PRODUCT FAQ

DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and liver and can be converted to both male and female hormones. DHEA levels typically peak at about 20 years of age and decline rapidly after age 25.
Q. How is DHEA 50 different from other DHEA supplements?

Q. Is DHEA 50 NSF International certified?
No. However, DHEA 50 is independently tested by NSF International. NSF policy prohibits full certification with use of the NSF logo for any athletic banned substance, including DHEA. DHEA 50 test results are available upon request.
Q. Does DHEA 50 have side effects?
Possibly. DHEA 50 is considered safe for most people when taken in doses of 100 mg or less for limited time periods. DHEA is a hormone that can have side effects at higher doses. Side effects may include acne, oily skin, facial hair growth, hair loss, stomach upset, or decreased HDL cholesterol levels.
For certain health conditions, DHEA may be recommended in higher doses and should be taken under the guidance and supervision of a healthcare provider.

Adults who have been diagnosed with any hormone-related cancer, such as breast or prostate cancer, should not take DHEA 50. Those with diabetes should not take DHEA 50 without approval from their health care provider. DHEA 50 should not be taken by anyone under the age of 18.
Q. Can I take DHEA 50 with other nutritional supplements?

If you have questions about the supplements that you are taking, please speak with your healthcare team.
