Can dhea boost your energy?

Doubt it: Dhea has been used for many things: increase libido, increase hair and increase energy. The studies are not too convincing. I doubt it.

Dhea: Dhea is produced by the adrenal glands and promotes production of hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. Low dhea levels may result in low testosterone levels,but I'm not sure it acts as an energy booster. I'd like to have an endocrinologist answer this question for you.
