DHEA
Prototype Nutrition
Overview
Prototype Nutrition DHEA provides the hormone precursor DHEA, which has demonstrated effectiveness in certain populations, particularly postmenopausal women, for hormone balance and symptom relief. The effectiveness in younger individuals or for broad anti-aging claims is less consistent. The formulation uses Hydroxypropyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin to enhance absorption, which is a positive for bioavailability.
The Good
May help support healthy hormone levels, particularly in postmenopausal women.
Could alleviate symptoms of postmenopause, such as vaginal atrophy and improved sexual function.
Potential for slight increases in lean body mass and decreases in fat mass in older men.
The Bad
Exact dosage of DHEA per 1mL serving is not disclosed, making it impossible to verify effective dosing.
Can significantly alter hormone levels, leading to potential side effects like acne, hair growth, or voice changes.
Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or individuals under 18.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking hormone support, those with DHEA deficiencies (under medical guidance)
Skip If: You are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, have a hormone-sensitive condition, or are taking medications without consulting a doctor.
