Description

7-Keto is a registered trade name for the compound 3-acetyl-7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), a stabilized form of 7-oxo-DHEA. Once ingested, acetyl-7-oxo-DHEA is cleaved to 7-oxo-DHEA, a DHEA metabolite naturally found in the body. Supplementation with 7-Keto may counteract the decline in 7-oxo-DHEA levels that occur during the normal aging process. Although 7-oxo-DHEA is similar to DHEA, it does not convert into estrogenic or androgenic hormones.
