7-Keto DHEA is the form of DHEA that has been shown to confer fat loss benefits in a placebo-controlled human study.7-Keto DHEA is a natural metabolite of DHEA that has been shown to safely increase thermogenesis, improve fat loss and help maintain healthy body weight when combined with a diet and exercise program.
A clinical study indicated that 7-Keto DHEA increases the resting metabolic rate of overweight adults.7-Keto DHEA may improve memory retention.Antioxidants are added based on the effect 7-Keto has in boosting mitochondrial oxidation.
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
