DHEA (Dehydro-Epiandosterone is a hormone that is produced naturally by the body. It is produced within the adrenal glands, and it is thought of as the most abundant in the steroid family of hormones. The body uses DHEA to create estrogen and testosterone. As we age, our DHEA levels can decline resulting in a loss of interest in sex, as well as lowered energy levels and depression. DHEA deficiency is thought to contribute to the development of such illnesses as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematous (SLE). Additionally, lowered levels of DHEA are linked to the weakening of the bones known as osteoporosis. Vita Living offers a wide variety of high quality DHEA supplements for both men and women.
Research indicates that the use of DHEA may help improve sexual function in both men and women. In women, it seems use of DHEA as a supplement may help renew sensation and interest in sexual activity. In men with erectile dysfunction, DHEA supplementation has been shown to be helpful. Additionally, supplementation can be helpful in alleviating depression. Furthermore, supplementation with DHEA may help prevent and treat SLE. It is important to note that it has been proven to ease symptoms but not to alter the course of the illness. In men, DHEA has been shown to be helpful in enhancing the effectiveness of weight training. Additionally, it may help improve sports performance.
Studies show that taken in the short term (one year or less) DHEA can be beneficial to older people as a supplement; however, it should not be taken for an extended period of time as this may cause excessive testosterone levels in women. Furthermore, in studies conducted with rats, some concern has been expressed regarding the development of liver cancer in subjects. Generally speaking, DHEA is deemed safe and effective for mature adults; however, it should not be used by pregnant or nursing mothers, children or people who have liver or kidney problems.
