NCT ID NCT07359534
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a daily supplement called Levagen+ (PEA) can help trained cyclists recover from a week of intense training. Twenty healthy athletes will take either the supplement or a placebo for 45 days. Researchers will measure cycling performance, inflammation, stress, and sleep quality to see if Levagen+ eases the physical and mental toll of hard exercise.
