Ingredients explained
Pregnenolone
Pregnenolone serves as a precursor steroid that the body can convert into hormones such as progesterone, DHEA, and downstream oestrogen and testosterone, influencing cellular signalling and stress response pathways.
Caution: May affect hormone balance and interact with hormone-sensitive conditions; monitor for mood or skin changes and avoid exceeding suggested intakes.
Vitamin C (as ascorbyl palmitate)
Vitamin C functions as an antioxidant and cofactor for enzymatic reactions, helping protect cells from oxidative stress and supporting normal collagen formation.
Caution: May cause digestive discomfort in some individuals at higher doses; take with food if sensitive.
How they work together
Pregnenolone provides a hormone precursor that the body can convert along multiple pathways, while vitamin C offers antioxidant support that may help protect cells during normal metabolic processes. Together they cover hormonal precursors and general cellular protection.
