Confession: the mechanism by which PEA exerts antiviral, anti fungal, antibacterial action is unknown. I rashly assumed that the mechanism was produced by zinc iontophoresis. This may be true but I was wrong to assert certainty on this issue.

Mea culpa.

Greetings, fellow swampers and those preferring dryness. I give loads of thanks to fishtroller for the citations which are referenced here: Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)
