Pregnenolone is an endogenous steroid hormone synthesized from cholesterol. As a "parent hormone," pregnenolone can be converted to other hormones, including the sex hormones. For example, pregnenolone can be converted to progesterone, which can then be converted to DHEA, the precursor of androstenedion, the precursor to testosterone and estrone. Pregnenolone is also a neurosteroid. It is found in high concentrations in the brain, where along with other neurosteroids, it impacts synaptic function, is neuroprotective, and supports myelinization.

Why you may need Phosphatidylserine? Phosphatidylserine (PS), a naturally occurring phospholipid nutrient, is a component of cell membranes. As such it serves as an essential constituent to the functioning of all cells in the body. PS is most concentrated in organs with high metabolic activity including the brain, lungs, heart, liver and skeletal muscle.
Why your healthcare practitioner recommends Phosphatidylserine? As a component of myelin, which is essential for the proper nervous system function, PS makes up a major part of the phospholipid concentration of the brain. As such, PS is supportive of brain function and may attenuate some of the negative neuronal effects of aging. A review of recent research shows that for older adults with moderate cognitive impairment, PS use consistently produced modest improvement in memory tests. Additionally, in a well designed, controlled clinical study of senior adults with mild cognitive impairment, when supplemented with 100 mg of PS daily for 6 months, subjects with relatively low baseline scores had significantly improved memory scores compared to baseline. PS has also been shown to support normalization of cortisol in response to stress.
