Research supports pregnenolone supplementation for promoting healthy neurosteroid activity, memory function, and hormonal balance.

Pregnenolone Preferred (Preferred Form) has a bioavailability rating of good absorption.

Pregnenolone is the master steroid hormone precursor, synthesized from cholesterol and serving as the starting material for cortisol, DHEA, progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen.
