EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
Dietary supplement. DHEA, the most abundant steroid in the blood of adult humans, peaks in early adulthood and declines with age. Animal research indicates that 7-Keto, a natural metabolite of DHEA, is more active inducer of thermogenic enzymes than DHEA. Research on humans has shown that supplementation with 7-Keto is well tolerated. It is not converted to estrogens or androgens, a point of concern for many people (These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease). Suitable for vegetarians and Hypoallergenic: contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, corn, soy or wheat. Contains no sugar, starch, salt, preservatives, or artificial color, flavor or fragrance.

7-Keto Dhea by gabalot 5 Stars
October 13, 2009
My review is for 7-Keto DHEA in general. I have used another brand and since there is not argument that Source Naturals is a good brand I wanted to state my opinion about this product. There are studies regarding DHEA both good and bad. The reason I like this product is that it states it cannot be metabolized into active estrogenic or androgenic sex hormones. When regular DHEA supplement has caused higher than normal levels of androgens and estrogens it theoretically may increase the risk of prostate, breast, ovarian and other hormone sensitive cancers. If somehow this adverse effect has been removed in the 7-Keto DHEA without harming the integrity of the product I am happy to try. DHEA is known to downregulate IL-6 which is a stress marker in the blood. That is not to say it reduces stress but might reduce the harmful effects of stress or chronic inflammation. For myself, I am sleeping better and don't have a lab in my house to study why that might be, but I think the DHEA 7 Keto might be helping.

I've looked at the research behind this product and a lot of it is inconclusive, DHEA has been proven to be great for restoring oxidative balance in people with diabetes but other than that the research is ongoing or inconclusive. Source naturals makes a lot of other products that are similar in price and are proven without a doubt to be good for you. Check out NKO caplets, it's deepwater krill oil but basically an improved version of basic fish oil, it's really good for your heart and brain and recent research shows that it can also improve mood.
