A Small, Micronized Pregnenolone Dose
Pregnenolone is a hormone precursor, so it belongs in a plan with a practitioner, not on a whim. This one is 25 mg per capsule, micronized, SFI Health (formerly Klaire Labs) describes it as a "hormone precursor to support mood and memory."*
Who I Reach For This With
- Adults, 18 and over, whose plan already includes hormone and stress-related lab follow-up
- Patients I am monitoring who need a small, flexible dose
- Short, defined trials where we set a start date and a review date
- People who want a vegetarian capsule with a short ingredient list
What Makes This Form Different
- 25 mg pregnenolone per capsule, micronized and derived from wild yam (natural diosgenin sterols)
- SFI Health: "Physiologically active pregnenolone, derived from natural diosgenin sterols, is micronized to a very small particle size to facilitate absorption"*
- Vegetarian capsule with microcrystalline cellulose and ascorbyl palmitate; 100 vegetarian capsules per bottle
What SFI Health Says It Supports*
- A "hormone precursor to support mood and memory"*
- Physiologically active pregnenolone, micronized to facilitate absorption*
How It Fits Into a Protocol
I use pregnenolone with a plan and a review date, never as an open-ended daily habit, which matches SFI Health's own note that it is not intended for long-term daily use. It typically sits next to stress and adrenal-focused pieces such as Adaptocrine or SFI Health Adrenal Cortex, and next to foundations like Brain-E DHA. Lab follow-up decides whether we continue, change or stop.
