What Does “Ultra Micronized” Mean on the Codeage Liposomal PEA Label?Updated 25 minutes ago

“Ultra micronized” describes the physical form of the PEA ingredient. It means the PEA powder has been milled to a very small particle size. The term describes the particle size of the raw ingredient and says nothing about what the ingredient does in the body.

What is micronization?

Micronization is a mechanical process that reduces a solid material into very fine particles, measured in micrometers (microns). One micron is one thousandth of a millimeter. Food, supplement and pharmaceutical ingredients are often micronized so the powder is fine and uniform.

What does “ultra micronized” refer to?

“Ultra micronized” refers to the particle size of the PEA ingredient. It describes how the powder is prepared before it goes into the capsule: milled to a fine, uniform grade. The Supplement Facts panel lists it this way, “Palmitoylethanolamide; Ultra Micronized (PEA),” so the ingredient form is named exactly as it is supplied.

Why does the powder look fine, light or clumpy?

Very fine powders can cling together, pack down or look slightly uneven from one bottle to the next. This is a normal characteristic of fine powders. See our article on why liposomal capsules change color for related appearance information.
