Having The Proper Amount Of DHEA Is
Essential For Peak Fitness!
Found naturally in the body, DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) usually
reaches peak levels in early adulthood, then steadily decreases every year
afterward. Natrol DHEA contains the highest quality of this hormonal precursor
available in supplement form. Making sure you use the proper amount of DHEA is
essential for best results. Each Natrol DHEA tablet contains 25 mg of this
hormonal precursor, precisely verified by the High Pressure Liquid
Chromatography (HPLC) technique.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Does it metabolize to testosterone?

No

What are the side effects?
Oiliness of the skin, acne, moodiness,
irritability, fatigue. Decrease dosage or stop taking if these side effects
occur.
Why can't it be taken with birth control?

estrogen and testosterone and could interfere with hormone therapy.
Is it necessary to start taking DHEA in the lowest dose for several weeks?
No. An individual can begin with 25mg. Please consult your physician
first.
What is the source of your DHEA?
The starting material is derived
from wild yam root. It must have a Diosgenin (phytochemical*) content of 5% or
above. It goes through several chemical reactions in the lab to yield a product
that is at least 99.5% DHEA.
Is it organic or natural?
Although it is manufactured, it is
"nature-identical". That means that the body treats it the same way as it does
DHEA that is produced within the body.
How do I know there are no contaminants?
The product is tested for
impurities using the HPLC method (high pressure liquid chromatography)
Is it pharmaceutical grade?
Yes.
What is the function of DHEA in the body?
It is converted into
many other hormones like testosterone and estrogen.
Can I take this if I'm in my 20's or 30's?
We recommend that you
have your DHEA levels checked before you begin taking this product, particularly
if you are under 40. DHEA levels don't tend to decrease until after the age of
40.
If I take DHEA & I don't really need it, is that a bad thing to
do?
If someone takes DHEA without needing it, it can potentially throw
off hormone levels which is the reason why we stress the importance of having
your DHEA levels checked before using this product.
Is it vegetarian?
Yes. It is a vegetarian tablet.
