The loss of HGH as we age is similar to the loss of DHEA(adrenal hormone).

At the age of 65 the level of DHEA is 10 to 20 per cent of the level aged twenty.

The level of DHEA and HGH are closely linked with a number or diseases which occur
as we age.

Supporters of DHEA believe it improves the immune system against infection and reuces age related diseases.

In a study in which small quantities of DHEA given to mice reduced amnesia and improved their long term memory.

It seems to stay youthful your levels of this hormone need to be kept at the
youthful level.

Further studies with animals showed a significant increase in life span.

Using 71 women and 13 men aged forty to seventy given 50 mg of DHEA for
3 months and a placebo for 3 months showed a rise to youthful levels of
DHEA.

Interestingly it was found that levels of HGH did not change during the
twenty four hour measurement.
Maybe the anti aging advantages are due to the HGH-IGF-I system.

It is important you consult your medical professesional before you take supplements of DHEA.
