heart problems, weight gain and libido problems, among other things. DHEA supplementation can be a solution to this problem, helping to replace the diminishing levels in our bodies over time.
DHEA is produced in the adrenal glands, which can be considered one of the body's hormone factories. It is also where stress hormones are produced. DHEA is also a precursor of male and female sex hormones such as testosterone and oestrogen. About 30-50% of the sex hormones circulating in the body are derived from DHEA.
DHEA levels decline with age as part of the natural ageing process, and replacing it can have a number of health benefits:
- stimulates muscle strength
- supports weight loss
- improves bone density
- increases sex drive
- reduces inflammation, strengthens the immune system
- keeps the mind fresh, relieves anxiety
- may promote sugar metabolism
DHEA
helps reduce cognitive decline, which is a byproduct of advancing age, and also relieves anxiety and has a calming effect. DHEA supplementation also
has a good effect on the condition of hair, nails and skin. It can be useful for dieting, and it even helps to keep the libido at the desired level. Bodybuilders and dieters can also take advantage of its beneficial effects, as it
stimulates muscle strength by increasing testosterone production, thus enabling greater exertion and increasing training performance. Metabolism slows down with age. However, DHEA supplementation supports
more efficient energy use, thereby making fat burning more efficient. It is no coincidence that it is used to increase muscle mass, strength and energy levels.
