DHEA-M [Glandular] contains 25 mg DHEA per capsule in a synergistic herbal base of sarsaparilla, saw palmetto, damiana, pumpkin seed and Panax ginseng (the M indicates that this is a male formula). The herbal base provides dietary factors that are as uniquely valuable to men. Saw palmetto has been the subject of numerous evaluations as a support for healthy prostate function. Pumpkin seed contains zinc, essential to male reproductive health. Sarsaparilla and damiana have been used by men for centuries, and the unique energizing herb Panax ginseng is known the world over for its contribution to optimal well-being. DHEA dehydroepiandrosteroneis a hormone precursor produced by the adrenal glands. After about age 25, the body's production of DHEA declines, leading many experts to believe that DHEA plays a role in the aging process.
