7-Keto is a naturally occurring metabolite of DHEA that does not affect hormone levels, but is known for its anti-aging properties. Because the body's production of DHEA declines with age, so does the production of 7-keto-DHEA. Weight gain is a common sign of aging that often accompanies the decreased production of DHEA and its metabolites. 7-KETO has been patented for its ability to promote thermogenesis as well as for the maintenance of healthy body weight.
7-Keto is a by-product of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is a natural chemical that is converted into the body building steroid hormone androgen as well as the sex steroid hormone estrogen.
Unlike DHEA, 7-Keto does not lead to an increase in steroid hormones. Rather, 7-Keto stimulates the thyroid gland, which in turn results in speeding up the body’s metabolism—an important component of 7-Keto related weight loss that has been suggested to be beneficial to overweight women. Another weight loss factor associated with 7-Keto is its ability to actively induce liver enzymes that cause thermogenesis—the generation of cellular heat. Other roles 7-Keto plays in health are:
• Improving lean body mass • Building muscle • Boosting the immune system • Enhancing memory • Reducing signs of aging
