Pregnenolone for Brain

Meaning

Pregnenolone for Brain refers to the critical role of the steroid precursor pregnenolone, often synthesized de novo within the central nervous system, as a foundational neurosteroid with direct and indirect effects on cognitive function, memory, and mood regulation. As the master precursor to all steroid hormones, its presence in the brain is essential for neurogenesis, myelin formation, and modulating various neurotransmitter receptors, including NMDA and GABA. Maintaining adequate brain pregnenolone levels is a therapeutic target for supporting neurological resilience.
