Ingredients explained
Pregnenolone
Pregnenolone is a steroid precursor that can be converted into hormones such as progesterone, DHEA, estrogen, and testosterone, influencing cellular signaling and stress response pathways.
Caution: May affect hormone balance because it can convert into other hormones; start low, follow label limits, and avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding.
Vitamin C (as ascorbyl palmitate)
Vitamin C functions as an antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals and supports normal collagen formation and cellular protection.
Caution: May cause mild stomach upset in some people; taking with food can improve tolerance.
How they work together
Pregnenolone serves as a hormonal building block, while vitamin C provides antioxidant support that helps protect cells during normal metabolic processes. Together they cover hormone precursor supply and basic cellular defense.
