There are lots of research into ways to cure depression and there is no 3 minute cure for depression or even free depression treatment, although some do cure depression naturally but the majority, by following prescribed treatment plans for depression.
Some time ago, DHEA (dehydroeplandrosterone) was known as a “youth hormone” thought to heighten energy and libido. Now comes the possibility that DHEA could be a revolutionary depression treatment used as a depression medication for anyone showing depressive symptoms.
Research published in the Archives of General Medicine found that 90 mg daily of DHEA significantly reduced the symptoms of depressed patients, even in those who had not responded to depression treatments before.
DHEA is something which the body creates naturally, and has been linked to depression, researchers aren’t sure how the hormone is created. It may be a building block for estrogen and testosterone; which both have mood-altering qualities, or it may boost feel-good brain chemicals like serotonin.
Although very promising results were found in patients suffering depression, this is probably not licensed as yet, as a depression cure.
Please do not rush out to your Doctors and request a prescription as the long term effects are still not known. This drug is still very much in it’s infancy.
