Pure Encapsulations DHEA 5 mg is a micronized dehydroepiandrosterone supplement supplied in vegetarian capsules, formulated to support healthy DHEA levels.

The amount converted to each downstream hormone varies with an individual's biochemistry, age, and sex. DHEA levels are known to peak around age 25 and decline steadily thereafter.
The formulation is micronized and delivered in a hypoallergenic plant fiber (cellulose) capsule base. It is gluten-free and Non-GMO.
