Natural Hormones
Substances that originate in an organ or gland, in whole or part, and
is
conveyed through the blood to another part of the body stimulating it
by chemical action to increase functional activity or to increase
secretion of
another hormone.
They regulate or control vital body functions including growth,
development and
repair
and maintain the activities of all vital organs
and their specific functions.
7-Keto
the metabolite of DHEA is a natural, non-steroidal molecule
that is produced in the body from DHEA.
This metabolite is chemically different from DHEA and cannot convert
back into DHEA
in the body. Studies indicate that 7-Keto may be useful in promoting
weight loss
without the use of stimulants while following an exercise program and
healthful diet.
DHEA
the most abundant steroid produced by the adrenal glands.
It travels to all the cells where it is converted into androgens and
estrogens.
These hormones regulate fat and mineral metabolism, energy levels,
endocrine function and reproductive function. DHEA's conversion to these
hormones
is a function of age, sex, and individual biochemistry.
DHEA levels in the body peaks around age 25 and declines steadily.
