Pregnenolone is the essential "mother" or "master" hormone, from which all major hormones - including DHEA, estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, and melatonin - are derived. An inadequate supply of Pregnenolone can lead to a dearth of the downstream hormones. Sadly, aging, stress, environmental toxin exposure and overstimulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis can lead to a diminished production of Pregnenolone, sourced from cholesterol.*

As a precursor to dozens of hormones, pregnenolone is needed to help the body maintain optimum hormone levels, playing a critical role in many functions.*

BioMatrix pregnenolone is derived from an extraction of the steroidal backbone of the Diosgenin yam. Once ingested, the body cannot tell the difference because this exogenous form of pregnenolone and the one it produces are molecularly identical. BioMatrix liquid pregnenolone has an absorption rate significantly higher than pill or tablet forms.
