Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a major adrenal hormone that has recently garnered a lot of attention in the press. Focalized in the adrenals and gonads, DHEA is synthesized in the brain and is vital in the smooth functioning of the neuroendocrine system. A wide variety of studies have shown the benefits of DHEA supplementation. Its relevance to psychiatric disorders has been illustrated in modulating synaptic transmission on glutamate, GABA, dopamine, serotonin and nitric oxide. These studies show the effect of DHEA on neurotransmitter systems at different levels including metabolism, release, reuptake and receptor activation, as well as the activation of voltage-gated ion channels and calcium homeostasis. A wide body of research shows the benefits of DHEA supplementation for both men and women. DHEA has been studied as a viable option for hormone replacement therapy and/or an anti-aging tool. A year long study showed that DHEA supplementation administered daily raised sex hormones,resulting in improvement with symptoms associated with adrenal fatigue, menopause, and PMS. Additionally, a study on men aimed at evaluating the neuroendocrine clinical consequences of long term (1year) low dose DHEA (25mg/day) therapy demonstrated that DHEA supplementation caused significant changes in hormonal profiles and symptoms associated with male andropause. DHEA is synthesized from Pregnenolone. Assisting the body to improve hormone production on its own is one of the benefits of DHEA supplementation and studies have shown greater benefits when small amounts of Pregnenolone are included in the formulation. Energetix DHEA Liposome Drops includes a small amount of Pregnenolone as well as Vitamin B3 to assist with the synthesis of the formulation. DHEA Liposome Drops may be helpful in healing strategies that aim to assist with balancing the neuroendocrine system and for assisting with symptoms associated with adrenal fatigue and hormone imbalance. Hormones are conjugated in the liver; therefore any healing strategy targeting the endocrine system should include biliary support such as Liver-Tone, Core Carduus Marianus or Spring Breeze. Energetix
