BioSom
Metagenics
Overview
BioSom's effectiveness is primarily tied to its main ingredient, DHEA. While DHEA can increase sex hormone levels, particularly in postmenopausal women, the overall efficacy for broader claims like cognitive function, mood, and general well-being is not consistently supported by strong clinical evidence, especially in a preventative or anti-aging context. The 5mg per serving of DHEA is at the lower end of clinically studied doses (typically 25-200 mg/day, often 50-100 mg/day). The liposomal delivery may improve absorption, but its impact on clinical outcomes for this specific dosage requires more research.
The Good
Utilizes liposomal delivery for potential enhanced DHEA absorption.
From Metagenics, a brand known for practitioner-grade supplements, suggesting a level of quality control.
Non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegetarian formulation.
The Bad
Contains DHEA, a potent hormone precursor with significant, potentially serious side effects.
Explicit and extensive warnings and contraindications on the label, highlighting inherent risks.
Low DHEA dose (5mg) per serving compared to most clinically studied effective doses for systemic effects.
Is it for you?
