About Dehydroepiandrosterone
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a naturally occurring steroid hormone produced primarily by the adrenal glands. It serves as a precursor to several other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. DHEA levels typically peak in early adulthood and decline with age. Supplementation with DHEA aims to restore youthful hormone levels, potentially improving energy, libido, bone density, and cognitive function. However, efficacy and safety remain subjects of ongoing research.
