Strategies to Restore Mitochondrial Function and Support Healthy Aging: The Role of Urolithin A

Mitochondrial decline is one of the core biological drivers of aging, contributing to fatigue, loss of muscle, slower recovery, and reduced resilience across nearly every organ system.

In this conversation, Dr. Kara Fitzgerald and Dr. Anurag Singh reviewed the clinical science behind mitophagy, the cellular renewal process that clears damaged mitochondria and restores energy production.

They covered how the postbiotic nutrient Urolithin A supports mitochondrial quality control and how emerging human trials are translating into real-world clinical application.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

What Urolithin A is and how it’s produced (plus, why most people can’t get enough through food)
How mitochondrial decline impacts aging, and why mitophagy is a critical step
Key findings from human clinical trials on the benefits of Urolithin A
Patients who can benefit from taking Urolithin A and practical considerations for including in your protocols

Live attendees joined the Q&A and had their questions answered in real time.
