Function and Application
Urolithin A is a metabolite generated by the gut microbiome from types of polyphenol called ellagitannins; urolithin A can act as a potent antiaging agent, playing a role in helping cells to replace worn-out mitochondria, which provide the body with energy and reducing inflammation. When muscles weaken as people age, it's often because their mitochondria are no longer working properly; research, including clinical studies in people, indicates that urolithin A can slow and even reverse this deterioration, boosting mitochondria and muscle health.
