Description

Biosom DHEA spray from Metagenics may support the function of the adrenal gland. DHEA serves as a precursor for the formation of sex hormones testosterone and estrogen. Liquid and capsule forms tend to yield poor absorption rates and overall bioavailability. This liposomal spray formulation absorbs in the mouth cavity for maximum absorption and effectiveness.

• Provides 5 mg of liposomal DHEA for superior bioavailability
• Supports the function of the adrenal gland
• Supports the production of estrogen and testosterone
• Designed to provide nutritional support to those of advanced age and others with specific conditions which have resulted in a sex hormone deficiency
• Mouth spray bypasses digestive system for improved absorption rates

DHEA and the Adrenal Gland

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone of the human body which is naturally synthesized in the adrenal glands. Though it is not contained in any food sources, it can be produced synthetically from compounds found in yams and soy. There is much to be discovered about the potential benefits of synthetic DHEA supplementation. What’s certain is that DHEA is integral to the function of the adrenal gland which is also responsible for producing testosterone and estrogen. In fact, DHEA is considered a precursor to the formation of these crucial sex hormones.

The production of DHEA, testosterone, and estrogen all decline with advanced age. This decline is thought to be a factor in a number of health concerns which tend to arise with old age. While DHEA, similar to other hormonal supplements, has very poor bioavailability, it can be improved dramatically in formulations which are designed to bypass the digestive tract. This spray absorbs into the highly porous tissues of the mouth cavity where its contents are delivered directly to the blood. In addition, the DHEA in the formula is liposomally encapsulated to support penetration of the blood brain barrier, making this the most effective and bioavailable DHEA supplement on the market.
