Since its discovery, P.E.A. has been the subject of extensive research due to its ability to target multiple pathways in the body. P.E.A. is a natural compound produced by your body in response to cellular damage, and its primary role is to restore balance and promote homeostasis.†
Aging is associated with a widespread loss of homeostasis, contributing to chronic inflammation, compromised immune function, and disruptions in hormone regulation and metabolism.† (1)
P.E.A. helps support the body’s natural healing processes, exerting anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and neuroprotective effects.† The therapeutic potential of PEA for pain relief has been an exciting research focus because it targets both pain and inflammation simultaneously.†
Numerous clinical trials have shown the potential benefits of P.E.A., including:
Pain & Inflammation: Research shows that P.E.A. activates receptors in the body that regulate pain and inflammation, potentially lowering pain sensitivity by controlling the inflammatory response.† (1) In an 8-week study in subjects with knee osteoarthritis, P.E.A. supplementation of 300 mg per day resulted in a 40% reduction in pain and stiffness.† (2)
Immune System: P.E.A. possesses anti-inflammatory properties, reducing the production of pro-inflammatory signals and inhibiting the activation of immune cells involved in inflammation.† The beneficial effects of PEA on immune function are documented in over 350 peer-reviewed papers, including animal and human studies.† (3)
Brain: P.E.A. has been shown in studies to exhibit neuroprotective properties on the brain by reducing inflammation, promoting the growth of neurons and by regulating neurotransmitters that impact mood and well-being.† (4)
G.I. Tract: Studies show that P.E.A. may protect the lining of the G.I. tract, alleviate inflammation, and regulate processes like pain perception, gut movement, and digestion.† (3)

Standard P.E.A. has poor absorption and low bioavailability, and its levels in the blood quickly diminish after ingestion. To address this issue, LIPO P.E.A. uses an advanced liposomal delivery system designed to improve the bioavailability, created for better absorption, and a slower release into the bloodstream.†
