Anabolic Hormones: DHEA, Cortisol, and Growth Hormone The majority of both men and women feel an improved sense of well-being while on the DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone), including better sleep, increased energy, improved ability to handle stress, and a more relaxed feeling. The most amazing finding was that some of their chronic joint pains and immobility improved. DHEA also helps connective tissue deficiency by stimulating immune function. DHEA reverses the negative effects that cortisone and other glucocorticosteroids have on suppressing the immune system.
It is important to realize that
the
primary event in the start of postmenopausal osteoporosis is the loss of
collagen. Since
testosterone builds bone collagen it most likely builds collagen in other
places like connective tissues. This is why growth hormone (IGF-1) and
testosterone are so important because they have the most stimulatory effects
on collagen and bone production. This is why osteoporosis is very rare in
males. |
