Summary
This study tested whether a natural compound called palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) can help reduce depression in people with bipolar disorder. 34 adults who were already taking a mood stabilizer took PEA or a placebo. Researchers measured changes in depression scores and looked for links to the body's own cannabinoid and immune signals.
