Pregnenolone
Sometimes called the "mother of all hormones," pregnenolone is a steroid hormone synthesized from cholesterol by the adrenal glands and our nervous system. Though its function in the body is still being studied, it is clear that pregnenolone is responsible for mediating the production of our other hormones, helping regulate all our hormonal well-being. For this reason, it is essential that pregnenolone supplementation, like all hormone therapies, be closely monitored by a physician. As pregnenolone may affect your body's own hormone production, self-administering could make it difficult to maintain proper hormonal balance.
In addition to playing a vital role in overall hormonal production, studies indicate that pregnenolone may assist with:
- Enhancing memory
- Improving moods
- Increasing energy
- Knowledge absorption
- Stress reduction
- Aiding sleep
- Minimizing PMS & menopausal symptoms
- Increased skin hydration
- Anti-inflammation/arthritis
