Manufacturer's Description:

DHEA is a hormone that decreases in your body as you age. FIGHT BACK!

A host of highly respected scientists are saying that DHEA is the most important medical advance of the past decade. Studies show that DHEA dramatically reduces body fat, builds lean muscle mass, fights the ravages of old age and helps prevent cancer.

One study at Virginia Commonwealth University tracked a group of men who took DHEA for 28 days. This scientifically controlled trial showed that these men DECREASED THEIR BODY FAT BY AN INCREDIBLE 31% WITH NO CHANGES IN BODY WEIGHT EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T EXERCISE! HEALTH MAGAZINE recently reported how one study proved that "DHEA increased muscle mass in both men and women and the men gained strength and lost fat".

Another study published in the prestigious NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE documented that men with higher levels of DHEA in their system showed a "forty-eight percent drop in heart disease risk and a thirty-six percent decrease in death by any cause." TIME magazine touted still another study that showed elderly people who were given small doses of DHEA daily exhibited "improved well being...increased mobility, less joint discomfort and sounder sleep."

What exactly is Dehydroepiandrosterone? DHEA, the most abundant hormone in the body, is produced by the adrenal glands and is the precursor of estrogen, testosterone and many other hormones. While levels of this amazing substance are high when we are between the ages of 18 to 25, they steadily decline with age.

By the time we reach 75 our bodies make only 10%-20% of the DHEA we made when we were 21. Much evidence exists to show that our health gets worse as our DHEA levels go down. As HOLISTIC MEDICINE recently pointed out, "Current research suggests that DHEA may be of value in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, other memory disturbances, immune system disorders including acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and chronic fatigue."

While the FDA made DHEA a prescription-only item ten years ago, rules and regulations required the FDA to hold hearings as to why DHEA should not be sold "over-the counter". The FDA kept postponing these hearings and a new federal law called the DIETARY SUPPLEMENT AND HEALTH ACT put the burden on the FDA to prove why DHEA should be scheduled as a controlled substance and to disprove hundreds of studies that show DHEA poses no threat to the body. Such hearings would be an expensive and time-consuming process for the FDA and may never come to pass. Unless the FDA makes a good case for restriction of the chemical, DHEA is now and will remain a legal, non-prescription substance. During the time the FDA ban on DHEA was in effect, DHEA precursors derived from Mexican Wild Yam were (and still are) sold widely in health food stores. Many companies sell these ineffective precursors to circumvent FDA regulations against DHEA and label them as if they were pure DHEA. Unsuspecting consumers, unaware of the difference between the two, buy the precursor of DHEA thinking it is the real thing. The problem is that these precursors have no pure DHEA in them. Pure DHEA is currently unavailable in most stores.

But while pure DHEA is difficult to find, it is no longer impossible. GENETIC EVOLUTIONARY NUTRITION is committed to providing the highest quality cutting edge supplements on the market. The company is so dedicated to providing pure DHEA that it will furnish an independent laboratory analysis, upon request, that confirms the DHEA it sells is pure, pharmaceutical-grade product.
