| DHEA Complex for Natural Male Enhancement June 11, 2010 | |
| DHEA Complex Review Summary ------------------------------------------------------ DHEA complex is a supplement designed to raise testosterone using the hormone DHEA and a couple of additional herbs. Raising testosterone levels has several applications, but most commercial products are designed to help burn muscle and/or increase sex drive. Of course, studies have shown that this approach works better on some people than others. It may also be worth considering that some herbs can produce similar results without the drawbacks that extra hormones can carry. Ingredients At A Glance ------------------------------------------------------ DHEA, a hormone that has been shown to raise testosterone levels; Tribulus Terrestris, an herb that has been shown to enhance the effects of the body’s natural testosterone; Moomiyo, which has been seriously researched in Russia for many years and may help to regulate neuro-hormones; and Vitamin E. Ingredients In Focus ------------------------------------------------------ Since DHEA is a precursor to testosterone, it is often used by athletes to enhance performance. While its effectiveness as an anabolic agent still lacks long-term research, some studies have shown that it may help to reduce body fat percentage. Meaning, participants in the studies lost body fat and gained lean muscle. However, other studies have yielded inconclusive results. As mentioned above, athletes have been drawn to DHEA hoping for an anabolic boost. However, some believe that it would have to be consumed at much higher levels than can be found in the average supplement in order to have an anti-catabolic effect. Since DHEA levels decline with age, older people tend to experience the most noticeable results. Although studies of the effects of DHEA on the elderly did not result in significant weight loss, participants did report more energy and greater mental clarity. Lifestyle ------------------------------------------------------ Testosterone levels tend to decline with age in men, making a supplement like DHEA desirable. After all, it is no secret that weight loss becomes more difficult in later life, and increasing testosterone levels can help to support the metabolism, as well as maintain bone strength and lean muscle. It may also help to improve overall energy, which, combined with increased sexual vigor, may improve erectile function. Of course, too much testosterone can lead to unpleasant side effects. Fortunately, although Tribulus Terrestris has been shown to increase hormone levels, they generally remain within the normal range. Since DHEA is itself a hormone, it may increase levels above normal. Positives ------------------------------------------------------ •Contains Tribulus Terrestris •Posts clear usage warnings Negatives ------------------------------------------------------ •Website does not post testimonials •No free trial sample available •Contains hormones in the form of DHEA Final Thoughts ------------------------------------------------------ For older men who are experiencing a decline in testosterone, DHEA Complex may help to regain energy and strength. However, some doctors warn that taking supplementary hormones can cause side effects to occur, but herbal supplements like Tribulus pose less of a risk in this respect. In addition to Tribulus, the herb Yohimbe has been shown to improve cardiovascular health as well as treat erectile dysfunction. Those who prefer not to take DHEA may want to consider an herbal supplement that increases testosterone and works to dialate blood vessels. Many proven formulas exist on the market.
