The yam or dioscorea villosa is a Mexican plant that, thanks to one of its active ingredients diosgenin, if it is of high quality and coupled with the three amino acids, arginine, ornithine and glycine, constitutes an excellent natural precursor of growth hormone (GH) and DHEA. These two hormones are unanimously recognized as essential in anti-aging treatments.

DHEA is a hormone that is naturally present in the human body but, unfortunately, its quantity decreases with age, in both men and women.

At 80 years old, we produce only 10 to 20% of the quantity produced at 20 years old!

DHEA strengthens vitality and natural immune defenses. It delays the effects of aging, improves or restores the libido and relieves stress while improving the mood.

As for growth hormone, its levels decrease in the body in the same way as those of DHEA.

The interest of GH supplementation in adults lies in the fact that it ensures a decrease in fat mass (fat) in favor of lean mass (muscle), that it generally improves physical and mental performance, it ensures cardiovascular and bone protection.

However, it is obvious that nutri-prevention does not claim to solve all the problems of aging for two reasons: first, eating in an ideal way is unfeasible because of the widespread pollution of the soil, air and water. However, I have already suggested that it is better to choose organic foods. On the other hand, environmental factors, independent of diet and our will, interfere and can shorten human longevity.
