15. DHEA: Stamina, Passion, Immune Health, Hormonal Health, One Simple Solution

Let’s chat about one simple solution that can literally help increase energy, passion, and immune health! Today, Maraya is talking about one of those secret things that many people don’t hear about and it’s called DHEA. This hormone precursor may not solve all of your problems but it has proven to be extremely powerful in being a solution to energy, passion and immune health as well as bone health, anti-aging, menopause and fertility. Listen in as Maraya explains what it is, her personal results with DHEA, how it helps, and how you can talk to your provider about it.

IN THIS EPISODE:

  • [00:50] What is DHEA
  • [04:33] Your adrenals and DHEA
  • [06:45] Why we might want more DHEA and more testosterone
  • [08:18] Levels of DHEA in the body and how they change as we age
  • [09:04] Ways to access DHEA and how DHEA levels change during your cycle
  • [11:24] Fertility perspective and estrogen dominance
  • [13:36] Maraya’s personalized experience with taking DHEA
  • [15:40] How to address foundational causes without hormone replacement therapy and how DHEA can help

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • DHEA is a secret in the realm of anti-aging, healthy menopause and healthy fertility. What is it? It’s not a hormone. It’s a hormone precursor to estrogen and testosterone that can uplift our overall hormonal wellbeing.
  • There’s never just one answer to a health issue. A multidisciplinary, comprehensive approach means you address it from nutrition, supplementation, mindset, energy, and trauma release. It’s all relevant. It’s all important.
  • These simple practices would make a huge difference in your health: increase fruits, vegetables, berries, protein, and fiber throughout the day; eat within an hour of waking and stop within four hours of going to bed; don’t go longer than three to four hours without eating and get ample protein.
  • Find a provider who knows you, can order your DUTCH Plus test and ask them about DHEA as an option for you.  Or, simply reach out to Maraya and register for the next Vibrant Life Workshop for your personalized live roadmap (the workshop is free).
