TUDCA (Tauroursodeoxycholic acid), 500 mg, 60 capsules Double Wood

TUDCA is a bile acid that the human body synthesizes naturally from cholesterol in small amounts. This substance, known and used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine, supports the healthy secretion of bile from the liver to the intestines and has a beneficial effect on a number of other organs and systems of the human body.


Description and main properties of tauroursodeoxycholic acid
Tauroursodeoxycholic acid, also known as TUDCA, is an amphiphilic acid (meaning it has both a hydrophobic and hydrophilic part) that is secreted by bile to help break down and absorb fats from the body. Until recently, it was popular mainly among hardcore bodybuilders who used it to protect the liver from overload caused by high-protein foods and supplements. However, it turns out that this substance has much more beneficial properties for human health.

However, lovers of sculpted muscles are not the first to appreciate the health benefits of tauroursodeoxycholic acid. It has been known and used for thousands of years in Chinese traditional medical practices to treat a variety of conditions. The substance makes up up to 76% of the bile juice of Asian bears – mainly black (Selenarctos thibetanus) and brown (Ursus arctos) bears, and is known in the Far East precisely as bear bile. In dried form, it falls into the category of animal-derived medicines in the ancient Chinese pharmacopoeia and is included in 396 traditional recipes. According to the categorization, it is a cold medicine with a cool nature and a bitter taste (fire), which affects the liver, bile and heart meridians.

In recent decades, modern pharmacological research has confirmed that tauroursodeoxycholic acid possesses a wide range of medicinal effects, including hepatoprotective, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, hypolipidemic, and others.
Tauroursodeoxycholic acid significantly increases – according to some studies by up to 500% – the secretion of bile. It has been found to increase not only the quantity but also the quality of bile and stimulate the body to produce more of its own TUDCA.
Protects mitochondria in the liver - Mitochondria are cellular organelles whose main function is energy production. They also play a key role in a number of metabolic processes such as programmed cell death, cell proliferation,


Benefits of taking tauroursodeoxycholic acid
[b]Stimulates bile secretion - Tauroursodeoxycholic acid significantly increases – according to some studies by up to 500% percent – ​​the secretion of bile. It has been found to increase not only the quantity but also the quality of bile and stimulates the body to produce more of its own TUDCA.
Protects mitochondria in the liver - Mitochondria are cellular organelles whose main function is energy production. They also play a key role in a number of metabolic processes such as programmed cell death, cell proliferation, steroid synthesis, and others. In the liver, where their content is highest compared to other organs of the body, they are a key factor in the neutralization of ammonia. It has been found that tauroursodeoxycholic acid protects mitochondria by suppressing the secretion of a pro-apoptotic agent known as Vax, which causes their premature death.
Helps Lower Liver Enzyme Levels – Elevated enzyme levels are a sign of some type of liver dysfunction and are commonly used for early diagnosis of liver problems. Scientific studies have shown that taking tauroursodeoxycholic acid significantly contributes to normalizing the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), and alkaline phosphatase.


Scientific research shows that the anti-apoptotic properties of tauroursodeoxycholic acid have promising therapeutic potential in a number of conditions such as cardiovascular disease, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and heart attack. In recent years, it has been found that TUDCA can significantly help prevent vision loss, especially in cases of retinal degeneration.
