Allergy Research Group® Pregnenolone is micronized in a lipid base: the pregnenolone is reduced in size to tiny crystals, and stabilized in a lipid matrix. This advanced system results in a product with optimized absorption characteristics. Allergy Research Group® Pregnenolone is soy free, and uses the plant wild yam as a starting material (non-GMO, nonirradiated, and non-ethylene-oxide-treated).

Warning: Not for use by individuals under the age of 18 years. Do not use if pregnant or nursing.

Pregnenolone may affect levels of other hormones, such as progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, and/or DHEA.
The Micronized Lipid Matrix tablet system allows pregnenolone to be directly presented to the systemic circulation via the lymph. The lipid matrix protects the micronized pregnenolone crystals, which are less than 50 microns in size, from the harsh gastric juices, and then allows them to be absorbed via the lymph. By avoiding the hepatic portal vein and the liver ‘first-pass effect’, higher levels of pregnenolone are available, for a longer time period.
Pregnenolone is a naturally occurring metabolite of cholesterol that acts as a precursor to all adrenal cortical steroids, including progesterone, testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, dihydrotestosterone, aldosterone, cortisol, and estradiol. The body produces pregnenolone from cholesterol in the mitochondria through the cytochrome P450 conversion system. The brain requires pregnenolone, producing it and also absorbing more from the blood.
Pregnenolone supports the body’s ability to deal with stress, and can potentially enhance the sense of well-being, decrease fatigue, and enhance neuronal connections and memory. It has been reported to modify sleep EEG by increasing REM sleep, and to increase the time of slow wave sleep with no change in cortisol or growth hormone production. Pregnenolone has been noted to have the most profound effects on those who are most fatigued, supporting their energy, reaction time and decision making. Overall, pregnenolone supports the general feeling of well being and a normal levels of bodily energy, particularly when dealing with stressful situations.
