ABSTRACT:
Diabetes is treated by orally administering a dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) compound selected from the group consisting of DHEA, DHEA sulfate and soluble DHEA compounds. The DHEA compound is preferably administered in finely dispersed form, powdered or solution, mixed with the food diet of the diabetic in a dosage range of up to 0.4% by weight of the food diet. The pharmacological activity and utility of DHEA as a potent anti-diabetic agent and anti-hyperglycemic agent over a variable range of genetic background is documented.
