Overview DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is an endogenous (naturally occurring in the human body) steroid. By definition, it can also be classified as a hormone since hormones are chemical messengers made in a gland or tissue that start, stop, or otherwise orchestrate activity in some other tissue. Upon secretion by the adrenal glands, DHEA circulates throughout the bloodstream as DHEA-sulfate or DHEAS. It is then converted as needed into other hormones including androgen in males and estrogen in females. Levels of DHEA in the body typically peak in early adulthood and begin to decrease after age 30; the average 75 year old typically has only 10-20% of the DHEA in the body that was in circulation during its peak. Researchers have reported low DHEA levels in some patients with end-stage kidney disease, non-insulin dependent diabetes (type 2), anorexia, adrenal insufficiency, and in the critically ill. DHEA may also be depleted by a number of drugs including opiates, corticosteroids, danazol, and insulin. Our DHEA is available as capsule in three convenient potencies; 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg.
