Our
DHEA levels decrease as we get older, generally falling
significantly by the time we are 30. Increased DHEA
levels have been shown to improve one’s sense of well
being, reduce body fat and improve skin tone and moisture,
increase sex drive, improve immunity, enhance memory,
and increase bone density. DHEA supplementation also
results in increases in IGF-1, which is an important
youth hormone related to human growth hormone. DHEA
has been credited with reducing symptoms of Lupus and
depression. Alzheimer’s victims typically have low
DHEA levels, suggesting it may be possible to combat
this disease through DHEA supplementation.
Current
research suggests that DHEA may be of value in preventing
and treating cardiovascular disease, high cholestoral,
diabetes, obesity, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, immune
system disorders including AIDS, and chronic fatigue.
DHEA may also enhance the body's immune response to
viral and bacterial infections. Perhaps most interesting,
DHEA is currently being investigated as an anti-aging
hormone...New evidence suggest this hormone is so beneficial
for so many different conditions that it may turn out
to be the most important medical advance of the decade.

Recent
studies have shown that supplementing with DHEA increases
the life span of lab animals, prevents experimental
cancers, improves immune function...and probably helps
prevent or reverse osteoporosis.

Townsend Letter For Doctors
DHEA
is the most abundant steroid in the human bloodstream.
Research has found it to have significant anti-obesity,
anti-tumor, anti-aging, and anti-cancer effects. DHEA
levels naturally drop as people age, and there is good
reason to think that taking a DHEA supplement may extend
your life and make you more youthful while you are alive.
Additionally, DHEA may be an important player in cognitive
enhancement.
