DHEA is short for dehydroepiandrosterone. DHEA is a naturally occurring hormone precursor. It is the most abundant pro-hormone in the human body.
DHEA is produced by the adrenal glands sex organs and in the skin, and is metabolized into other hormones such as testosterone and estrogens. DHEA supports immune function, energy, sleep and cardiovascular health.
DHEA supports cognitive function, focus and sense of well-being, and helps to counterbalance the negative effects of the stress hormone, cortisol –the inflammatory response hormone.
