After our thirties, prohormone levels can drop dramatically. Help replenish healthy levels with Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone.
So what is pregnenolone? It is a precursor—that is, a substance from which another is formed. In this case, it is used to form several hormones that are involved with mental and physical well-being. Pregnenolone may support neuronal health, mental sharpness and physical vitality.
We have combined pregnenolone with DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), another precursor hormone that gets converted into estrogen and testosterone, for a formula that offers a powerful one-two punch for healthy aging, both physically and mentally. DHEA shows promise for supporting the menopause journey by promoting healthy levels of important hormones.
Both pregnenolone and DHEA are considered neurosteroids—steroids manufactured in the brain as opposed to elsewhere in the body—and as such may contribute to brain and cognitive health over the aging process. They may also have neuroprotective properties, aid a healthy stress response and support a balanced mood.
Since both DHEA and pregnenolone levels drop dramatically as we get older, supporting hormone levels plays a large role in healthy aging and longevity. Protect your healthspan with Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone.

FAQ
- How does DHEA work in the body?
DHEA is a hormone naturally produced by the adrenal glands that serves as a precursor to other hormones. The body converts DHEA into hormones as needed to support normal endocrine function, healthy aging, and overall wellness. - Who may benefit from a DHEA supplement?
Because natural DHEA production gradually declines with age, some adults choose to supplement their intake as part of a healthy aging routine. Consult your healthcare provider before using DHEA, especially if you have a hormone-sensitive condition, are pregnant or nursing, or take hormone-related medications. - How is pregnenolone different from DHEA?
Pregnenolone and DHEA are both naturally occurring hormone precursors, but they serve different roles. Pregnenolone is produced earlier in the hormone pathway and can be converted into DHEA and other hormones, while DHEA is one step further along and serves as a precursor to sex hormones. - Can men and women both take pregnenolone?
Yes. Pregnenolone is naturally produced by both men and women and may be used by either as part of a healthy aging regimen. Because pregnenolone influences hormone pathways, consult your healthcare provider before use if you have a hormone-sensitive condition, are pregnant or nursing, or take hormone-related medications. - Why combine DHEA and pregnenolone?
DHEA and pregnenolone are often combined because they support complementary stages of the body's natural hormone pathways. Together, they provide nutritional support for healthy aging and normal endocrine function as part of a balanced lifestyle. - Is Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone Complex suitable for special diets?
Yes. Swanson DHEA & Pregnenolone Complex is suitable for vegan and vegetarian lifestyles and is made with non-GMO ingredients. This product is not formulated or certified to be dairy-free or gluten-free, so individuals with dietary sensitivities should review the ingredient list before use.
