Bill Restricts Access to Safe, Helpful Supplement

Your access to DHEA is in jeopardy! In an effort to capitalize on the recent reports of steroid use among athletes, the same opponents of DHEA that proposed S. 762, which classifies DHEA as an anabolic steroid, adding it to the list of controlled substances and removing it from the market, are back. This time they are proposing S. 2470, which would limit sales of DHEA to minors. This is a backhanded attempt to slowly restrict access to DHEA and separate it from other supplements, working towards the goal of banning it from the marketplace. Your immediate help is needed to keep this safe and effective dietary supplement legal and accessible.Take Action Now!

DHEA is not an anabolic steroid. It is a naturally occurring hormone that has a wide range of benefits, including maintaining strong bones, boosting immunity, and improving mood and sleep patterns. Further studies suggest that DHEA may be helpful for such conditions as obesity, cancer and Alzheimer's disease. DHEA dietary supplements, which have been on the market for over 20 years, are derived from a plant in the wild yam family.

We need your help to keep DHEA legal. Send a message to Congress asking your Senators to oppose S. 762 and S. 2470 and any amendment to restrict access to DHEA to minors. Congress should not restrict access to a dietary supplement that has given health to millions of Americans. Take action now!
