[QUOTE="Gene Devine, post: 36948, member: 4"] [B]DHEA Supplementation Dehydroepiandrosterone: DHEA As presented by Dr. Neal Rouzier, M.D.[/B] Here's a great reason to add DHEA to your protocol. DHEA is a hormone secreted primarily by the adrenal glands. It results in a shift of a catabolic state to an anabolic or protein building state. · It reduces cardiovascular risks by increasing lipolyses (decrease visceral fat). · It stimulates the immune system, restores sexual vitality, improves moods, decreases cholesterol and body fat. · It improves memory, increases energy, and has anti-cancer properties by enhancing the immune system. · It is an endocrine precursor to other hormones, prevents immuno-senescence, loss of sleep, osteoporosis, atherosclerosis. · DHEA reduces insulin requirement · Adrenal hormone anabolic vs. catabolic metabolism · Restores immunity · Prevents osteoporosis, increases bone density · Prevents cancer in lab animals · Prevents diabetes & heart disease · Decreases visceral fat · Improves mood & well-being · Improves energy & memory · Slows aging process in lab animals · Prevents lipid peroxidation = antioxidant · Endocrine precursor to T.P.E. · 7-keto DHEA is not a precursor to other HRT = avoid · Neurotransmitter (recently discovered) · Presently pending FDA approval for Lupus (Prasterone) [ATTACH type="full"]40940[/ATTACH] [B]Clinically substantiated uses of DHEA include replacement for:[/B] · Low DHEA levels · Chronic disease · Adrenal exhaustion or corticosteroid therapy · SLE · Improving bone density · Improving depression & mood disorders · Enhancing immune response by activating T-cells · Improving well-being · Decreasing cardiovascular risk · Improving erectile dysfunction · Anyone over 40 · DHEA has never been shown to reverse the aging process · Nevertheless DHEA is important for preventive medicine · DHEA inhibits synthesis of thromboxane A2, reduces plasminogen activator inhibitor, and tissue plasminogen activator – all decreasing platelet aggregation and ischemia.

The ratio of cortisol to DHEA is really what matters since each of those hormones are produced by the adrenal glands to balance each other.
