Most people are familiar with the sex hormones estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone, which are replaced in traditional HRT (hormone replacement therapy). Less well known, but just as important to overall health, are the Hormones of Youth: DHEA, growth hormone, and melatonin. For optimum wellness, a hormonal balance must be maintained.
The most abundant steroid hormone in the human body-DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone-is primarily produced by the adrenal glands and eventually converted into male and female hormones (androgens and estrogens) by your cells. Although it is a precursor to other hormones, it has now been shown to have its own physiological effects.
