>Your access to DHEA is in jeopardy! The Senate is considering a bill,

>S. 762, to classify DHEA as an anabolic steroid, adding it to the

>list of controlled substances and removing it from the market. H.R.

>1249 is the companion bill in the U.S. House of Representatives. Your

>immediate help is needed to keep this safe and effective dietary

>supplement legal and accessible.

>

>DHEA is not an anabolic steroid. It is a naturally occurring hormone

>that has a wide range of benefits, including maintaining muscle

>strength and 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 and Representative to oppose S. 762 and H.R.

>1249 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!
