Pregnenolone serves as a steroidal precursor that can be converted into hormones such as progesterone, DHEA and others, which may influence stress response, cognition and overall hormone balance.
Caution: Not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding and may interact with hormone-sensitive conditions; monitor for mood or sleep changes as hormone precursors can affect these areas.
DHEA is a prohormone that can convert to androgens and oestrogens, which may influence energy, mood and aspects of healthy ageing.
Caution: Not suitable for those under 18 or during pregnancy or breastfeeding; consult a healthcare professional if you have hormone-sensitive conditions or take medicines, as DHEA may affect hormone levels and lipid markers.
Pregnenolone sits upstream in steroid hormone pathways and may provide broad substrate for hormone production, while DHEA is further downstream and can convert to sex hormones; together they offer layered hormonal precursors that may complement each other in supporting age-related hormonal needs.
Label Warning: Not for individuals under 18. Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional before use if you have or have a family history of prostate cancer, prostate enlargement, heart disease, or low HDL, or if you are using any other supplements, prescription medicines, or over-the-counter medicines. Do not exceed the recommended serving; higher intake may cause serious adverse effects. Possible side effects may include acne, hair loss, facial hair growth in women, aggressiveness, irritability, and increased oestrogen levels. Stop use and seek medical help immediately if you experience rapid heartbeat, dizziness, blurred vision, or similar symptoms.
Who should be cautious: People with hormone-sensitive conditions, a history of prostate issues, heart concerns, or low HDL, and those using other medicines or supplements may need extra caution. Older adults with multiple medicines may also wish to discuss this with a healthcare professional.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if seal is broken.
After our thirties, prohormone levels can drop dramatically. Help replenish healthy levels with Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone.
So what is pregnenolone? It is a precursor – that is, a substance from which another is formed. In this case, it is used to form several hormones that are involved with mental and physical wellbeing. Pregnenolone may support neuronal health, mental sharpness and physical vitality.
We have combined pregnenolone with DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), another precursor hormone that gets converted into oestrogen and testosterone, for a formula that packs a powerful punch for healthy ageing, both physically and mentally. DHEA shows promise for supporting the menopause journey by promoting healthy levels of important hormones.
Both pregnenolone and DHEA are considered neurosteroids – steroids manufactured in the brain as opposed to elsewhere in the body – and as such may contribute to brain and cognitive health over the ageing process. They may also have neuroprotective properties, aid a healthy stress response and support a balanced mood.
Since both DHEA and pregnenolone levels drop dramatically as we get older, supporting hormone levels plays a large role in healthy ageing and longevity. Protect your healthspan with Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone.
As a food supplement, take one veggie capsule per day with water.
