Benefits of using Pregnenolone
Pregnenolone exhibits a number of benefits to brain health:
- Enhances memory
- Improves focus and concentration
- Improves cellular repair
- Protects cerebral function
- Prevents neuronal injury
Pregnenolone has also been studied for its benefits in treating anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders, as well for treating marijuana addiction. Pregnenolone can also improve healing of nerve injuries.
Symptoms of Low Pregnenolone
The most obvious symptoms of low pregnenolone are poor memory and decreasing cognitive ability. This may be communicated as:
- Having trouble remembering things
- Just don’t feel as sharp as I used to
- Difficulty with focus/concentrate/think straight
Dosage of Pregnenolone
We have all our patients take 100 mg of pregnenolone in a micronized, sustained-release capsule daily. It’s usually taken in the morning but can be taken in the evening.
We don’t measure pregnenolone levels because we’ve found they tend to be inconsistent and all our patients do well on the 100 mg dose. And the lab results are a guide post, since we focus more on how the patient feels.
