Directions: Metagenics Bio Absorb PEA Advanced

Adults: Take 1 capsule twice daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.

Dosing – The daily dosage of PEA in clinical trials has ranged from 300mg–1200mg daily for chronic pain and up to 1800mg daily for acute colds and flu. Clinical trial data would suggest that a loading dose of 600–1200mg for 3–4 weeks followed by a maintenance dose of 300–600mg may be the most appropriate dosing strategy for chronic pain conditions. Individual requirements will vary.

Timing – Considering that PEA is a fat soluble compound, consumption with a fat-containing meal may enhance absorption.

Contraindications and adverse effects – There are no known contraindications. PEA has been clinically studied across a broad population group and has been found to be highly tolerable, with aside effect profile similar to placebo.

Why is there a 21-Day Warning for Bio Absorb PEA? Is it safe to take long term?

The Therapeutic Goods Association (TGA) mandates a 21-day warning be placed on all listed PEA product labels. In listing this medicine, 17 clinical studies were provided to the TGA, of these, only three were conducted in ‘healthy participants’ with the maximum duration of these studies being 21 days, hence these three studies were considered by the TGA.

Numerous other studies exist which used PEA over three months without negative effects. See references Tab for 256 references relating to PEA.

Always read the label. Use only as directed. If symptoms persist consult your healthcare professional.

 

Benefits: Metagenics Bio Absorb PEA Advanced

Bio Absorb PEA Advanced relieves neuropathic pain, such as sciatica, neuropathies and neuralgia.

Clinical Research of PEA

Study Type Dose of PEA Duration Outcome
A large scale, pivotal randomised, doubleblind, placebocontrolled trial in 636 participants with lumbosciatica pain. 300 mg/d or 600 mg/d 3 weeks The group receiving 600 mg/d of PEA reported a significant improvement in quality of life (p<0.001). Pain was reduced by greater than 50% compared with the 300 mg/d and placebo group.
Open label study in 30 participants with diabetic-induced peripheral neuropathy.2 600 mg/d 8 weeks Significant reduction in intensity and presence of pain from baseline (p<0.0001). No serious adverse events reported.
Clinical trial of 20 patients with chemotherapy induced neuropathic pain.3 600 mg/d 8 weeks Pain and all neurophysiological measures assessing Aα, Aß, and Aδ fibres significantly improved (p<0.05) with PEA administration.

 

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic4 due to its endocannabinoid (eCB) action.5 PEA affects eCB signalling through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α)  activation6and is capable of exerting antiallodynic and anti-hyperalgesia effects by downmodulating both microglial and mast cell activity which has led to its use for neuropathic pain.7Both TRPA1 (transient receptor potential ankyrin 1) and TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1) are co-expressed in sensory neurons and are implicated in neuropathic pain, hyperalgesia and neural amplification.8 Animal studies have shown that a main phytoconstitutent of saffron, safranal, desensitises TRPA1 and PEA desensitises TRPV1.9 In addition, vitamin B1 deficiency results in neuropathic pain10 and vitamin B1 was found to significantly reduce dorsal root ganglia neuron excitability in vitro, a provocating factor in central sensitisation of pain.11

1 in 5 of chronic pain sufferers have neuropathic pain.12 Patients presenting an inadequate response to drug treatment13 can partly be explained by the hyperalgesia that is associated with long-term opioid use.14 PEA and saffron have been found to be safe to use alongside common pain medication in certain individuals*.15,16,17,18,91,20,21,22,23

Levagen+ uses LipiSperse technology for enhanced absorption24 and is 70% better absorbed (Figure 2) leading to greater plasma levels over time compared to a standard PEA. 600 mg/d of Levagen+ PEA is likely to equate to consuming 1,000 mg of a standard micronized PEA. Practitioners can expect Levagen+ to produce greater efficacy and to last longer in the body.25
