If someone wanted to participate in a double-blind cross-over placebo-controlled study, several locations may still have spots open. Perhaps, I could get the information even though it is proprietory, if I knew the locations of the folks willing to participate. Margie Nestler <[log in to unmask]>, posted a message this week listing two pharmacies, with 800 numbers, that fill persciptions for DHEA. Some pyrimid type health-food companies offer what they call DHEA made from?? The purity and efficacy could be in doubt. They can be found using one of the WWW search engines, using the word DHEA to search for.
