Trying PEA for my knee pain – any dosage tips or personal notes?

Posted by aspiring_codes in General Discussion - 0 points, 0 comments.

I started taking PEA a few weeks ago after my knee got a little sore from a weekend hike. I went through the /peptides/pea page and thought 600 mg twice daily sounded reasonable. I’ve stuck with that dose for about two weeks now.

The knee feels a bit less achy, especially after I take a walk, and I haven’t had any headaches or nausea, just a faint stomach bump when I take it with food, which goes away if I spread it out. I’m curious if anyone else has had a similar experience, or if you’ve tweaked the timing or added anything else to the stack. Also, does anyone know how long the effects last after each dose?

I read that the half‑life is about an hour or two, but it’s hard to tell from feeling the difference. Any quick personal anecdotes or safety pointers would be much appreciated. Thanks!
