For example: Exercise recovery: Results of a clinical A n exciting new and clinically-proven ingredient promises effective drug-free pain relief. Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is an endogenous fatty acid amide that belongs to the endocannabinoid family. It is produced naturally in the body around various tissues, as a biological response to injury, stress, pain and inflammation. PEA works by acting on the cannabinoid receptor CR2, and it has been clinically proven to support joint health, sports-related inflammation, pain relief and sleep. It can be difficult for the body to produce PEA on demand at the site of pain or injury as we age. However, the good news is that there is a new ingredient available called Levagen+ ® , which provides the body with bioactive PEA. The PEA content in this proprietary ingredient is powered by LipiSperse ® technology to increase uptake and enhance functionality in the body. Clinically proven
trial published in Nutrients showed that a group of healthy males taking 150mg of Levagen+ ® had reduced lactate and muscle damage compared to a placebo
Osteoarthritis relief: A clinical trial undertaken on patients with mild to moderate osteoarthritis showed that those taking a supplement of either 300mg or 600mg of Levagen+ ® reported reduced joint pain, joint stiffness and anxiety, and improved joint function. Improved immunity: A number of studies demonstrate PEA’s ability to boost the immune system and provide symptomatic relief of flu symptoms. Anti-inflammatory action: PEA is well recognised for its therapeutic anti- inflammatory effects, with over 350 research papers documenting its anti- allergic, analgesic and neuroprotective properties. Stress relief: PEA can also contribute to improved relaxation and restfulness, leading to good quality sleep. Highly bioavailable: Adouble-blind study conducted on healthy men and women to measure uptake of Levagen+ ® found that its lipid-based delivery system, Lipisperse ® , increased plasma PEA concentration by 75 percent, compared to standard PEA. Non-addictive and well tolerated, PEA is alsobeing trialled forpainrelief inareas such as fibromyalgia, carpel tunnel syndrome, lower back pain, sciatica, inflammatory bowel disease and neuropathies, with positive results.
