7-Keto DHEA is a natural metabolite of of the prohormone DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone). The ingredient was patented by Dr. Henry Lardy, who spent 10 years examining the over 150 metabolites of the hormone DHEA in hopes of finding a nutrient that would impart the positive benefits of DHEA without its side effects. For example, 7-Keto DHEA does not seem to raise sex hormones because it does not convert into testosterone or estrogen directly. Currently, there are 10 patents for 7-Keto DHEA for weight loss, cognition, and health.

Labeling Of 7-Keto DHEA

7-Keto DHEA is labelled under a variety of names to make it seem more “steroid like” or different from a competitor. Below are a list of the various names used for it:

3-beta-acetoxyandrost-5-ene-7,17-dione
3-acetyl-7-oxo-dehydroepandrosterone
7-Keto-DHEA
7-oxo-DHEA
7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone

Health Benefits Of 7-Keto DHEA

A University of Tennessee study found that 7-Keto DHEA increased insulin sensitivity, suggesting it may help those with non-insulin dependent diabetes. Experts also say it also plays a role in strengthening the immune system, enhancing memory, improving cardiovascular function benefits, and reducing muscle loss. Its anti-aging properties help keep people biologically young, thus regaining youthful vitality and offering a sense of well-being.

7-Keto DHEA Aids Weight Loss

7-Keto DHEA seems to help our bodies burn more fat faster without the central nervous stimulating effects most thermogenics impart. This can be a real benefit for those who are sensitive to stimulants and those who wish to supplement for longer periods. One study conducted by the American College of Physicians over an 8-week period showed a significant loss of bodyfat. Fifteen adults were given 100 mg of 7-Keto DHEA twice per day and another fifteen were given a placebo. All the subjects exercised 3 times per week for 60 minutes, performing cross-training aerobic and anaerobic activities. Body composition tests revealed that those who exercised while taking 7-Keto DHEA saw a 1.8% bodyfat reduction. The other lost 0.57% bodyfat. What’s interesting is that none of the subjects experienced any side effects. Another study done at the University of Southern California at San Diego revealed that people who used 7-Keto DHEA on a daily basis for 6 months lost fat and gained more muscle. In the sports nutrition segment, iSatori is leading the charge with 7-Keto DHEA sales with their Lean System 7 (original) and their MX-LS7 versions. Other companies selling it include Champion Nutrition, NOW Foods, Twinlab, and Beverly International. Unfortunately, 7-Keto DHEA is a very expensive ingredient to add to a fat burner (at the correct dosage needed) which is why many companies don’t include it in their formula.
