Hormones - Pregnenolone
Pregnenolone is most notably recognized for its tremendous memory enhancing properties. Many studies show that pregnenolone may be a powerful adversary against such age-related cognitive diseases as Alzheimer's and may be an important agent against age-associated cognitive decline.
Nicknamed the grandmother hormone, pregnenolone is a precursor to DHEA, which in turn can convert to testosterone, estrogen and progesterone. It is a steroid manufactured from cholesterol and is produced in the brain and the adrenal cortex. It works to keep the brain functioning at peak capacity. Its levels are highest in the brain and studies have shown that it enhances many of our mental functions. Pregnenolone is to the brain what other hormones are to the body.
New and exciting research suggests that pregnenolone works as a cellular repairer, particularly in the brain and nerve tissue, and it protects cerebral function by guarding against neuronal injury. Pregnenolone is to the brain what other hormones are to the body. In countless studies, pregnenolone has been shown to reverse age-related deficiencies in spatial memory performance and to have protective effects on memory in different models of amnesia.
Possible Side Effects:
To date there are no reported significant adverse effects. However, pregnenolone may be converted to steroids such as DHEA that may cause acne, particularly in women. There are no reported drug, nutritional supplement, food or herb interactions to date.
Administration:
Pregnenolone is generally administered by capsule, however it can be taken in a cream or gel form as well. It is generally taken in doses ranging from 10-100 mg per day. Since pregnenolone is so quickly converted to other hormones in the body it is difficult to accurately measure, therefore it is typically replaced as a person ages with 25mg to 50mg per day.
Frequently Asked Questions:
- What changes will I notice? Some people do report an improvement in their memory.
- Can pregnenolone be measured by a blood test? Yes it can, however it is difficult to get an accurate measurement because it converts to other hormones so quickly.
