Stave Off Menopause

What causes many women 35 and up to lack energy or stop feeling vital and sharp, lose focus and mental clarity, lack sex drive, and not sleep well at night? The answer is hormones.

Decreases in hormone levels like estrogen, progesterone, estradiol, testosterone, and estrone all contribute to these unpleasant symptoms. Gradual hormonal declines make the process not an immediately noticed thing; but the results of reduced hormone levels have significant effects over time and become increasingly apparent and progressively more bothersome if nothing is done to slow the process. The symptoms begin gradually and are noticed as what most of us call "signs of aging".

The beginning of the process is known as peri-menopause which then becomes full-blown menopause.

So what if there were a natural safe way to stave off many of these unpleasant hormonal declines? There is something we can do about it. It’s a special cream called Twist 25.

DHEA, dehydroepiandrosterone, is a pro-hormone - a base building block for hormones. It is a naturally occurring precursor to about 50 hormones in the body. It is the most abundant pro-hormone in the body. We make more and more DHEA until about age 25. Then after age 25 we make about 2% less per year until death. Many physicians call DHEA “the youth hormone” or “the mother of all hormones”.

By supplementing DHEA, the body can naturally process that additional available base to produce slightly more of the hormones it might otherwise gradually diminish.

The best way to provide the body DHEA is with a bioidentical cream that is gently absorbed in the skin, because most DHEA metabolism actually occurs naturally in the skin. Unfortunately, DHEA pills ingested orally are destroyed by the liver and only increase DHEA-sulfate levels rather than DHEA.

Twist 25 DHEA cream is the reliable first choice DHEA supplement cream recommended by doctors, pharmacists and health retailers. Go to http://www.dheafacts.com to learn more about DHEA; or go to http://store.twist25.com to order the highest quality DHEA cream made.

It's all the little things we do each day that make the big differences and keep us looking and felling our best.
