INSIGHT

Mitophagy Is Mitochondrial Housekeeping

  • Mitophagy is mitochondrial "garbage cleanup" that recycles dysfunctional mitochondria and prevents inflammation.
  • Urolithin A activates mitophagy to improve mitochondrial quality and systemic bioenergetics.
ADVICE

Supplement Instead Of Relying On Foods

  • Don’t rely on pomegranate or walnuts alone because most people's microbiomes make little or no urolithins.
  • Consider direct urolithin supplementation for consistent and higher circulating levels.
INSIGHT

Multiple Molecular Paths To Better Mitochondria

  • Urolithin A triggers mitophagy via the PINK1/Parkin machinery and improves mitochondrial efficiency signals.
  • It also upregulates SIRT1 and PGC-1α pathways supporting mitogenesis and vascular support in muscle.
