Ursolic Acid Supplement - Powerful and Natural Anti-inflammatory

Ursolic Acid supplement in vegetarian capsules offers significant benefits for muscle mass and overall health, as well as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiviral effects.

How is Ursolic Acid obtained?

Rosemary leaves contain precious substances. Ursolic acid and its isomer, oleanic acid, are chemically almost identical, their structure differing only in the position of a methyl group (CH3).

What are the benefits associated with Ursolic Acid?

Ursolic acid has traditionally been used for the skin as it repairs damaged tissues in the cutaneous barrier and scalp. It also protects the skin from photo-ageing and is a potent inhibitor of elastase, an enzyme present in the skin which attacks structural proteins. With its multiple properties, ursolic acid is therefore an important addition to the range of phytoceutical resources available for anti-ageing in general.

• Ursolic acid has anti-infection and anti-viral effects, more specifically against the herpes virus, adenovirus and enterovirus.
• Recent studies on rats have even indicated that its inhibitory power (reversible) on human leukocyte elastase may have potential in the treatment of inflammatory lung diseases such as H1N1 and SARS virus infections.
• Ursolic acid also has anti-microbial and immune-stimulant effects particularly in the treatment of tuberculosis.
• It may contribute to inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, so reducing enzymatic degradation of acetylcholine and improving cholinergic transmission.

What do studies show about Ursolic Acid supplementation?

Benefits for muscle mass

• Ursolic acid may help stem sarcopenia (muscle loss associated with ageing and certain diseases).
• Animal studies have demonstrated its ability to increase muscle volume and power
• According to researchers, to reduce body fat, fasting blood glucose, and cholesterol and triglyceride levels, by acting on two key hormones: IFG-1 and insulin.
• So effective is ursolic acid in humans that it is one of the most popular supplements with American bodybuilders.
• By regulating certain RNA messengers, it may also help maintain muscle mass in individuals following low-calorie diets.

Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory properties

Ursolic acid is a powerful and natural anti-inflammatory which inhibits human leukocyte elastase (HLE) as well as 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2 activity and prostaglandin synthesis. It also has antioxidant and anti-MMP-9 (matrix metalloproteinase-9) effects:

• In inflammatory pathways, it reduces the differentiation of Th-17 cells and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin IL17).
• It neutralises NF-kB, preventing initialised cells from reproducing and triggering the death of damaged cells. As a result of this effect on NF-kB, ursolic acid activates resting macrophages.

For maximum effect, take 3 to 6 vegetarian capsules of ursolic acid daily, spread throughout the day. Those wishing to achieve a more sculpted figure may also be interested other supplements available to buy at Supersmart such as Crominex 3+ for improving muscle mass/fat mass ratio. For muscle weakness, molecules with anti-ageing effects, such as nicotinamide riboside, are also available as nutritional supplements.
