COMMENTS FROM YOUNG LIVING
PD 80/20 is a dietary supplement formulated to help maximize internal health and support the endocrine system. It contains Pregnenolone and DHEA, two substances produced naturally by the body that decline with age. Pregnenolone is the key precursor for the body’s production of estrogen, DHEA, and progesterone, and it also has an impact on mental acuity and memory. DHEA is involved in maintaining the health of the cardiovascular and immune systems.
LET’S LOOK CLOSELY AT INGREDIENTS
Pregnenolone: A precursor hormone that increases the production of all hormones in the body such as progesterone, estrogen, and cortisol. It supports fatigue, increases energy, supports memory, supports motivation, helps increase libido, and may help improve mood swings.
According to a study published in 2009 by Marx, Keefe, and Buchanan, in Neuropsychopharmacology titled “Proof-of-concept trial with neurosteroid pregnenolone targeting cognitive and negative symptoms in schizophrenia,” they found that patients with schizophrenia saw improvements with their symptoms when they used pregnenolone for eight weeks.
DHEA: A precursor hormone that helps with cognition, healthy emotions, libido, and muscle and bone mass. It may also help with vaginal dryness.
