Remedi's DHEA 25mg Micronized for better absorption. DHEA is a hormone produced chiefly by the adrenal glands. The testes, ovaries, and brain can also make DHEA. As the most prevalent adrenal steroid in the body, DHEA serves as a precursor to the human sex steroid hormones, testosterone and estrogen. Cholesterol is the starting material used to make all steroid hormones in the body. In the adrenal glands, cholesterol is converted to pregnenolone, and pregnenolone is converted into DHEA and other sex hormones, including the female hormones estrogen and progesterone, and the male hormone testosterone.
