Only some of the info I had because I've just started the tagging process. It will, however, be starting point. Obviously, I tend to keep the 'infectious theory' research. If you want tradtional med info on DHEA, please search Pubmed.

For the Mayo site:
These uses have been tested in humans or animals. Safety and effectiveness have not always been proven. Some of these conditions are potentially serious, and should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare provider.
Psoriasis Study results suggest that DHEA offers no benefit to individuals with psoriasis, but some disagree. Additional study is needed before a firm recommendation can be made. |

Rheumatoid arthritis Preliminary evidence from a case series suggests that DHEA likely offers no benefit to individuals with rheumatoid arthritis. Well-designed clinical trials with appropriate endpoints are required before a strong recommendation can be made. | |
Figures Mayo would be against a hormone that works with Vitamin (Steroid) D.

Lynn,
What the heck is wrong with you? How dare you quote information from such an "backward" institution as the Mayo Clinic? Seriously, do you, can you, actually even consider that they have more knowledge and learning than Pip? You're losing it Lynne.

Especially when some research says to use DHEA with Vitamin D!!!
Pip
Pip,
I think that "some" is the key word in your previous post. Like in Lynn's post, the key words are "Mayo Clinic".

or you can go to: once there type in dhea and auto immune disease or rheumatoid arthritis. Enough to keep you reading for awhile. Lindy
