Imagine if there were a way to reduce chronic pain, calm inflammation, and promote healing…without side effects.

Just a pipe dream? Maybe not.

ARA 290, a peptide isolated from a naturally occurring hormone, may do just that.

Keep reading to learn more about ARA 290 and its amazing potential.

The ARA 290 Story

ARA 290 (also known as pentadecapeptide) was developed from a naturally occurring hormone called erythropoietin (or EPO).

Scientists initially studied EPO for its ability to stimulate red blood cell production. However, in the process of studying EPO, they discovered a peptide within this hormone that can repair damaged tissue.

The isolated portion of EPO described above is now called ARA 290.

What’s Different About ARA 290?

Current treatments for inflammation, tissue damage, and chronic pain often cause significant side effects:

  • Steroids can weaken the immune system
  • Opioids carry a high risk for addiction
  • Non-steroid anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) can cause stomach ulcers, liver damage, heart disease, and other health issues

ARA 290 provides a safer alternative to the medications listed above, in part because it only targets tissue that is injured or inflamed.

Potential Health Benefits of ARA 290

ARA 290 shows great promise for revolutionizing the treatment of many chronic conditions:

  1. Neuropathic Pain: This type of pain is caused by nerve damage, and it typically shows up as shooting or burning pain or sometimes as tingling sensations.Because neuropathic pain is associated with so many different health conditions, just about anyone can develop it for a multitude of reasons.

    Research suggests ARA 290 can reduce these painful sensations and improve quality of life for patients who experience them.

  1. Small Fiber Neuropathy: Small fiber neuropathy affects the tiny nerves that control sensations related to temperature and pain. Those who have it often experience numbness, burning, or hypersensitivity.ARA 290 may help to repair these small nerve fibers and restore normal function over time.
  2. Chronic Inflammation: Chronic inflammation is inherent to most chronic health conditions, ranging from rheumatoid arthritis to heart disease to diabetes. This type of inflammation occurs when the immune system overreacts in response to stress, injury, or infection. In clinical studies, ARA 290 appears to reduce chronic inflammation without suppressing the entire immune system, allowing for more targeted treatment.
  1. Tissue Healing: Tissue damage from injury, illness, or surgery can often take a long time to heal.ARA 290 boosts the body’s natural repair processes to promote faster recovery, healing, and reduced scarring.
  2. Protection for Eyes and Kidneys: In addition to causing neuropathy, diabetes often causes diabetic retinopathy (i.e. eye damage) and kidney damage. Early studies indicate ARA 290 may help to prevent diabetes-related damage to eyes and kidneys.

What Does the Future Hold for ARA 290?

Clinical trials continue to expand our understanding of ARA 290 and its benefits. Ongoing studies suggest ARA 290 could be a breakthrough in terms of treatment for chronic conditions, such as:

  • Chronic pain
  • Heart disease
  • Autoimmune conditions
  • Inflammation
  • Wounds and tissue damage that are slow to heal

ARA 290’s ability to target damaged tissue while avoiding healthy tissue sets it apart from existing therapies.
