Strom TUDCA 500mg - 100 days of liver protection and bile-flow support
Strom TUDCA is a targeted liver support supplement providing a full clinical dose of Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid. Each capsule delivers 500mg TUDCA. The 100-capsule bottle provides 100 single-capsule servings.
TUDCA is a naturally occurring bile acid formed through the conjugation of taurine with ursodeoxycholic acid; it is present in small amounts in human bile but produced in much larger quantities in certain animals. TUDCA has two principal mechanisms of interest: it is an endoplasmic reticulum stress reducer that supports hepatocyte survival under toxic load, and it acts as a hydrophilic bile acid that displaces more cytotoxic hydrophobic bile acids from the liver cell pool, reducing hepatocellular injury. It also exhibits mitochondrial protective and neuroprotective properties in cell and animal research. At 500mg per capsule Strom delivers a dose consistent with those used in clinical liver studies.
What separates Strom TUDCA from standard liver support supplements containing milk thistle or N-Acetyl Cysteine is the mechanism and potency. Milk thistle works primarily through antioxidant pathways; NAC raises glutathione precursor status. TUDCA acts at the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial level, providing a complementary and in many cases more potent hepatoprotective effect under high toxic load conditions relevant to the enhanced athletic population.
TUDCA suits bodybuilders using oral anabolic compounds with significant hepatotoxic potential, athletes post-cycle seeking active liver rehabilitation, and anyone with elevated liver enzymes looking to support hepatic recovery. It is not a replacement for medical management of liver disease. Contains no major allergens.
