Oleoyl Ethanolamide

Oleoyl ethanolamide for weight management*

Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is a molecule produced in the body, usually found in the intestines. It is responsible for the feeling of satiety following meals.*

OEA works to activate the receptor called PPAR (Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor) and simultaneously ramps up fat-burning and decreases fat storage.  When you eat, OEA levels increase and your appetite decreases when the sensory nerves in your brain tell you your full. *

When this receptor is activated in the intestines of rats, the animals consume less food. Research on rats shows that both injections and oral intake of OEA causes a reliable reduction in the amount of food eaten.   Limited human evidence suggests that OEA may be able to aid fat loss by acting on PPARα. When this receptor is activated in fat tissue, energy expenditure increases.*
