Cetyl Myristoleate – Forschung

Überwiegend Mechanismus / Beobachtung

9 begutachtete Studien

Was die Evidenz sagt

Überwiegend Mechanismus / Beobachtung

Die meisten Studien zu Cetyl Myristoleate sind mechanistisch oder beobachtend statt RCTs, die einen klinischen Effekt messen — betrachte die Ergebnisse als vorläufig.

Die meiste Evidenz stammt aus mittelwertigen Meta-Analysen und randomisierten Studien, veröffentlicht 2002–2026 mit einer typischen Studiengröße von 60 Teilnehmenden.

Basierend auf 9 Studien · 1 Meta-Analyse · 5 RCTs · 485 Teilnehmende insgesamt

4Meta-Analysen=357 · medium study2026

Einfach gesagt: Further research is required to determine the synergic effects as a supplementary regimen, longer term effects, and safety profiles of CFAs in patients with knee OA.

Tung KM, Pan PH, Lin YT, Nhu NT, Wu JL, Hu CC, Chen C, Hou WH. · Clinical and experimental rheumatology (2026)

Significant improvements were observed in pain levels (SMD= -0.37, 95% CI= -0.60 to -0.15, p=0.0009), knee ROM (SMD=7.80, 95% CI=4.15 to 11.45, p<0.0001), and physical function (SMD= -0.32, 95% CI= -0.51 to -0.13, p=0.0007) after CFA intervention.
As for the subgroup analysis, the significant improvements in pain, ROM, and physical function only observed when using oral CFA capsules instead of CFA cream.
No significant difference was observed in the degree of knee stiffness.

6RCTn=60 · small study2025

Einfach gesagt: Conclusion In patients with knee osteoarthritis, incorporating a CFA oral supplement into the treatment regimen provides superior efficacy in pain relief and range of motion improvement compared to placebo, while maintaining a favorable safety profile.

Zodeleva M, Pochkhua N, Rossato MS, Arziani E. · European journal of clinical nutrition (2025)

Subjects/methods 60 patients (mean age: 66.0 ± 7.7 years, 85% female) with grade 3-4 knee osteoarthritis and a pain intensity of > 4 cm on the visual analog scale (VAS) were enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 1.5 g of oral CFA or a placebo for 60 days.
Results After 60 days of CFA assumption, the mean reduction in pain intensity (VAS) was -1.7 cm (95% CI [-2.0, -1.4]), showing a statistically significant difference compared to placebo (-0.6 cm, 95% CI [-1.0, -0.2]; p < 0.005).
The mean decrease in the WOMAC total score was also greater in the CFA group (-19.5 vs. -15.8), although the placebo-corrected effect was not statistically significant (-3.7, 95% CI [-8.3, 0.8]; p = 0.108).

40 knee-OA patients randomized to topical CFA cream or placebo for 30 days

Einfach gesagt: One week of a cetylated-fatty-acid (plus menthol) cream improved stair-climbing, balance, and reduced pain in arthritis of the knee, elbow, and wrist.

Kraemer WJ, Ratamess NA, Maresh CM, et al. · J Strength Cond Res (2005)

Single-group pre-post design, 28 participants with knee OA or severe elbow/wrist pain
Reported ~12% better stair-climbing and 'up-and-go', ~16.5% better balance/strength
No control group — uncontrolled open-label design limits causal inference
