(PEA)+™ provides support for physiological stress or discomfort associated with occasional stiffness and compromised tissue function as a result of overexertion and every day activity.* PEA works to calm excited nerves to naturally encourage alleviation, which promotes wellbeing.* Unlike many other PEA formulas, this product does not use the commercial solvent toluene in its manufacturing process.
PEA is paired with Meriva, the most clinically studied bioavailable curcumin, to provide natural support for the entire body with a focus on the body’s nervous, immune, and muscular systems.*
Data collected from the 2012 National Health Interview Survey estimated nearly 56% of American adults (126 million individuals) experienced some level of pain or discomfort within 3 months prior to taking the survey.(1)
Discomfort can range from a variety of indications, including effects on mood, mobility, and overall health and wellness. Most often, occasional pain, stiffness, and compromised tissue are the result of overexertion and everyday stress.
When excited nerves issue sensory information to the brain, the body can react in the form of uncomfortable sensations. Many individuals experiencing common ailments often choose to self-medicate.(2) These consumers turn to easily accessible
Over-the-counter medications such as NSAIDs instead of coping with the short term discomfort. A study, led by the Director of the Slone Epidemiology Center at Boston University, evaluating consumer compliance with recommended NSAID usage, found nearly 20% of individuals exceeded daily maximum doses during a one-week period.(3) When misused or overused, these OTCs can have serious side effects.
For those experiencing only occasional discomforts, a natural approach may be a better option to support physiological stress.* Dietary supplements work with the body’s natural processes for physiological stress and soreness without the side effects associated with the overuse of pain medications.*
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is an extensively researched natural ingredient for important neuroprotective actions.*(4) This ingredient has been utilized for decades and is available in dietary supplements worldwide as an option for the onset of physiological stress.*
PEA is an endogenous fatty acid amide that belongs to the family of biologically active lipids that are increased by the body to soothe discomfort naturally.*(5) PEA was identified over 60 years ago when it was isolated from extracts of brain, liver, and muscle of rat and guinea pig. It was later found to be contained in chicken egg yolk, olive oil, safflower and soy lecithin, peanut meal, and several other foods.

Enzyme Science GI Soothe
£45.50 — or subscribe and save 10%Relieves digestive irritation*
– Helps to rebuild the esophageal tissues*
– Instant soothing and protection*
Enzyme Sciences’ GI Soothe features alginate, or alginic acid, a viscous compound found in the cell walls of brown algae. In the stomach, this gelling substance works like a raft, floating on top of the acid pocket of stomach contents after a meal.
This “raft” keeps the acid from entering the esophagus.* When acid can’t enter the esophagus, it not only helps with soothing the sensation of occasional heartburn but also the tissue of the esophagus is allowed the opportunity to rebuild.*
Paired with the alginate, GI Soothe is formulated with natural buffering agents, calcium carbonate, trimethylglycine, and prickly pear cactus. Together, these ingredients act as a barrier and buffer for gastric acid while also soothing the gastrointestinal tract lining.* Multiple clinical trials have shown a natural approach can be safe and efficacious.
Recommended Dose: Take 1-2 chews after a meal causing discomfort. Take at least 1 hour after any medications. Do not exceed 6 tablets daily. Consult with a physician prior to use if you are pregnant or nursing, taking medications, or have a medical condition.

- Supports cardiovascular, circulatory and immune health*
- Decreases the body’s recovery period after activity*
- Promotes healthy responses to systemic stress*
Serrapeptase Pro™
For support of Systemic Stress*
Systemic stress can result from the body’s physiological response as a natural defense mechanism to protect against threats and other foreign invaders, as a result the body can endure physical discomforts while the body is in a state of healing.
Serrapeptase is known to decrease the natural fluid viscosity in joints after physical impacts encouraging a quicker recovery to regain mobility and comfort which is especially beneficial to those who live an active lifestyle.*
Beyond Digestion
Proteolytic enzymes such as pepsin, trypsin, and chymotrypsin, are naturally produced by the human body to carry out essential functions of breaking down proteins into smaller peptides for efficient digestion and nutrient absorption.* Beyond digestion, research has demonstrated the effectiveness of supplemental proteolytic enzymes in other areas of health and wellness, including immune, cardiovascular, and systemic health.*
Serrapeptase Pro™ provides potent proteolytic enzymes featuring Serrapeptase to promote joint mobility, improve circulation, cardiovascular and immune health.*
Recommended Dose: Take 1 capsule daily on an empty stomach, one hour before or two hours after a meal. More may be taken as needed.
Product Size: Serrapeptase Pro comes in a 120 capsule size bottle.
History
Serrapeptase has a long history of use in traditional medicine throughout Asia and Europe for over 30 years and now has been extensively studied in North America for its therapeutic benefits.1
Serrapeptase also commonly referred to as serratiopeptidase, serratia E-15 protease, serralysin, serratia peptidase, or serrapeptidase, is a proteolytic enzyme produced by the enterobacterium Serratia marcescens E-15.1. Serrapeptase is an extracellular metalloendopeptidase consisting of 470 amino acids and contains a zinc atom at the active site, which plays a vital role in its ability to cleave peptides. Serrapeptase works by only targeting non-living tissues, also known as “dead proteins”. 2 Originally, Serrapeptase was isolated from the microorganism Serratia found naturally in the silkworm’s intestine, Bombyx mori L.2 However, our Serrapeptase is vegan sourced.
This vegan source of serrapeptase, eliminates the need for enteric coating, and provides minerals that make this high potency formula easy on the stomach.
Serrapeptase Mechanism of Action
Taken on an empty stomach, Serrapeptase is absorbed through the intestine and transported directly into the bloodstream.* The enzyme binds to alpha-2 macroglobulin, allowing it to retain enzymatic activity.* 3 Once in the body, it works to optimize health by having an affinity for proteins that are dead, damaged, or do not belong.*
The proteolytic nature of this enzyme allows for the ability to dissolve dead and damaged tissue that is a by-product of the healing response.* In addition to its proteolytic activity, Serrapeptase possesses both fibrinolytic and caseinolytic properties making this enzyme vital for circulatory and cardiovascular health.*
Science suggests that serrapeptase accelerates the healing process by decreasing the amount and viscosity of fluid in tissues.*4
In optimal health, the body undergoes physiological processes to maintain or restore homeostasis. Eating habits, exercise, weight management, sleep, and lifestyle choices all contribute to systemic stress which the body must react to. Assisting the body to naturally repair and recover accelerates homeostasis and encourages cardiovascular, circulatory, and immune health.
