Pharmaceutical companies wish they could patent
First pregnenolone is a steroidal hormone manufactured by the body. It is a precursor and synthesized in the adrenal glands, liver, skin,testicles, ovaries and [depending on the sex of the person taking it]. Almost all hormones use this as a precursor, dhea, progesterone, testosterone, estrogen, and cortisol. Its side effects are minimal, you should check on those first. In studies, it has dramatically increased memory, as well as being a "feel good" hormone, studies say,and it is also known to improve mood and reduce stress. According to articles written about this supplement,the pharmaceutical companies would love to patent this, and heavily market it, of course being a natural product, they can't. Life Extension products sold by Amazon are designed to keep the human body working the way it should. This is the only product of theirs that I take, and for me it gives me back some of what age had taken away, I just feel better. I know when I'm feeling good, and if it's because of this product, I'll continue to take it. Since all medication and supplements don't work the same for everyone please check medical and supplemental websites to confirm and verify the statements. It works great for me and I hope it works just as well for you.
UPDATE- My wife for years has always been under a lot of stress, like women are today, worrying about so much a lot to do and not enough time, bills to get paid on time, sometimes a job and then dinner at night, take care of the kids etc. and etc.
Slowly I first began to notice a little more optimism in her voice and the way she acted, sleeping much better most nights.
