Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid

Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid
Product Description

The primary use of TUDCA is as an active pharmaceutical and nutraceutical ingredient. It is used both as a digestive aid due to its choleretic effect and as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in several pharmaceutical formulations. It supports liver health by promoting bile flow and protecting hepatocytes from apoptosis.

Additionally, TUDCA exhibits neuroprotective properties, making it valuable in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Its role in reducing ER stress also positions it as a potential therapeutic agent in metabolic disorders.
