Supports the endocannabinoid system
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is a long-chain fatty acid produced naturally by the body but also found in foods such as egg yolk, soybean, and sunflower oils. This molecule, studied for its unique and wide range of health benefits for eighty years, is now receiving special attention due to its crucial role in the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a communication network that maintains cellular homeostasis, particularly when tissues are damaged, inflamed, or injured. PEA is an endocannabinoid produced locally by cells, following any injury, physical stress, or pain. By inhibiting the activation of mast cells that cause further inflammation (such as the release of histamine), PEA acts as a potent anti-inflammatory agent. This unique molecule has other direct and indirect mechanisms of action; It enhances the action of other endocannabinoids through its "entourage effect" and its action on many new cellular receptors, including PPAR. The PEA molecule has been clinically shown to have the ability to relieve pain in knee osteoarthritis as well as reduce symptoms of low back pain, and is well tolerated by athletes, children, and the elderly.
