Apply For An Account- Reduces and relieves nerve pain and persistent muscular pain, cramps, and spasm.
- For neuromuscular pain, such as shoulder and back pain, head and neck pain, sciatic pain, and fibromyalgia pain.
- PEA is analgesic and anti-inflammatory, exerts endocannabinoid activity and reduces pain amplification and muscle pain.
- Contains highly bioavailable PEA and exclusive Meta Mag® Magnesium.
Clinical Benefits
Relieves neuromuscular pain: Magnesium exerts muscle-relaxing actions (and prevents muscle spasms) via multiple mechanisms and is a natural glutamate antagonist.1 Glutamate is involved in central sensitisation and pain amplification.2 Magnesium regulates neuromuscular transmission by blocking the entry of calcium ions in synaptic nerve terminals,3 as well as inhibiting presynaptic acetylcholine release, which propagates impulses between motor nerves and muscles.4
Higher magnesium intake has found to be protective against chronicpain.5 However, one third of Australian adults fail to meet their requirementsfor adequate magnesium intake.6 PainX contains 420 mg/d to support adultsto meet the recommended intake of 310 to 320 mg/d in women and 400 to420 mg/d in men.7
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) promotes endogenous cannabinoidsystem (ECS) activity through its ability to augment the activity ofcannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2).8These receptors are expressed in nerve tissue and immune cells and areinvolved in modulating the inflammatory response by suppressing immunecell activation, which can reduce pain perception.9 PEA proves to be effectiveand safe in nerve compression syndromes. In one pivotal, double blind,placebo-controlled trial in 636 sciatic pain patients, subjective pain scoreswere reduced from 6.5/10 to 3.6/10 in the 300 mg/d group, while in the 600mg/d group scores were reduced from 7.1/10 to 2.1/10 compared to placebo,which decreased from 6.6/10 to 4.6 (Figure 2).10
Meta Mag® and Levagen+™ are both exclusive types of magnesiumand PEA, respectively, that show enhanced bioavailability.11 Meta Mag®is different to magnesium salts and other magnesium chelates becauseit is covalently bound to two glycine molecules.12 Levagen+™ is a highlybioavailable PEA using LipiSperse® technology for enhanced absorption.13The Levagen+™ absorption studies show that Levagen+™ is 1.7 times betterabsorbed and that it stays in the plasma for a longer period of time comparedto a standard PEA (Levagen®) (Figure 3). Clinically, 600 mg/d of Levagen+™PEA is likely to equate to consuming 1,000 mg/d of a standard micronised PEA(Levagen®). A Practitioner can expect Levagen+™ to produce greater efficacyand to last longer in the body.14
PainX contains 750 mg of malic acid per dose.
Levagen+™ is owned by Gencor Pacific Limited.Meta Mag® is a registered trademark of Balchem Corp.
