The Answer is YES!


…But what’s the question, you may ask. For most of us, deciding to do something new in our daily routine for health or happiness takes passing the “Is this worth it?” test. 

Question:
#1 - Is it safe? 

#2 - Is it proven by science
to do something beneficial?

#3 - Is the benefit worth the cost?

This is the way most people decide upon new available health options to add into the daily routine.  So let’s walk through this with Twist 25 DHEA cream.

#1 Is Twist 25 DHEA cream safe?
Yes.  There are no dangerous side effects from using Twist 25 DHEA cream. It contains no dangerous or harmful ingredients and is made with bioidentical DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) the most abundant naturally occurring pro-hormone in the human body, mixed into a highly absorbable coconut oil base, Vitamin E and coenzyme Q-10, and the topical cream contains no parabens, no petroleum by-products, no cyclodextrins, no odor, no oily residue. Tested for safety and efficacy.

#2 Is Twist 25 DHEA cream proven by science to do something beneficial?


Yes.
  • reduces risk of cardiovascular disease, the #1 cause of death in the USA and the world
  • reduces risk of cancer of all types
  • helps improve deep REM sleep
  • helps support immune response
  • helps reduce abdominal fat
  • helps improve muscle tone
  • helps improve mental function, sharpness of mind, mood and focus
  • reduces risks of chemical and UV carcinogens for skin cells
  • is a base for sebum that helps skin hydration
  • improves mood and sense of well-being—fights depression
  • counterbalances negative effects of stress and high cortisol
  • helps to counter metabolic syndrome
  • helps cartilage and connective tissue
  • helps support bone strength

#3 Is the benefit worth the cost?
Yes. Given all the beneficial effects of using a properly made bioidentical DHEA cream called Twist 25, and the absence of any dangerous side effects would the benefits be worth the cost? 

Let’s think this through: 

One container of Twist 25 DHEA cream provides 50 ML of bioidentical DHEA cream.  The suggested use is to apply at least 1 full pump press of cream each morning and evening onto thin hairless skin and rub it in until it is completely absorbed.  One full pump press from the bottle is about 0.5 ML of cream.  So a container of cream provides about 100 squirts of cream.  So if 1 squirt is applied every morning and evening, a container of cream would last about 50 days.  With no special discount codes applied or quantity discounts offered online at store.twist25.com the retail cost of 1 container of Twist 25 DHEA cream is $49.95.  So with no discounts used, the cost of using Twist 25 DHEA cream as directed costs at most about $1.00 per day.  $1.00 per day.

Treat yourself to the perfect advantage
Consider that each of us probably enjoys some little something each day – call it “a treat.” For many, it’s that cup of coffee at Starbucks that gives us a nice warm satisfying taste and a little pep in our step to start the day.  For some, it’s that smoothie that we get as a treat on the way home from a workout; or it may be that nice cold beer you savor when you get home from work while you watch TV, or that wonderful glass of wine you enjoy with dinner.

We all have some little things we enjoy in life that we do for ourselves. We don’t worry for a second that the cup of coffee from your favorite gourmet coffee shop costs $2 or $3 each day.  Nor does spending $50 to $80 on anti-aging skin care or beauty cream bother us in the least; or $2-$10 per day for sleeping pills or the wine.

So consider the benefits gained by adding Twist 25 DHEA cream into your daily routine. Let’s say – if all it did was help you sleep better at night, have softer younger looking skin, and have a little more energy …and it only costs $1 per day? Solves at least three needs that you spend $10 per day on now for $1 instead?  ...and there are no dangerous side-effects?

Count me in!

So, let’s summarize:
If you are 35 or up, male or female - Is adding Twist 25 DHEA cream to your daily routine worth it ?
Pretty simple to figure out – YES!

Using DHEA To Sleep Better

Couple in restful sleep
Does it ever feel like you just can't get enough sleep? You wake up feeling worn out even after getting a full eight hours? Well chances are there are hormones you produce that have declined, and may be causing you to not get the restful, rejuvenating sleep you need. More than half the population over age 35 reports they get poor quality sleep and not enough sleep. As troubling as that may sound, there is now an easy way to do something about it. By applying a bioidentical skin cream daily that contains bioidentical DHEA, you can maintain your body's ability to produce hormones and sleep soundly at night.

What is DHEA?

DHEA is short for dehydroepiandrosterone, a naturally occurring pro-hormone made and processed in the adrenal glands, gonads and dermis. It is a base building block or precursor for more than 50 hormones. Hormones perform a wide variety of chemical messenger functions in the body and have many beneficial biologic functions. DHEA has been shown to by clinical research to allow deeper REM sleep.* REM sleep is the deep, restful sleep in which we dream and recharge the brain.
Until about age twenty-five, people make enough of their own DHEA. In youth, sleep is deep and restful because the body is able to produce plenty of the hormones needed to make that happen. But after age 25 or so, our bodies begin producing less and less DHEA. So by age 35, men and women alike produce about 20 percent less DHEA than they did when they were at their best or in the prime of life at age 20-25. By the age of 50, people make only about half the DHEA they did at age 25. As DHEA declines, many processes begin to not function as well. Some of the first signs of hormonal decline are: lack of energy during the day and poor quality sleep at night.


Studies Show DHEA Improves Sleep

Millions of people every day wake up after 8 hours of sleep still feeling tired. This begins to happen more and more as people get older because they are not getting enough REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. REM sleep occurs at various intervals during the night. REM sleep is one of five stages of sleep. It is the deepest stage of sleep when we dream. People typically spend more than two hours per night in REM sleep dreaming. According to a medical research study published by Dr. E. Friess, et al, “DHEA administration induced a significant increase in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.” * So if people can maintain higher DHEA levels, they can get more REM sleep. As a result, people with higher DHEA levels are more likely to wake up feeling rested, rejuvenated and ready to hit the day with energy.
DHEA must be used properly as a bioidentical DHEA cream applied on the skin rather than as an oral supplement because as a properly made cream DHEA can be absorbed and processed in the skin where it occurs naturally anyway. Unfortunately when it is taken orally as a pill, the liver destroys most DHEA before it can do any good. Twist 25 DHEA cream provides bioidentical DHEA on the dermis where it is used to produce the hormones. DHEA has been shown to allow better sleep at night. Decreasing quality of sleep in mid life is very common and expectable given declining DHEA levels that occur. That’s why many middle-age people often sleep, but don't feel rested even after 8 hours of sleep. Twist 25 DHEA cream makes sense.
As an added bonus, DHEA cream is made with coconut oil vitamin E and coenzyme Q-10 all ingredients that are good for you, as well. Twist 25 cream is also great for the skin. Try Twist 25 DHEA cream today. Apply 1 or 2 pump presses each morning and evening and rub it in completely on thin, hairless skin to feel the Twist 25 difference. Sweet dreams!

Feeling Right again with DHEA

To maintain optimal health and well-being, humans need adequate levels of dehydroepiandrosterone, known as DHEA. DHEA is the most abundant naturally occurring pro-hormone in the human body. DHEA levels gradually increase from birth to about age 25, when we are in our “reproductive prime” as humans. But after age 25, DHEA levels begin to decrease by about 2% per year. As an important prohormone, or building block for hormones, DHEA plays a crucial role in many body functions. Therefore, as levels of DHEA decline people notice they have trouble sleeping, lack energy or focus during the day, gain weight more easily, lose muscle tone, sharpness of mind and muscle tone. Low levels of DHEA are associated with “diseases of aging” such as greater risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, depression and insomnia to name but a few.
Cortisol Increases while DHEA Decreases as We Get Older
Cortisol is known as the stress hormone. Cortisol is released in response to stressful situations. It is the “fight or flight” hormone released to protect the body with an inflammatory response. The problem with this inflammatory response, is that over time too much cortisol has many detrimental effects on the body. As mentioned above, we gradually make less and less DHEA after age 25. One the otherhand, we gradually make more and more cortisol as we get older. Humans are at their healthiest, feel best and are at lowest risk of disease – cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression and cancer, when the DHEA to cortisol is at a ratio of 10:1.
Everything from driving in rush-hour traffic to dealing with an upset friend or co-worker, can cause stress in our lives, and production of more cortisol. Elevated cortisol levels over time can lead to impaired immune response, feeling bloated, lacking energy, weight gain and feeling washed out. Cortisol can also adversely affect cardiovascular health, blood glucose levels, and bone strength. High cortisol levels can lead to the development of Metabolic Syndrome, which has been shown to lead to obesity, high blood pressure, and increases in cholesterol and triglyceride levels. DHEA counterbalances the negative effects of cortisol.
DHEA and Cortisol
DHEA is the only thing in the body that counterbalances the negative effects of cortisol. There is a great article about “Adrenal Exhaustion” written by Dr. Christiane Northrup, MD. The article describes the common high cortisol with low DHEA life scenario so common in the U.S.A. Given the gradual declines in DHEA and the gradual increases in cortisol that occur as we get older and cope with more and more stress, using Twist 25 DHEA cream daily make sense.
You, Cortisol and DHEA Cream
Do you wake up feeling groggy and have difficulty getting going? Do you crave sweet snacks in the middle of the afternoon? Is your thinking foggy? Are you forgetful? Do you get recurrent colds, headaches and feel depressed? At night, though you’re tired, do you have trouble falling asleep? You wonder what happened to your interest in sex? If this description fits you, you probably have a high cortisol level and a low DHEA level. What Dr. Northrup describes in her work as “adrenal exhaustion” So you should try using a pharmaceutical grade bioidentical DHEA cream called Twist 25 every morning and evening for at least a few weeks. It is available without a prescription; and can do great good safely. You feel the benefits.
Visit your doctor and have your cortisol, DHEA and thyroid levels checked. You can test your DHEA levels from home using a home DHEA test. Twist 25 DHEA cream is safe, and has no dangerous side effects. If you’re 35 or up, increasing DHEA is good for health, happiness and looking and feeling your best. So get some Twist 25 DHEA cream today and notice the difference! Make your own hormones.

Get Deeper Sleep and Feel More Rested with DHEA

Have you been feeling tired lately? Not getting enough sleep? Is it hard to get out of bed in the morning, or perhaps you just run out of energy after lunch or by mid-afternoon, and feel yourself nodding off. If so, you’re not alone.
For many people after age 30, getting good deep sleep can get harder and harder. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that “more than one-quarter of the U.S. population reports not getting enough sleep, while nearly 10% experience chronic insomnia,” and insufficient sleep is increasingly being shown to contribute to poor health and greater risk of disease. For many people, this can be averted by maintaining healthy DHEA levels.

DHEA Production
DHEA, short for dehydroepiandrosterone is the most abundant pro-hormone in the body. Humans produce more and more DHEA from birth into adulthood, but levels peak by about age 25. Then DHEA levels decline at a rate of about 2% per year. So, by age 35 people are making about 20% less than they did when they were “in their prime” or at their best. By age 50, men and women alike are only producing half as much of this crucial pro-hormone. DHEA is a carbon chain molecule, not something that can be eaten in foods. In fact, oral DHEA supplements that have been available for many years are eliminated by the liver, so it is best for people to use DHEA as a bioidentical DHEA skin cream that is absorbed and processed in the skin if they wish to benefit from this crucial prohormone.

DHEA and Poor Sleep
Researchers have studied the effects of DHEA on sleep, and the researchers found that people with higher levels of DHEA had deeper REM sleep, while people with lower DHEA levels had less REM sleep. REM sleep is the deep sleep during which we dream, and “recharge the batteries.” The medical research studies demonstrated that DHEA can help people get deeper REM sleep, and thereby feel more rested and energized during the day.
While it’s easy to find inexpensive oral DHEA supplements, they are minimally effective. It is crucial that DHEA be used correctly as a properly made bioidentical DHEA cream that is applied on the skin.
Get the best DHEA supplement made. Twist 25 DHEA cream is bioidentical DHEA cream that is made with coconut oil, Vitamin E and Co-enzyme Q-10. For best results, the cream is rubbed in twice daily onto thin, hairless skin. Twist 25 DHEA cream is tested to be safe and effective.
Try adding a pump or two of Twist 25 cream to your routine every day, and notice the difference: deeper sleep, more energy. Feel refreshed and sharper of mind with Twist 25. Sweet dreams!
