What Is PEA (Palmitoylethanolamide) in Codeage Liposomal PEA?Updated 31 minutes ago

PEA stands for palmitoylethanolamide, a naturally occurring fatty acid amide. Codeage Liposomal PEA is a dietary supplement that provides 500 mg of ultra micronized PEA per capsule as its single active ingredient.


What is palmitoylethanolamide?

A fatty acid amide is a molecule built from a fatty acid joined to an amine. Palmitoylethanolamide is formed from palmitic acid, a common saturated fatty acid, and ethanolamine. It is found in small amounts in a variety of foods and in animal tissues. It is also available as a dietary ingredient, which is the form used in supplements.

For general reference, the PubChem entry for palmitoylethanolamide lists its chemical name, structure and identifiers.


Is PEA a hormone, a drug or a medication?

Codeage Liposomal PEA is a dietary supplement. Dietary supplements are not drugs and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.




Why does Codeage Liposomal PEA contain only one active ingredient?

The formula is built around a single active, PEA, so the label stays simple to read. The Supplement Facts panel lists one active ingredient per capsule: Palmitoylethanolamide; Ultra Micronized (PEA). The other ingredients are listed separately on the label and on the product page.
