The Superhormone Promise: Nature's Antidote to Aging

The book goes into great detail specifically about DHEA; and while you may not read it in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference from time to time and check out areas where you may have a question on dosage, usage and potential interactions. I purchased this book "used" and it looks as if the previous owner never opened it. Lots of info. 5 stars.

This book dates from 1996 and the MD author is gungho for all kinds of bioidentical hormones, especially DHEA. But time has passed and DHEA has a lot of detractors now as it can build up in the system with negative side effects. However, you will learn all you ever wanted to know about the various male and female hormones and that was the reason I bought the book used at Amazon. I admit I have been using the cream form of the precursor hormone pregnenolone, but only in 5 mg doses and with lots of vacation times as suggested by nutritional commentator Ray Sahelian. For me it's mood elevating and improves my muscle strength, good enough for an older woman. The other stuff I'd leave alone unless I had confirming medical tests that I needed them. For an overall good explanation and evaluation of hormones, it's a good read. I just have trouble with the oversell of hormone therapy. Like trying to put a sports car engine in a Model T Ford. The outcome might not be so good. They are steroids after all.

Best book re hormones I've read....Only book that I could recommendon the topic and best I've seen …..No info on Vitamin D but does have a fewpages explaining cytokines and their relationship to hormones..Authors inspired me tobegin a hormone supplement program..

One of the BEST books I have ever read. This book is really on the point. If you value your health please purchase this book. I would gladly pay $50-$100 for it.

Very informative. Interesting hypothesis that I plan to check out. Therapy I had not heard of until I read this book.

ever since i started taking dhea, i feel that my energy went up through thr roof.now, i feel better, have positive actitude, and feeling that my life, my health, my love to people, will improve 100%, and i`m getting better & better thanks to dhea.

Good overview of topic of ageing, with updated information starting with Melatonin and continuing with most of the hot topic compounds / treatments with dosage information and sources of further information.

For anyone wanting to take their health into their own hands, this is a great start. Both male and female can learn about hormones, the rolls they play and why they need to be replaced as we age in order to stay healthy. A must read.

This book is a great read. Very informative for the individual to make an informed choice as to wheather they want to follow the recommended dosage of harmones mentioned in the book. This I have chosen to do and I can not remember feeling this well for many years. I suffer from ME/CFS and it has increased my energy dramatically.
