When You Feel Good, You Look Good

                                                                                                                                                                                          


Want to look better? Start with the little things.

It’s all the little things we do each day like exercise, eating a healthy diet loaded with a variety of vegetables, drinking plenty of pure water, getting adequate sleep and sunshine that keep us healthy.  When you take care of yourself, it shows. 

But what if you just don’t feel like taking those little steps? Since your hormones play an important role in your overall sense of well-being, take a minute to learn about the role of DHEA in hormone production.

DHEA:
  • is a crucial prohormone or base from which the body produces hormones.
  • is the most abundant hormone precursor. 
  • helps connective tissue and bone formation.
  • supports neuronal cells and bone cells to form.
  • helps the body to rebuild.
  • counterbalances the negative inflammatory effects of cortisol, the stress hormone.
  • supports the immune system by increasing the number of and activity of natural killer cells.

Humans are naturally at their best or "in their prime" age for having children between the ages of 18 to 35 years. They feel vital and have sex drive, and have the energy and mental sharpness to care for children. 

But from age 25, males and females start making 2% less DHEA each year. This allows for hormone levels to decline. By age 35, we produce 20% less DHEA than when we were “in our prime” or “at our best,” and by age 50 we are only producing half as much.  This gradual decline continues, as do levels of 50 downstream hormones that all use DHEA as a base or precursor like estrogens in women and androgens like testosterone in men.

Knowing this, it makes sense to maintain healthy hormonal levels and health from age 35 and older with a DHEA supplement. 

But one lesser known fact is that medical research findings reveal it is best to use DHEA as an absorbable cream instead of a pill. The effectiveness speaks for itself. That’s why after a few weeks of consistent use, people start asking Twist 25 cream users “What have you been doing? You look so good.” When you feel good you look good.

Twist 25 DHEA cream is applied each day as a specially made bioidentical skin cream in a coconut oil base, Vitamin E and Coenzyme Q-10. It’s one of the best things you can do daily to maintain your health, mood, quality of sleep, energy, muscle tone, cardiovascular health, skin and immune system. DHEA is the most abundant prohormone in the human body. Make your own hormones.

Maintaining good health is a much better strategy than letting things gradually deteriorate. It is much harder to regain health and hormonal balance once lost. Developer of Twist 25, Dr. John Woodward, M.D. and bioidentical hormone replacement specialist at Medical City Dallas, TX said, “Staving off hormonal declines is much better and more effective than trying to replace hormones and good health once lost.”

As hormones decline, signs of menopause or andropause begin to show up as bad mood, poor quality sleep, low energy, weight gain, low sex drive and lack of mental sharpness or focus.

Meanwhile, cardiovascular health, risks of cancer, metabolic syndrome and depression increase as hormone levels decrease. Many people deceive themselves and deny that anything is happening because the decline is very slow and gradual. There is no dramatic incident that forces us to do something additional with no urgent need to. 

Little by little good health is lost. Usually, we attribute this easily ignored and gradual process of decline to “aging.” 

The good news is you can do something to slow the decline. 

Use Twist 25 DHEA cream daily to stave off the decline. We should try to maintain DHEA and hormone levels to allow optimal health. Make your own hormones. Feel your best and look your best with Twist 25 DHEA cream.

It’s all the little things we do each day that make a big difference.

What is Normal? and Other Great DHEA Questions


When it comes to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels, what’s ‘normal?’

We love talking with Twist 25® customers and people who want to learn more about DHEA. Recently, we had a couple of conversations that might interest others—especially regarding testing for DHEA levels—so we’re posting the questions on the blog.



One conversation started like this: “My doctor recommended I use Twist 25 DHEA cream to help maintain healthy hormones. He gave me a whole list of benefits like: bone strength, cardiovascular health, supporting the immune system, softer skin..He said it was also good for cartilage and other connective tissue, fuller softer hair, and reduced risks of cancer…  But, I have some questions …”



Q: Do men and women have different DHEA?
A: The DHEA molecule itself is the same for men as for women. Men and women both produce DHEA, but men typically make a bit more than women do.  Women’s levels peak at about 350-400; while for men, levels peak at between 350-650. Here are the typical “normal” levels throughout life for men and women at different ages.

Normal levels for DHEA -sulfate (a close more stable measurable “cousin” or metabolite of DHEA) differ by sex and age. Here are typical amounts of DHEA-S produced by women and men on average.

Here is a graph depicting these DHEA levels over the human lifespan.

 

Q: Why would people 35 and up apply DHEA onto their skin daily?

A: A picture speaks a thousand words. In the graph below, the area between the dark blue line and the red line is what could be called “room for improvement” for DHEA levels during the human lifespan.


Q: Is DHEA safe to use?
A: DHEA is the most abundant naturally occurring prohormone in the human body. Providing something natural, DHEA, that exists and is used in the skin anyway in a coconut oil base cream is great for your skin and also great for your health. There are no dangerous side effects.

Q: Well, that makes sense. So if I order Twist 25 DHEA cream, how long does one container of Twist 25 DHEA cream last?
A: One container of Twist 25 cream contains 50 ml of cream. Each full pump press releases 0.5 ml of cream. There are about 100 squirts of cream in a container. So, if one pump press is applied each morning and evening, then one container of cream will last about 50 days.

Q: How does Health2Go ship orders to customers?
A: If you order by subscription, shipping is free + you don’t have to remember to reorder. It conveniently charges $49.95 to your card every month and ships to you via US Postal Service First Class.

For orders of either one pump of Twist 25 or a 3-pack of Twist 25, $7 shipping and handling (S&H) is charged. The same flat rate applies whether one pump is ordered or three. It does not matter where you live in the USA, including Alaska, Hawaii, or a US government base anywhere in the world.

S&H= $ 7.oo flat rate for orders of 1 pump or 3 pumps.

Q: What if I live in Canada or Australia or some other country?
A: Twist 25 cream is made in the USA and sold only in the USA. Twist 25 cream cannot be ordered by or shipped to anybody except residents of the USA (and USA military bases and US territories) because in some countries like Canada and Australia, for example, products containing DHEA require a prescription.

However, in the USA products containing DHEA are available for over-the-counter (OTC) purchase without a prescription because it is safe and has no dangerous side effects. After all, DHEA is the most abundant naturally occurring prohormone in the human body. Not a foreign substance. No dangerous side effects. Twist 25® DHEA cream is an active trademark on file with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Only Health2Go, Inc. can make Twist 25 DHEA cream. It is available through many health retailers.

Feeling and Looking Younger with DHEA — The Right Way

One of the favorite benefits of Twist 25 DHEA cream is its ability to fight aging in lots of different ways. The most common effects aging people complain about is a lower energy level, diminished memory, less drive, less muscle tone, more belly fat and thin, papery skin — all are things that a quality bioidentical DHEA cream can help fight off. Through powerful support of cognitive function, energy, cardiovascular function, immune response, strong bones and joints, DHEA can help you fight the most dreaded symptoms of aging.

DHEA is a naturally occurring pro-hormone that our bodies produce more and more of each year from birth through puberty and into adulthood; but then DHEA produced by the body levels out between the ages of about 20 to 25. After age 25, DHEA levels decrease by about 2 percent each year, meaning that by the time we hit age 50, our bodies are only making about half as much DHEA as they did in our 20s. By age 35 most people are already making 20% less than when we were in our prime. Because of this decline and the many beneficial things DHEA does in the body, rubbing in a little bit of bioidentical DHEA cream morning and evening each day helps maintain the bodies’ availability of DHEA, and this helps support the many functions DHEA has to help us feel younger and look younger every day.

It is very important to be sure you’re using a high quality DHEA supplement, though. When you shop for DHEA supplements, it’s easy to want to buy the cheaper option, but that would be a bad choice. Many cheap DHEA supplements aren’t the quality, effective DHEA cream you’ll need to successfully fight many signs of aging. Look for a DHEA supplement that is made with pharmaceutical-grade bioidentical DHEA. Twist 25 DHEA cream has been research tested and perfected for more than 20 years. Twist 25 DHEA cream is made with other beneficial ingredients: coconut oil, citric acid, Vitamin E and Coenzyme Q-10 to be both safe and effective. Twist 25 DHEA cream has been perfected over many years by a Board Certified medical doctor working with very specialized cream chemists. Twist 25 cream is available without a prescription; and physicians and pharmacists recommend Twist 25 DHEA cream, so you can be sure that Twist 25 DHEA cream is the safest, most effective product of its kind.

That’s why so many people all over the United States love Twist 25 and won’t waste their time or money buying cheap imitations that don’t work. With Twist 25 DHEA cream, you know you’re buying the very best DHEA supplement cream, applied on the skin in the dermis where most DHEA is processed by the body anyway. You can feel the benefits.

Another wonderful thing about DHEA is that it is a base for sebum or skin oil. As a result people notice they get softer, more hydrated skin. DHEA also helps to fade keratoses, or age spots, and protects cells from both UV and chemical carcinogens. So, people soon notice their skin looks younger and smoother from using Twist 25 cream, plus all the ways it makes them feel better day to day. When you sleep well at night and awaken refreshed, your energy level and mood make you more productive, you feel fit and trim, and you just look better. It all goes together. You feel and look younger using Twist 25 DHEA cream from age 35 and up.
