Scientists now have learned that body cells have DHEA receptors meaning the hormone has a specific role in the body. While it is similar in structure to testosterone, progesterone and estrogen, DHEA has an endless number of functions in the biological spectrum. Recently, DHEA has been show to help endothelial function and insulin balance. Insulin helps the body metabolize sugars. Insulin sensitivity impairs the body from processing sugars.
