Charava Urolithin A 500mg 30s

Urolithin A is produced by gut microflora from foods rich in ellagitannins. Urolithin A has been shown to improve mitochondrial health preclinically and in humans. Not everyone has a microbiome capable of producing Urolithin A, making supplementation with Urolithin A an appealing strategy.

One of the biggest benefits of urolithin A is boosted cellular energy in the mitochondria. Famously known as the powerhouse of the cell, mitochondria are microscopic organelles that convert glucose and oxygen into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for energy.

Unfortunately, mitochondrial function declines with age, impairing the mitochondria’s ability to produce enough energy. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the nine ‘hallmarks of aging’ that cause cellular and molecular damage to the body that can lead to age-related illness.

For those who are less physically able, urolithin A can be used to boost mitochondrial health without the need for exercise. Available from the diet and more effectively, from dietary supplements, urolithin A has been shown to promote mitochondrial health and muscle endurance. It does this by improving mitochondrial activity, specifically by activating the process of mitophagy.
