DHEA, a natural hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, is being touted as the fabled "fountain of youth." Over 2,500 published research papers document the healthful benefits of DHEA. A recent report concluded that DHEA will improve the quality of life over a longer period and will postpone some of the unpleasant effects of aging, such as fatigue and muscle weakness. The report also found that those who took DHEA supplements slept better, had more energy, and were better equipped to handle stress compared to non-DHEA users.

Linked To Youthful Resilience

DHEA is one of the body's key hormones which helps to intercoordinate the complex endocrine system. DHEA appears to be linked to the healthful resilience of youth. By age 21, the adrenal glands produce abundant levels of DHEA: these levels peak around age 25 to 28. By age 40, DHEA levels are half of what they were at age 21. DHEA levels continue to decline steadily; by age 70, DHEA levels are 10% to 15% of the peak levels. Elderly people sometimes have virtually no DHEA. Extremely low DHEA levels are commonly seen in those with chronic disease regardless of age.
