DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is the most abundant steroid in the blood stream produced mainly in the adrenal glands. DHEA is the biochemical building blocks for the synthesis of other hormones. DHEA may be used for immune system dysfunction, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, arthritis, anti-aging and autoimmune diseases. DHEA is at the peak production in the body at age 20, with blood levels declining with age.  At age 80, DHEA production is only about 5% that of a 20 year old.  DHEA converts or stimulate estrogens, testosterone, progesterone, cortisone and many other steroid hormones.  Possible therapeutic applications of DHEA supplementation include the prevention and/or treatment of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis and arthritis.
