Why does Young Living have pregnenolone is these products
Pregnenolone is produced in your body from cholesterol in your brain, gonads, adrenal glands and central nervous system. it is also the main precursor for several hormones.
A 1983 study by dePeretti et al., published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, measured pregnenolone levels in 659 subjects.
The highest levels were found in newborns. Their levels were over 20 times greater than adults.
Levels gradually decline over your life.
There are many benefits to supplementing your body’s natural pregnenolone production, including mood, brain function, memory and sleep.
And no toxic effects that have been found.
Combining DHEA and Pregnenolone enhances the beneficial effects of pregnenolone. It also eliminates the drawbacks for menopausal women of just using DHEA by itself.
Pregnenolone improves brain function
Taking pregnenolone can have a fantastic effect on your cognitive function, as it helps to increase the growth of neurons in the brain. By enhancing the production of myelin, a fatty layer that insulates nerves and boosts their function, it leads to the formation of new synapses and acts as a neuroprotector. (Murugan et al. J Biol Chem. 2019 Mar 22)
Pregnenolone has been found to be 100 times more effective for memory enhancement than other steroids or steroid-precursors in lab mice. Pregnenolone has been reported to not only make people smarter but happier and enhance one’s ability to perform on the job while heightening feelings of well-being. It has also been reported to reduce high-stress induced fatigue.
Use PD 80/20 to improve brain function, name recall, motivation, and memory in both men and women.
Get a good night’s sleep!
Studies have shown that pregnenolone and its derivative allopregnanolone, can stimulate deep sleep, making it ideal for patients who suffer from sleep disturbance or insomnia.
Human studies have shown that supplementing with pregnenolone increases the amount of time that a person spends in deep sleep (slow wave sleep). This, in turn, can have a positive impact on mood, anxiety and even memory, helping to consolidate the other benefits of pregnenolone.
PD80/20 capsules support the brain and nervous and endocrine systems.

• 640 mg/oz. of Pregnenolone

When Progessence Plus Serum (for progesterone support) is not enough
Some women begin to experience the effects of lower pregnenolone levels as early as their 30’s and 40’s.
If you find that just using Progessence Plus Serum isn’t giving you the results you want, try adding Prenolone Plus cream for hormonal support. For women over 65 years, this can really make a difference in how you feel.
Studies reveal how supplementation with pregnenolone (a non-prescription nutritional supplement) helps reverse the steady decline of critical hormones like progesterone, estrogen and testosterone.
