Twinlab is one of the first companies in the world to market this
incredible new supplement. 7-Keto DHEA was developed by expert researchers
at the University of Wisconsin. Found in many body tissues, 7-Keto DHEA is a naturally occurring metabolite derived from DHEA. It is, in fact, an improved,
more potent form of DHEA. But most importantly, it cannot be converted to active androgens (testosterone) and estrogens. As part of an exercise program,
7-Keto DHEA may improve lean body mass by reducing cortisol (a stress hormone that is immune suppressive and catabolic) and increasing testosterone- to-cortisol ratios, enabling the body to build muscle in a growth-promoting environment* 7-Keto DHEA also enhances thermogenesis And of course, a
huge benefit of 7-Keto FUEL is the power of Twinlab's expertise and reputation. This product is carefully manufactured with stringent quality control, assuring correct potencies and outstanding product freshness.
summary of current DHEA Research
Research at major institutions has revealed that high levels of DHEA in
our bodies may be the key to vitality, resistance to disease, weight
control, and slowing down the aging process. Over 40,000 studies and
articles on DHEA have been undertaken. Here are summaries of some of the
findings.
1.AIDS - In an article in the Journal of Infectious Diseases (November,
1991), researcher William Regelson demonstrated that people with HIV
virus do not seem to develop full blown AIDS until their adrenal output
of DHEA drops. Dr. Regelson found that HIV-positive men with low DHEA
levels had double the risk of getting full blown AIDS compared to those
with normal DHEA levels.
The prestigious Harvard Health Letter published an article entitled
"DHEA Gets Respect", in July, 1994. The article reported that DHEA added
to vaccines helped older test mice develop the same vigorous antibodies
as young mice. Richard Hodes, head of the National Institute on Aging,
called these results "extremely interesting and potentially important."
2.ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - The Alzheimer's patients studies by Dr. C. R.
Merril of the Laboratory of Biochemical Genetics at the National
Institute o Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland, showed DHEA levels 48%
lower than the control group of non-Alzheimer's patients. We know that
DHEA is a precursor building block of estrogen. In April, 1994,
Prevention Magazine quoted Annlia Paganini-Hill, professor of preventive
medicine at the University of Southern California, as saying that
increased estrogen may be related to a decrease in the risk of
developing Alzheimer's in women.
3.BREAST CANCER - In a large popuIation study conducted by British
researchers on the island of Guernsey, it was discovered that women with
DHEA blood levels less than 10% of the normally expected amount for
their age group all developed breast cancer and died of the disease.
Other researchers picked up on this observation and gave DHEA to rats
that had been inbred to develop breast cancer. Predictably the DHEA
blocked all breast cancer. Dr. Arthur Schwartz, a researcher at
Philadelphia's Temple University, found that women with breast cancer
have lower DHEA levels and concurrent increase of an enzyme called G6PD
(glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase), which is blocked by DHEA.
4.CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE - A 100 microgram per deciliter increase in
DHEA sulfate concentration corresponded with a 48% reduction in
mortality for any reason. The natural level of DHEA sulfate was measured
and those individuals with higher DHEA sulfate levels lived Ionger and
have a much lower risk of heart disease. This was the result of a study
of 242 men aged 50 to 79 over a 12 year period. The study was conducted
by medical doctor Elizabeth Barrett-Connor at the University of
California and reported in The New England Journal of Medicine (1986).
An unrelated study at Johns Hopkins in 1988 demonstrated that rabbits
with severe arteriosclerosis experienced a 60% reduction in plaque size
when treated with DHEA.
5.FAT LOSS WITHOUT DIETING - Dr. Schwartz also noted that DHEA is a very
effective anti-obesity agent because it blocks the G6PD fat-producing
enzyme. DHEA increases the body's ability to transform food into energy,
and not only burns off excess fat, but also prevents fat from
accumulating in the first place. In a 1977 study Terrence Yen, a
bio-chemist at Eli Lilly, found that when DHEA is fed to obese mice,
their weight drops significantly even without any other change in diet
or exercise.
6.LIFE EXTENSION - Other studies showed that when DHEA was fed to mice
it increased their life expectancy by a third. The treated mice seemed
younger and had a lower incidence of the typical diseases of aging. It
reduced the risk of breast, colon, and lung cancer in mice. Other
studies have found that DHEA can reduce the risk of liver, skin, and
lymphatic tissue cancers.
7.MEMORY LOSS - Increasing DHEA in elderly patients appears to improve
memory function. research by medical doctor Eugene Roberts at City of
Hope Medical Center conducted on 31 elderly volunteers indicated that
the volunteers who took DHEA experienced less memory loss than
volunteers who were given a placebo. At the New York University School
of Medicine, psychiatrist Kenneth Bonnet reported that DHEA replacement
therapy on test mice resulted in better memory. When Dr. Bonnet treated
middle aged and old mice with DHEA, their retention and recall skills,
which earlier had been much lower than those of the young mice, now
increased to the same levels as in the young mice.
