Since 1980, Naturetica’s mission has always been to contribute to people’s health and well-being through continuous and tireless research.
It is research that allows us to update the formulations of our products, develop formulations that are increasingly environmentally friendly, and offer new phytotherapeutic solutions.
Among the new products we’ve recently added to our 2022 catalog is a new supplement that deserves a special mention.
Today we're talking aboutpalmitoylethanolamide(PEA)— the uses and benefits of this extremely powerful molecule with numerous applications in pain management.
PEA is a substance produced naturally by our bodies that has anti-inflammatory properties and helps repair various types of damage.
Its production decreases with age, but it is found in foods such as milk, egg yolks, and peanuts.
It was thanks to Rita Levi Montalcini’s research that its mechanism of action was revealed in 1993.
The Nobel Prize-winning scientist discovered that this long-chain fatty acid amide is capable of interacting with endocannabinoid receptors—molecules that, in turn, exert an analgesic effect in cases of inflammatory processes of varying severity.
Since Levi Montalcini’s discovery, numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of this molecule as a natural pain reliever in cases of:
It is no coincidence that in the United States, PEA-based medications are classified as “painkillers.”
This substance is also well-suited for external use in the treatment of dermatitis or eczema, as an alternative to traditional cortisone-based ointments, with the major advantage of having no significant side effects.
Today, it is widely available on the market, but it is typically combined with other active ingredients for pain relief.
At Naturetica Laboratories, by studying and applying Levi Montalcini’s research, we have developedan ultra-pure natural product made exclusively from PEA.
To ensure optimal therapeutic effectiveness, the capsules (strictly plant-based and gluten-free) contain the maximum permitted dosage.
For instructions on use, we always recommend consulting an expert—such as a herbalist or pharmacist—at your trusted Punto Naturetica location.
