Sleep plays a major role in cognitive, immune, and cardiovascular health.  Beyond its importance to overall health, sleep is critical to recovery and therefore is paramount to achieving optimal athletic performance.  Levagen®, also known as Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), is a naturally occurring fatty acid amide that provides much of its benefits through the endocannabinoid system by increasing levels of anandamide (AEA), making PEA an ideal alternative to CBD.

While PEA’s benefits may be limited by its poor absorption, a new technology to boost bioavailability (LipiSperse®) has been combined with PEA to create Levagen®+, achieving up to 1.75 times the bioavailability of standard PEA.  Beyond improved bioavailability, Levagen®+ has been demonstrated in human clinical research to reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, and the time it takes to feel completely awake after a night’s sleep.  It’s no surprise then that Levagen®+ improved cognition upon waking as well.  Levagen®+ is primed to meet the needs of health-conscious consumers wherever they are, thanks to the broad amount of dosage formats the LipiSperse® affords to PEA.
