Description
Have you ever heard of DHEA? Dehydroepiandrosterone is one of the hormones that are so vital to your health. Although it has its own benefits‚ it’s most important for its role as the precursor to sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen; both hormones are needed by men and women alike in order to function properly. It also influences your body’s production of progesterone. Unfortunately‚ natural DHEA production slows down significantly after age 30‚ and continues to decline during middle age. This may contribute to some of the health issues you may suffer from as you get older.
Stress‚ infection‚ trauma‚ and a vegetarian or vegan diet have also been shown to contribute to a deficiency in DHEA. Having sufficient levels of DHEA in your plasma is necessary due to its ability to help you maintain immune system and brain functioning‚ energy‚ and good lean body mass. It may also support production from the adrenal glands and lift your mood. A DHEA supplement like Douglas Labs’ DHEA 5 mg Micronized Tablets may also provide some cardiovascular benefits.
Douglas Laboratories’ DHEA tablets are manufactured with the highest-quality‚ purest DHEA available. These five milligram tablets provide mild support for your body’s natural production of DHEA‚ and are less likely to interfere with other medications. Since these pills are sublingual‚ you can allow them to dissolve in your mouth or mix them with a liquid like water or juice; this is ideal if you’re unable or unwilling to swallow tablets.
