Brand: E-Pharm
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
The primary active compound in Ursobolic is Ursolic Acid, a pentacyclic triterpenoid naturally found in apple peels and holy basil. At the cellular level, Ursolic Acid functions by activating the Akt/mTOR pathway, which is essential for protein synthesis and muscle hypertrophy. It also promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, enhancing cellular energy production (ATP) and potentially improving insulin sensitivity. By inhibiting muscle atrophy signaling pathways, it helps preserve lean mass during caloric deficits or aging.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports lean muscle mass retention
- May enhance physical performance and strength
- Promotes healthy metabolic function
- Provides antioxidant support at the cellular level
Usage & Safety
The standard serving size is 3 capsules. It is best taken with a meal containing dietary fat to maximize absorption of the Ursolic Acid. Consistency is key; daily use is recommended for optimal results. Consult your physician before use, especially if taking prescription medications, as interactions are not fully documented. Discontinue use if adverse reactions occur.
