DHEA & HGH
August 4, 2008 |
 DHEA, like human growth hormone (HGH) is produced by the pituitary gland.
The manufacture of DHEA starts in the pituitary axis, which releases ACTH (adrenocorticotrophic hormone). ACTH signals the adrenal glands to manufacture DHEA from cholesterol. It is released int othe bloodstream as DHEAS (DHEA sulfate). Dubbed the “mother of all steroids,” DHEA is the most abundant steroid in the human body and is involved in the manufacture of testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and corticosterone. The decline of DHEA with age parallels that of human growth hormone (HGH), so that by age sixty-five, your body makes only 10 to 20 percent what it did at age twenty. Many anti-aging specialists believe that replacing DHEA in later life is beneficial.
