Does Dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA] Prevent
Aging?
What is DHEA?
Dehydroepiandrosterone or DHEA is made from cholesterol by the
adrenal glands, which sit on top of each kidney. Production of this
substance peaks in the mid-20s, and gradually declines with age in
most people.
Deficiency of (dehydroepiandrosterone) DHEA is associated with
lupus erythematosus, diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease and
some cancers. DHEA supplements have shown some benefits for
these or other conditions in observational clinical studies and
laboratory studies.
