Urolithin A is a compound 30-40% of people can make from pomegranate, raspberry, and walnut ingestion. The rest of us don’t have the right bacteria. If you have those bacteria, you still don’t make much.

Urolithin A are available, though, and I’ve previously posted on this. The first reputable form available was through Amazentis, which sells through Nestlé’s Celltrient and Solgar lines, along with Amazentis-affiliated TimeLine Nutrition. I have now seen other companies selling a separately developed form, but have not tried it.

Urolithin A forces defective mitochondria in our cells to self-destruct, while creating new, defect-free mitochondria. Mitochondria are the “engines” that power our cells.

Exercise can also help your body naturally multiply healthy mitochondria, but I am uncertain if it helps trigger defective mitochondria to self-destruct.

Curious if pomegranate juice is as effective as the whole fruit?

trigger defective mitochondria to self-destruct.

Destruction of malfunctioning cell organelles is called apathogy, which can be induced by even a day of fasting. Removal of malfunctioning mitochondria is called mitophagy. I don’t know if time-based intermittent fasting also does that for mitochondria.

Apotosis, the destruction of malfunctioning cells, takes about 3 days of fasting to get started. The Fasting Mimicking Diet parameters put the body in a fasting state while still consuming some food (600-800 calories; <16g protein; 50-100g carbs; vitamins and micronutrients through vegetables, supplements, or green drinks).

Walnuts are high in linoleic acid (38% IIRC), which Dr. Mercola recommends 8g of less. (The SAD —Standard American Diet — is over 30% linoleic acid up from a historical 1%-2%, which leads to all kinds of health issues.)

“Researchers have recently completed a systematic study in worms”

Why would they restrict the study group to only Democrats?

I am only aware of one commercial company pushing UA. I am somewhat skeptical that the studies aren’t being funded by interested parties.
