I'm 43, 5"11 and currently 164 pounds. Before DHEA I was 196 pounds with no sex drive, no morning erections, low T, depressed with high cholesterol. Despite having low T my Doc wouldn't give me TRT. I started cycling DHEA 150 MG first thing in the morning - 3 months on and 1 month off. My stomach is now flat with visible abs. I'm more vascular than ever. This might not sound like much to some people but I can toss a 55 pound truck tire tire over my head with one movement. Doctors don't care. Take your life back.
Pal I recommend some blood work. You need to run total estradiol. I 200 per cent guarantee its off the charts! I 'm from the medical industry. (Reference Lab). 150 mg way too much! More is not better and doesn't make you testosterone go up that much but its does aromatize like crazy. I have used it 30 years!
So how much is good for men over 50?
You get about 3 to 3.5 points of free testosterone with 25 mg of micronized dhea. If you use 50mg you get about 4 3/4 of free testosterone. The problem is without an aromatase inhibitor your estradiol will be too high.
I'm 27 and 3 years ago my testosterone was 322. Got my blood work this week, its 400 for total testosterone. Free is 129 I have no sex drive, no morning erections. Doctor won't refer me to a urologist. He said my T levels are normal. Also have depression and anxiety. A1C is 6.1 which is prediabetic. Should I start with 50 mg of DHEA?
If it’s banned in Australia it must be beneficial.
Banned here in Canada also. I get online no problem
@Cookie Monster dhea has no liver issues
@Cookie Monster Are you a doctor if not I would not talk . My client is a Medical doctor so also say 25 to 50 grams is the dose for dhea and also says no liver issues .
@Cookie Monster I feel a deep aching pulse in my no-no spot when I think about you
@Cookie Monster you took a bottle per day?
I have been taking DHEA. I must say it truly works! I have more muscle and less fat. I swear by this suppliment.
Em Kay r u still taking it if so how's it doing....if not...why?
Does it help with libido?
Em Kay well how old are you?
Lord Trump lmao
How old r u
I’ve been using DHEA on and off for years. It’s highly beneficial. I can tell when I need it. If I find I’m constantly fatigued, then the DHEA helps. Irritability and insomnia can be a side effect of it. To combat insomnia take it first thing in the morning. Or cycle off DHEA. It tends to be more beneficial for those who are older. 30’s and above. Especially 40’s and above though.
What dosage do you take? Thanks!
@@tonyrico9335 what I hear is 10mg per decade of age.
@@myronhensel thank you!
Does cheat block estrogen? I took DIM to block estrogen and it took away completely my libido and I have hip pain and stiffness.
I meant DHEA 😂
I'm a 47 year old female and have been taking it for a month and feel SO AMAZING! Im building muscle back no problem and finally starting to lose the 20 lbs i put on while in perimenopause!! I highly recommend it!!
@Cookie Monster i have been taking it now for 2 months. I alternate 10 mg then 20 mg. And 1 day a week I will take 50 mg to get an extra boost. I also take progesterone and tyrosine. I feel all of these have contributed to a massive improvement in my energy and well-being. But no, I dont personally know anyone taking it that long but there are a few on RUclips that have and testify to its benefits.
@@jenna338 do you take dim as well
@@brendadaviswilson9243 hi! I did take it for about a month or 2 with the dhea but couldn't take the headaches frankly. I'm also perimenopause and figured my estrogen will be lowering itself any day now anyhow. I also use progesterone cream.
@Cookie Monster really?
@Cookie Monster thank you! I appreciate the heads up! I dont have to take it as much anymore! I tale 20-30 mgs every 3 or 4 days. So hopefully thats not too much!
I never received added muscle mass by taking DHEA but it for burn up my belly fat quicker! Some ppl say DHEA doesn't help wit muscle mass or fat loss. However, from my own experience, it made lose aide in losing fat from my belly.
what does your belly look like now?
That also depends on ur age as to wheather your getting a benefit, i am 56 yrs of age and i 1st tried dhea when i was in my 30s and didnt get much from it but now that im at the age i am i tried it again at 200mg i am getting a benefit.
I totally agree, this is a great supplement especially for older guys. I’m 71 and take 100mg a day. It makes a difference I’m still lifting and I believe my health is and test is better than without it.
Which was more beneficial for you DHEA or the Tren?🤔
Lmaooo
can’t tell
if your serious
Creatine
@@thiclordjord1109 creatine is very good
you already know that
Actually any DHEA you take very rarely gets converted into testosterone in younger men, but apparently it's very potent for upping testosterone in women. From what I've seen it pretty much just normalizes your test levels.
exactly!
Also not true in older men ... it can be very beneficial for those over 55.
@@trader025 Yeah because older men have low T. It normalizes test levels, or somewhat anyway. I imagine TRT is still way better for older guys.
Pretty much test levels drop significantly from 30ish on....and I take DHEA just to keep money regulated. Not trying to look like a roid head who cant move
You. Can be born with low dhea and pregnenolone Also if u have a parasite, they can mess with hormone levels

I am on T-3 and T-4 and Trt which is now reading 1076 for Test.
Spring Valley DHEA on the side of the bottle it says made in China. You should at least get a tested brand from USA.
Best thing to do, Get a blood test and see your DHEA-S level first, Also it can and often does convert to Estrogen so check your level first before taking a supplement that could do more harm than good
Absolutely a Doctor should be consulted so as to see if it will be of benefit.

Hey @thomasdelaur do you recommend 7-Keto DHEA? If so, when should you take it? Love your videos, thanks man!
7 is a scam
since most of the people don't care about the other health benefits I will write about what most would care about DHEA. First of all we need to find an independent study on DHEA. For instance the study done in France with so many participants and researches. Why is it important? Because the result was published in a scientific magazine and Europe accepted DHEA as safe drug. The study was published in September 2000. According to the study; male participants got significant boost of DHEA-S. DHEA-S levels weren't accumulated in the body, but half life of DHEA-S is longer than DHEA. Not significant increase at E2 levels among males( which is the most potent estrogen that causes many problems) Significant increase at E1(this is the weaker kind of estrogen) but E1numbers became the same amount a healthy male would have during his early 20's(which means no adverse reaction) Not significant Test boost(but actually all males got around 15 percent Test boost that was considered as insignificant) Significant boost at ADG(this hormone is metabolite of DHT which gives boost to male characteristics and anti estrogen which means E1 boost even though wasn't that significant will be canceled) All the participants were sedentary. We know from other studies DHEA boosts DHT levels significantly and causes weight lose. So I wouldn't personally be concerned about estrogen levels but DHT levels(even though they don't exceed the healthy range some might be prone to hair loss) if it is combined with a healthy diet. Also DHEA-S is boosted in all studies around. DHEA-S itself a powerful hormone it itself increases even muscle growth. And other good news DHEA suppresses SHBG significantly that's why it boosts libido but also muscle growth because free testosterone will be boosted. Also just one human study without giving any information(that's why for me 2000 study is the main one because independent not funded buy any company or medical companies ) stated DHEA boosted just estrogen(they didn't even stated which kind) in that study all participants were obese which means with a metabolic disorder. We know for instance from dr Berg testosterone is very dependent on having healty liver. If someone is obese we can assume that person is having a fatty liver issue which will cause a estrogen conversion in the body. Using DHEA in a study among obese sedentary participants and concluding that it boosted estrogen levels same as expecting any anabolic steroid will turn someone into Jay Cutler without any exercise or diet.
Why take it when testosterone is highest? Wouldn't the body be .less. inclined to combine dhea and cholesterol when it sees less testosterone in the blood?
I've been lift constantly for 6mnths now and I'm 40 was skeptical about taking dhea I had bought some and let it sit on my counter for a couple months after trying testboosters for some trials with really no results I gave the dhea a shot wow I should have been taking it all along I lost 15lbs my muscle atrophy shot up in every muscle group I worked out in a 8wk period my hair grew thicker my facial hair grew in more just all around results it has worked for me so if your curious give it a shot you may get the same results
I'm always open to advice but if my body is low on dhea already due to my age and dhea is naturally in the body already then how ? Plz explain
Just 50mg cause I don't want to overdue it but I do feel like I could probably go to 100mg and be fine
If your muscle ATROPHY shot up that would be a reduction. Atrophy is muscle wasting. If you mean growth, that's HYPERTROPHY.
i know this is old, but if you have low T i would honestly just recommend going to an HRT/ TRT clinic and getting testosterone prescribed which is completely legal. the amount of side effects from low T as men age is pretty bad so i would get your levels checked.
So I have heard that I need a reputable source,how do I verify if its good DHEA supplier ?
My stomach got so bloated and gassy when I went into menopause. I have only been on DHEA for a little over a week and my stomach has gone down quite a bit and gas is gone, and I feel so much better and more energized. I actually got through a workout and didn't feel like I got hit by a truck the next day. I just have that good, soreness feeling like I used to get before menopause. And, I have lost 5 pounds already.
There are studies that show higher testosterone effects in women over men with DHEA, I'm not sure which studies Thomas is referring to here. Also, the levels testosterone is raised is very minimal, the effects more so leans on the utilization of testosterone we have - much of which comes from it's ability to lower SHBG levels.
Back on 25mg's of DHEA every.AM.
Was off it for a year, feeling down with little motivation.
Feeling Better.
thnx from egypt,,,from my experience with DHEA it makes u feel sleepy after 4hours from taking it,,but side effect is u cant sleep without taking it or u will get insomnia,,so my advice is u take it be4 sleeping time by 6 hours
This should be the definition of bro science
How so?
using dhea for me didn't do anything to my total or free testosterone levels (46 male). it did increase my dhea-s level taking it from 232 all the way to 384 in 3 months. biggest change for me? didn't get sick last winter, not even a sniffle even while working in a high covid environment.
Do you workout regularly?
@@zanemxguire i do. resistance training 3 days a week and 4-5 days on average jits.
@@benhartland4708 ohhh okay gotcha! Was just curious , because it would seem (to me) like DHEA, would have more of an affect on people who exercise. It is interesting to know that you didn’t get sick though!
@Cookie Monster two pumps of a topical dhea cream per day post morning shower BUT originally when i was on the lower side (232) i did two pumps in the morning and two in the evening for three months with taking every 4th week off so in reality it was a total of 9 weeks in those 3 months. i have since tapered off to only two pumps per day and that keeps me in the mid to late 300's. forgot to add, the brand i'm using is called Twist and it's 25mg per pump.
@@benhartland4708 IS DHEA bad for prostate?
Thomas! Loving my MagSRT! Hey if I take a DHEA supplement will it stop my body producing it naturally similar to exogenous testosterone would stop my body’s natural production?
I feel like it's definitely worth mentioning that DHEA is a banned substance when it comes to sports.
So that means it works!
Because it can be used in masking other agents so they specifically test for it
@@RangerLifts it's also banned because it's a hormone.... and taking exogenous hormones has always and will always be against the rules of any tested sport.
Hey I know this video is a bit old so maybe you could do an update on the effects for women? I know it is used for infertility and increases female libido.
just take very little. ive heard stories of womens voices deepening or growing body hair if they take too much.
Idk why but im skeptical of DHEA
it's a pro hormone
hey i'm fine no it’s not mr RUclips expert
@@captainamericaamerica8090 lmao
is it safe to take dhea every day?
Thomas answer this man great question
I heard it's best to cycle it. One month on, one month off.
My MD just put me on it daily 100mg bid for a month bc my level was real low. Then he said he would check in a month. As a RN, I trust & know my MD.
@@pinkbrisingr78 How did it go with DHEA? I just ordered some.
@@johnyracercat My levels came up some. Plus slight increase in energy. Not much to say honestly.
But would supplementing DHEA decrease your normal secretion of the hormone, as Testosterone supplementation does. I’ve been learning how to increase T /decrease estrogen by lowering cortisol etc etc but could we naturally increase DHEA in a similar way, as, this being the ‘precursor’ to these other hormones it is arguably more important to control. I don’t want to rely on supplements for the rest of my life, but is this the only answer, and..is it safe?
You should always cycle supplements in my opinion because you create tolerance
Following
Do month holyday
@@edward_adame this is like saying you build a tolerance to creatine. you build tolerances to stimulants not something that can regulate normal T levels. If you have low T levels you will always get the same effect given your body is deficient.
Thanks for the info
Nutrition is Important for DHEA Production ------
Healthy fat sources include coconut products, avocados, olive oil, nuts, seeds, & purified omega-3 fish oil supplements. Healthy protein sources to boost DHEA production include wild-caught fish, grass-fed red meat and free range chicken, turkey, and eggs.
People use DHEA as an anti-aging therapy and to improve physical performance. DHEA is also used to treat depression and symptoms of menopause.
Will this interrupt the benefits of intermediate fasting if I take it when I first wake up? Will is stop autophagy?
Sir Dhaichuri Capsules What is it given for? Does it work for the patient? Please let me know
This is not a well known topic of discussion but I've been taking DHEA since the early to mid 90s. The best one I found was produced by Prolabs but I don't think they make it anymore. My question to you Thomas is what do you think about Bulk Supplements DHEA in powder form?
There meds are trash. Bulk supplements has all the powder mostly from china. There based in las vegas but other then that made in china. Try useing lifesource naturals. Most of there meds are made in the u.s. with ingredients found in the states.
What brand are you currently taking? I wanna start soon 56 and need the help
Nutrabio 👍🏻 Check them out for some dhea.
Dhea is a prohormone that is much more complicated than what Thomas has explained in this video.

@@JuliopaintsLMFAO
Taking this
In the morning because that's when you wake up or specifically just works better that time of day? I ask this because I work nights and sleep during the day.
In the morning is when your testosterone peaks. Biggest pulse of it from the testes before you wake
Hello Thomas tank you for all deep informativo you have giving to us you are a true person, i have a question can i stack dhea with Dim and vitex to increanse progesterone in body or you do nos recomend vitex?
If you have low DHEA levels, as my blood levels indicated, this can be a great supplement. It made a huge difference in energy, strength and mood within a few days.
Will taking Dhea shut down or lower your natural testoterone production?
Yeah it’ll suppress it a little bit. You’ll need an estrogen blocker like arimistane combined with dim. Look for those ingredients in “test boosters.” Online or at a local supplement store that’s not gnc.
Thomas, I saw a recommendation to take this with zinc at bedtime as most T is produced at night and the his will help. So now I am confused.
It can cause insomnia if taken at night. If that happens try taking it in the morning instead.
I take mine with zinc to prevent aromatase (basically stops it from turning into estrogen)
How many milligrams of DHEA are u using and how much zinc?
Just ordered 100 mg capsules. Thinking of just splitting the capsules taking 50 mg to start. Going to use Tongkat Ali for an anti-aromatase with zinc. All good for Test boost.
DHEA lowers cortisol so it is really the best time to take it in the morning?
Will endogenous test levels be lowered when you stop taking it?
Do you take it with dim?
I watch a video that says men should always take equal amounts of dhea and dim so should I take both or just the dhea I’m 36 by the way
What's dim?
@@Mike_A005 Turning the lights down 😜
@Tommy Mottola Thanks!
Hello Thomas, have really gotten into fasting and still trying to gain lean muscle this past month. I have a question in regards to taking this on a fast day. I workout late after noon towards the end of a fast. You recommend taking in morning after workout.. will this break fast and so should I wait till evening to take?
Thanks
Tim
My recommendation is don't fast if you're trying to gain muscle. Only fast when you're trying to lose fat.
@@thammar1990 this!
@@thammar1990 @timwatch1 I gained a tremendous amount of muscle when I started fasting. Epecially when i fasted 18 to 20 hours 5 days a week. The hard part is making sure to get in enough calories, but the huge spike in HGH made building muscle SOOO much easier. Fasting is the only way to go to build lean but big muscle and lose fat at the same time In my opinion!
I would still say take this in the morning so it doesn't interfere with the body's natural rhythm and from what I understand, this shouldn't cause an insulin spike or knock you out of ketosis. Fasting is very beneficial but I've heard DHEA in the afternoon or evening can cause insomnia and our sleep is very important for health and muscle gain.
It does work, i have this awesome energy i've never really felt before. its not a jittery feeling but smooth and contained as if my body is regulating it in a normal way. I also take nacent iodine and magnesium, this combo is insane!

@@yehadfe9838 yes I gain some muscles but not something extreme, o don't know exactly how much belly fat but it was a lot for the shortness of time, I was flat before and I get a beer belly in a month. From what i read it might raises my estrogens too far that's why the acne also.

@@TzoHill of course I was working out, my diet was my everyday normal food the same with before i started the DHEA
@@Dim_the_Athenian well sounds like you probably had enough DHEA as it is. They say most people only get side effects when their DHEA was already optimal. 🤷🏽♂️

I've heard it's a good idea to take DIM with DHEA, but DIM will block estrogen.
Zinc too, I think
Dont take dhea its steroids
You do not want to block estrogen - it's a natural byproduct of testosterone production :)
because there's a risk of over production of estrogen that is why some say DIM will help.. However use it at moderate amounts.. Estrogen is still beneficial
Take 100mg, doing great first pill pop in the morning
Hey does dhea suppress natural testosterone?
no it doesn't. if you stop taking it it just gonna return to baseline.
Is DHEA the same as 7 keto DHEA? How do you feel about AMPK?
Dhea is not a supplement. It's legal hormonal therapy that hasn't been approved by the FDA. The shyt is poison and high amounts on the blood cause serious psychiatric problems and in the long run cause breast cancer. It has already been banned from the Olympics as they test for it.
I used it for 6 months in Progene and it ruined my life. Been in and out of doctors for the last 6 years because it it. When I was using it I got real sick and went to the hospital and they gave me corticosteroids and I got steroid induced psychosis because of it. I was completely manic for 1 month and had to go to the nut house for a few days and get put on meds. My muscle tissue, digestion, , mental state, and hormones have never been the same since.
@@gennarolombardi1067 it didn’t create the mania it exacerbated the mania you already had, look it up. In people with bipolar disorder, DHEA should be used with caution and only in low doses because it can exacerbate mania, irritability, and aggression.
7Keto was made for countries that dont allow DHEA without a prescription! I've heard the 7 Keto is nothing comparatively.
It also converts to DHT and estrogen. DHEA makes me feel great but gives me puffy nipples and makes my hair thin out....like 24 hrs after ingestion.
Bullshit stop spreading your bullshit. Fuckin real test (steroids) won't even do that after injecting it 24 hrs
Hammer Time Don’t get butt hurt. That’s because injectible testosterone takes a lot longer to absorb due to it being an oil suspension injected intramuscularly. DHEA is broken down almost immediately and the effects are noticeable a few hours after taking it.
@@drh2098 I'm not butt hurt and I don't need your non expertise to explain how anabolic steroids work. You can take 3 Anadrols which are a strong oral and your hair won't thin within a week let alone 24hrs. Your clueless.

@@hischransen8069 Denmark

Should I take DHEA in the morning before going to work or after I get home after a workout.
i believe he covered this in the video. unless you have blood work showing your testosterone is below average this will do nothing for you, it isn't like injecting steroids or anything.
I wanted to know if I take DHEA, ashwagandha, and DIM and then at any point stop will my body still be able to produce its natural amount of testosterone. I’m afraid of anything that boost test because I don’t want my body to stop producing it on its own, is that a risk with these supplements?
Cycle then dummy
I heard insulin decreases testosterone and human growth hormones.
So I SHOULD NOT take DHEA with a meal?
Hi Thomas, Here's a good question for you, what would you think of doing Intermittent Fasting (IF) and taking DHEA? Very interested in hearing your answer, thanks....BIG fan......love your videos!
Seo Ireland that's what I'm planning on doing. I have a lot of belly fat and I'm trying to trim that off and build muscle. Let me know if you have done it yet and how well it worked
good question. DHEA increases IGF growth factor leading which IF in itself does tremendously itself. Ask yourself "why" you would really need DHEA ? I would only take DHEA if you know or highly doubt you have low testosteron levels. I would never recommend to take it for loosing fat (IF in itself and caloric restriction much safer and effective.

Which to buy? Any brand better than others?
Do I have to get bloodwork’s done before starting DHEA 25 mg?
Im 18 just looking for some daily supplements to take for lifting would you recommend this or is it not effective at my age?
You may use it. But start at 10 mg a day and cycle it.. Have a break.. Some people say it will let ur body not produce testosterone if u suddenly stop it.. I mean hormone resistance.. U dont want that.. so cycle it ..

How do you cycle it? I was told by my Functional Medicine Doctor that you can shut off the bodies natural DHEA hormones if you dont cycle it. Then you'll be on it for life. Good yes, but can increase a pre tumor. So how do you suggest to cycle.
I was also told to take it at night.
Please advise Thomas
Probably like 3 months like any other steroids , and same time off .

For premenopausal women, it is converted into estrogen. Post menopausal women convert it into testosterone.
It's funny how people want to increase their DHEA levels and I am struggling lower it :))

Hi, do you take dhea yourself?
A search for DHEA on your website does not produce any articles as of Sept 2016.
i was thinking about taking it 6 months ago but the amazon reviews says it makes your hair thin.
yeah never ended up taking it.3 months after this comment i started the whole blending/juicing craze. got the results i was looking for. only supplement i really take regularly now is vit d followed by zinc. :)
Can assume that shift work affects when testosterone levels peak?
I'm 36, is it safe for me to take dhea?
Should you take this when on trt?
Are there different types of DHEA? For example synthetic and natural?
Dhea is not a supplement. It's legal hormonal therapy that hasn't been approved by the FDA. The shyt is poison and high amounts on the blood cause serious psychiatric problems and in the long run cause breast cancer. It has already been banned from the Olympics as they test for it.
I used it for 6 months in Progene and it ruined my life. Been in and out of doctors for the last 6 years because it it. When I was using it I got real sick and went to the hospital and they gave me corticosteroids and I got steroid induced psychosis because of it. I was completely manic for 1 month and had to go to the nut house for a few days and get put on meds. My muscle tissue, digestion, , mental state, and hormones have never been the same since.
@@gennarolombardi1067 what ???? Seriosuly bro what was you taking ?? How much was you taking and for how long?
@@AbdulKalam-qh8ue DHEA exacerbates mania, it would not create it from someone who already did not have it. The user above would already have had issues and DHEA exposed it.
Why would you take it when test is highest? Test has already been made at this point. Why not take it at night when you start making test???
do you have to cycle dhea ?
Will taking this break a fast?
Banned in the UK
Does DHEA breaks the fast?
first thing you should mention is that you will fail drug tests as a pro athlete taking this "supplement". For people who cant get TRT this is a good alternative from what I understand though.
Looking forward to roid rage.
It really should only be used to bring DHEA levels to more normal levels.
😂😂😂
DHEA rage? Is that a thing?
Yes started my cycle at 50mg upped to 100mg for 2 week noticed huge growths but my shoulder traps and chest was out pacing the rest and was quite moody. Was 19 at the time and my dhea/dhea-s was already at its peak so made me look freaky.
Can i use it with creatine, bcca and multivitamine
Go ahead
Why take it after don't u think it would be better before a work out
Can u do a video on green tea pills?
I would suggest Matcha green tea. One cup of that a day can be like 10 cups of green tea.
