In this one-minute audio clip, Jonathan Wright, MD notes that DHEA should NOT be taken orally; it gets converted into estrone (an estrogen) in the liver.

DHEA applied transmucosally helped normalize Dr. Mercola’s hormone levels

Dr. Mercola notes that a very small dose of DHEA applied transmucosally has helped normalize his hormone levels

Dr. Mercola notes that, as suggested by Dr. Wright, he has been taking a small dose of DHEA transmucosally (applied to the perianal mucosa, I assume, as Dr. Wright suggests for men) and “it has done amazing things to normalize my hormone levels”.

“Don’t swallow it.”

Dr. Wright author of fantastic book on bioidentical hormone replacement

Dr. Wright author of Stay Young & Sexy with Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement: The Science Explained (2009)

Jonathan Wright, MD is the author of the fantastic book on bioidentical hormone replacement, Stay Young & Sexy with Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement: The Science Explained (2009).

Dr. Wright is a pioneer in natural medicine and the doctor who started bioidentical hormone replacement in the US back in 1982 when he combined three bio-identical estrogens in the same ratio found naturally in young, healthy women into a compound called Tri-Estrogen or Tri-Est.

I will post articles summarizing highlights from the book, but for now, I am posting a few audio clips from an interview on the same topic that Joseph Mercola, DO (Mercola.com) did with Jonathan Wright, MD.

Best Book on the Topic

Dr. Mercola says Dr. Wright’s book is the BEST book on the topic

Dr. Mercola, who did the interview, says that Jonathan Wright, MD’s book “Stay Young and Sexy with Bioidentical Hormones: The Science Explained” is the BEST book he has ever read on the topic.

Dr. Mercola says, “It really is brilliant.”

He goes on to say that “It is a phenomenal resource, and should be in everyone’s library who has any type of interest in this area, certainly any clinician who is taking care of women.”

Dr. Mercola notes that when he first started practicing medicine, he was paid by the drug companies to fly around and give speeches to doctors to tell them about the benefits of hormone replacement therapy.

After hearing Dr. Mercola say how good it was, I finally started reading it.

It is fabulous.

I encourage everyone to read it.
