Higher Levels of DHEAS Associated with Better Cognitive Function

Women with naturally higher levels of the hormone precursor DHEAS were found to have better cognitive function than women with lower levels.

DHEA is a steroid precursor, which means that it is converted in the body to steroid hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. It is the most abundant circulating sex steroid in women.

The researchers speculate that there may be a number of explanations for their findings, including direct action of DHEA and DHEAS, DHEAS being a marker of androgen and estrogen production in women, or simply DHEA and DHEAS levels being markers of general good health.

Read details on this DHEAS cognitive function study.
