Legion DHEA Ingredient (50 milligrams per serving)
DHEA (50 milligrams per serving)
DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone, is a hormone produced in our adrenal glands or artificially from chemicals in wild yam and soy.[5][6][7] Your body uses it to create testosterone and estrogen—two hormones vital for physical and mental health, especially as you age.[8]
DHEA levels peak in young adulthood and decline by about 10% each decade, leaving you with a dwindling supply in your later years.[9]
Taking a DHEA supplement helps bridge this gap, supporting your body’s ability to restore hormonal balance.
In women, it can also alleviate some of the symptoms of menopause.[33][34][35]
The clinically effective dose of DHEA is between 50 and 200 milligrams.
No Artificial Food Dyes, Fillers, or Other Unnecessary Junk
Artificial food dyes and fillers may not be as dangerous as some people claim, but studies show they can cause negative effects in some people, including gastrointestinal toxicity and behavioral disorders.[36][37][38][39][40]
That’s why we use natural coloring derived from fruits and other foods as well as naturally derived ingredients for enhancing shelf life and facilitating the manufacturing process.
Third-Party Lab Tested for Purity and Potency

"Legion is science-based at its core. Not only do they dose all of their products based on the clinical doses proven to be effective by scientific studies, they go above and beyond the their competitors by funding new research."
Dr. Bill Campbell, PhD
Professor of Exercise Science at University of South Florida
"There are a lot of sleazy supplement companies out there, but Legion is not one of them. Their products are free of fillers and inactive ingredients and they take the time (and money) to test them with independent labs to ensure you're getting what you pay for."
Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, MD
Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician and a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine
"When it comes to quality and integrity, Legion is among the best. Their products only include ingredients that are backed by research and in doses that are proven to be effective in scientific studies."
Sal Di Stefano, Justin Andrews, and Adam Schafer
Hosts of The Mind Pump Podcast
"Legion is a tremendous company run by people I trust and respect. The quality of their supplements is second to no one. And while I don’t use many supplements, the only ones I do come from Legion."
Jordan Syatt
Strength and Nutrition Coach
"Legion consults with nutrition experts to make honest, science-based products and then proves they're genuine with independent lab work. That's how all supplement companies should operate."
Menno Henselmans, MS
Founder of Bayesian Bodybuilding, Published Scientist, and Physique Coach
"Legion's customers are getting some of the best sports supplements on the market."
"Legion Pulse is the best overall pre-workout, especially for energy and focus."
Take one serving (1 capsule) daily. For best results, take one serving in the morning with food. Don’t exceed two servings (2 capsules) per day.
What makes your DHEA different from other DHEA supplements on the market?
There are five reasons our dehydroepiandrosterone supplement is superior to most other forms:
It contains a clinically effective dose of DHEA.
It contains no artificial fillers, food dyes, or other unnecessary junk.
It has been analyzed for purity and potency in an accredited lab.
It has a clean and transparent label showing exactly what’s in every serving and what’s not (no proprietary blends or hidden ingredients).
It’s made in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected and cGMP-compliant facilities.
While you can find some DHEA supplements that boast a higher DHEA content than our dehydroepiandrosterone supplement, there’s a good chance they don’t check all of the other boxes that Legion’s DHEA does, which is why it’s the best DHEA supplement you can buy.
Can I take your DHEA supplement with other Legion supplements?
Yes.
None of our other supplements contain DHEA, so you can use it alongside any Legion product without worrying about exceeding the recommended dose.
Our DHEA supplement also doesn’t negatively interact with any of the compounds in our other products, so you can safely stack it with any other Legion supplements to support your health and fitness goals.
A supplement I take already contains DHEA. Can I benefit from your DHEA supplement?
It depends on how much DHEA your current supplement provides and how often you take it.
If you’re already getting a clinically effective dose of 50-to-100 mg per day, you may not see much improvement from adding Legion’s DHEA supplement.
However, if your current supplement provides less than 50 mg of DHEA daily, adding our DHEA supplement to your regime may offer additional benefits.
How much DHEA should I take per day? How much is too much?
Most studies use doses of 25-to-200 mg per day, with 50-to-100 mg being the most well-researched and effective range.[1][2][3]
Research shows that doses above 50 mg per day boost testosterone levels more effectively than lower doses but may also increase estrogen levels, which many people would prefer to avoid.[4][5]
The most common feedback we get from customers is an improvement in overall vitality.
That said, it’s important to keep in mind that some of the benefits of DHEA aren’t things you’ll immediately feel, but they still play a crucial role in supporting your long-term health—such as maintaining healthy hormone levels, optimizing body composition, and supporting metabolic health.
It boils down to this:
By supporting some of the most essential physiological mechanisms in your body, DHEA helps you feel and function at your best as you age.
Are there any side effects of DHEA?
Most research shows that moderate doses of DHEA are safe and cause few—if any—side effects.
However, higher doses can sometimes lead to oily skin, acne, and increased body hair growth in areas like the face, armpits, or pubic region.[1] These side effects are rare and usually temporary.
If you’re over 70 or have any existing medical conditions, consult a healthcare professional before using DHEA to ensure it’s suitable for you.
DHEA supplementation isn’t recommended if you’re being treated for cancers that worsen with high levels of sex hormones, such as prostate, ovarian, breast, or endometrial cancer.[2]
If you’re over 70 and using DHEA, it’s a good idea to have your DHEA and its androgenic and estrogenic metabolite levels checked annually to minimize the risks of certain cancers.
Can your DHEA supplement be taken while pregnant or breastfeeding?
If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using a DHEA supplement. They can help determine if it’s safe and appropriate for you.
The effects of DHEA during pregnancy and breastfeeding can vary. In some cases, it may offer benefits, while in others, it could be harmful depending on your natural hormone levels and individual circumstances.
Can your DHEA supplement be taken with medication?
DHEA may negatively interact with several medications. If you’re taking medication, talk to your doctor before supplementing with DHEA.
Is DHEA supplement gluten-free? Soy-free? Dairy-free?
Yes.
Is your DHEA supplement vegetarian or vegan friendly?
Yes.
What does the Prop65 warning on the label mean?
Our products include a Proposition 65 warning in compliance with California’s regulatory guidelines, which are among the most stringent and sweeping in the world.
A Proposition 65 warning does not indicate whether a product is safe or unsafe. Rather, Proposition 65 is a consumer notification law in California that requires warnings to inform consumers about the presence of one or more of over 900 substances in various types of products. These substances include naturally occurring and ubiquitous compounds, even when present at levels below those known to cause harm.

Why the $75 minimum purchase amount for free shipping?
To quench our piggish lust for grubby profits in the eternal service of the dread lord Mammon?
Kind of. But not really. Because here's the truth:
Single-item orders are so blasted expensive to ship that we make very little profit on them. And no profits make the bean counters lose their marbles.
But when you order just one more item, it only costs us a few dollars more to ship both of them to you. Add a third item, and it's just a few more shekels to ship.
And that allows us to make a profit. Which keeps the bean counters happier than a hammer in a nail factory.
So, if it pleases your Grace, we humbly request your mercy and patronage notwithstanding the vexing free shipping minimum.

Many ingredients in supplements don’t have any scientifically validated benefits, and many ingredients that do are often underdosed to the point of irrelevance.
That’s why we only use the choice ingredients and precise doses shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.
Many supplement ingredients lack scientifically validated benefits for healthy humans—we aren’t large rodents, after all—and those that do often use doses too low to be effective.
That’s why we exclusively use ingredients and doses proven effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies on healthy men and women.
While artificial food dyes and fillers may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies show they can cause negative effects in some people, including gastrointestinal toxicity and behavioral disorders.
That’s why we use natural coloring derived from fruits and other foods as well as naturally derived ingredients for enhancing shelf life and facilitating the manufacturing process.
If you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want to buy from a company that:
Sources ingredients from premium suppliers around the world (great supplements require great raw materials)
Tests all ingredients for purity and potency in accredited third-party laboratories (to conclusively verify safety and efficacy)
Manufactures final products in America (which has some of the strictest regulations in the world)
Which is exactly what we do here at Legion.
Did you know that some supplements contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?
That’s why we rigorously test every ingredient in each of our supplements for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants, ensuring they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.
While artificial sweeteners, food dyes, and fillers may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health.
That’s why we use natural sweeteners like stevia, erythritol, and monk fruit instead as well as natural coloring and flavoring derived from fruits and other foods.
Research shows that these ingredients are not only safe but can also confer several health benefits, including better nutrient absorption, healthy cholesterol and inflammation levels, and more.
You’ll never see a “proprietary blend” in any of our products, which is little more than a sneaky way to use tiny (ineffective) amounts of lots of ingredients and hope customers don’t know any better.
Every dose listed. For every ingredient. In every product. Anything else is unacceptable.
