Ingredients explained
Pregnenolone
Pregnenolone serves as a precursor for multiple steroid hormones and may influence neural signaling and membrane function in the brain.
Caution: May affect hormone balance; avoid if pregnant, nursing, under 18, or if you have hormone-sensitive conditions without professional guidance.
DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone)
DHEA is converted in the body to androgens and estrogens, which may influence energy, mood, and aspects of healthy aging.
Caution: May alter sex hormone levels and cause effects like acne or irritability; discuss use if you have prostate concerns, heart disease, or low HDL.
How they work together
Pregnenolone provides an upstream substrate for the synthesis of several steroid hormones, while DHEA sits further downstream and converts into sex hormones. Together they offer layered support across the hormone pathway that may be relevant as endogenous production declines with age.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Not for those under 18. Do not use if pregnant or nursing. Talk to a healthcare professional before use if you have or have a family history of prostate cancer, prostate enlargement, heart disease, or low HDL cholesterol, or if you use any dietary supplement, prescription, or over-the-counter drug. Do not exceed the recommended serving; higher intake may cause serious adverse effects. Possible side effects include acne, hair loss, facial hair growth in women, aggressiveness, irritability, and increased estrogen levels. Stop use and contact a healthcare professional if you experience rapid heartbeat, dizziness, blurred vision, or similar symptoms.
Who should be cautious: People with hormone-sensitive conditions, prostate concerns, heart conditions, or low HDL cholesterol, and those on medications or other supplements, should consult a healthcare provider before use.

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.
