Most men believe that the greatest benefit they get from hormones is sex drive and sexual function. But, male hormones can influence much more. Testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), two essential male hormones, can affect many aspects of your well being. Testosterone aids in the development of bone, lean muscle and body mass, and cardiovascular function. DHEA is the most abundant hormone in your system and serves as the source for testosterone production. DHEA affects the immune system, blood pressure, sleep and your body's stress response. Both hormones are an effective tool for achieving optimal well-being.

Keeping testosterone and DHEA in balance really does help to make the man. MaleCheck by BodyBalance is a prime way to monitor the balance of these hormones.
