Urolithin B is an urolithin, a type of phenolic compounds produced in the human gut after absorption of ellagitannins-containing food such as pomegranate, strawberries, red raspberries, walnuts or oak-aged red wine. Urolithin B is found in the urine in the form of urolithin B glucuronide.
Urolithin B VS Urolithin A:
Both Urolithin B and Urolithin A powder are used in supplements, but with different functional benefits. They work with a different mechanism of action. Urolithin A is mainly for the Anti-aging formula for its mitophagy mechanism while urolithin B is in sports nutrition formula as a muscle-building ingredient.
Urolithin A is a much more well-researched compound, it has been generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the , while urolithin B is not. There are more supplement brands using urolithin A than urolithin B.
Urolithin A and Urolithin B are closed related. Pomegranate extract contains both of these urolithins. Pomegranates are the zenith of fruit. After digestion, their constituent parts can be converted by gut flora into urolithin C and then further transformed into Urolithin D and A, and then Urolithin B. In this sense, urolithin A can be converted to urolithin B.
Consequently, small amounts of urolithin B can be found in the blood of individuals fed with pomegranate extract; however, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are much weaker than urolithins A.
However, urolithin B has its own advantage over urolithin A. It's able to increase muscle cell size and accelerate muscle growth.
Function and Application
Urolithin B, gut microbiota metabolite of ellagitannins, contributes toward multiple health benefits attributed to
ellagitannin-rich foods.
Urolithin B | A Newly Identified Natural Anabolic Agent
Urolithin B enhances the growth, and differentiation of C2C12 myotubes via increasing protein synthesis and repressing a certain pathway known as the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
Urolithin B induces muscle hypertrophy in mice and reduces muscle atrophy.
