What is pregnenolone?Pregnenolone is a naturally occurring metabolite produced primarily in the adrenal glands and central nervous system. Its synthesized from cholesterol and functions as a precursor for the cascade of events from which all other sex hormones, such as progesterone, estrogen and DHEA, are made. Pregnenolone is found in larger quantities in the brain and cranial nerves than any of the sex compounds. Animal studies provide information showing the correlation between cognitive performance and the cerebral concentration of pregnenolone sulfate.* With age, the amount of pregnenolone synthesized in the body decreases. Around age 75, its believed to be reduced by as much as 60 percent (from the normal amount present at age 35).
