7-keto-dhea
Also known as
- 7-Keto Dehydroepiandrosterone
7-keto DHEA (7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone) is a metabolite of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is produced by the adrenal glands. It is often used as a non-hormonal supplement to promote weight loss, improve muscle mass and increase metabolism.
Some studies have suggested that 7-keto DHEA may aid weight loss by increasing the activity of thermogenic enzymes, which are responsible for burning fat. It is also believed to increase muscle mass by stimulating protein synthesis and reducing muscle breakdown. Additionally, 7-keto DHEA may have antioxidant properties that could help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Unlike DHEA, 7-keto DHEA does not convert to estrogen or testosterone and does not activate androgen receptors, thus, it is not considered to have the same risks as DHEA supplements. However, more research is needed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of 7-keto DHEA as a supplement.
