Is this TUDCA made from Bear Bile?
NO this TUDCA is NOT made from bear bile. It is a synthetic compound that is manufactured using a very precise process.
This process was developed and has been used in Japan since 1954 and is just as powerful if not more powerful than it’s original source (bear bile).
We do not and will never condone the use of bears in the manufacturing of this product.
Our TUDCA is 100% Vegan. And is free from dairy, gluten, fillers and preservatives.

TUDCA: Powerful Healing Benefits (Liver Detox, Brain, Steroid Abuse & Thyroid)
The Benefits of TUDCA
Description
Tauro-Urso-Deoxy-Cholic Acid or as it's much easier to say; TUDCA,
is a bile acid that has been used for centuries in Chinese Medicine to treat liver related issues.
It also has high notoriety in the Bodybuilding world as a powerful PCT supplement.
Recent studies are showing far reaching benefits for the liver and whole body health.
TUDCA plays an important role in digestion, in particular the digestion of fat and absorption of fat soluble vitamins A D E and K.
It has also been shown to have promising benefits of the liver, by improving bile flow, phase 3 liver detoxification, and bile duct integrity.
It may also assist in improving cellular health by improving the degradation of cellular waste within the mitochondria and cell membrane. In the gut it may assist with improving microbiome diversity.
Studies show it may reduce endoplamic reticulum stress and protein misfolding, which may provide neuro-protective benefits in neuro-degenerative diseases such as ALS, Alzheimers, Parkinsons and Huntingtons disease.
Benefits Breakdown
-
Liver Support
The liver plays a huge role in your overall health and plays a major part in some of the most important functions in the body.
Including detoxification of harmful chemicals and microbes from your food and environment, immunity, hormone processing, digestion and even blood sugar control.
Therefore having a healthy liver is vitally important to overall health. Unfortuntely our modern lifestyle and dietary choices take a big toll on the liver.
Fortunetly through diet, life style and supplements we can dramatically improve the function and health of our livers. And TUDCA is a supplement that can have a dramatic benefit on the liver by helping improve bile flow and bile duct integrity.* Both of which are crucial in a healthy and well functioning liver.
-
Digestion Support
Many people now suffering from gut related issues such as digestive discomfort, acid reflux, leaky gut and absorption issues. Fixing gut health and digestion is multifacited approach and there is no one product or lifestyle choice that will fix everything. However using products that support digestion and the microbiome play a huge role in fixing the gut.And TUDCA can be a great way to improve digestion, in particular the digestion of fats. Bile is critical in the break down of fats so if your bile flow is poor or you have had your gall bladder removed then you are going to have a hard time breaking down fats as well as other nutrients from your food. TUDCA may assist with this by helping to improve bile flow and bile duct integrity and therefore improving your fat digestion and nutrient absorption, especially fat soluable vitamins A, D, E, K as well as omega fatty acids.TUDCA may also assist with improving microbiome health via improved bile which is critical for destroying harmful bacteria.*

Cellular Health
The integrity and health of your cells is vitally important to your overall all health. And one of the most important factors in celluar health is your mitochondria, which are essentially the powerhouses of your cells.
And since the liver is responsible for so many processes it requires a lot of energy and therefore a lot of mitochondria. And it has been shown that TUDCA actually helps to protect the mitochondria in your cells by reducing the release of a molecule called BAX entering the mitochondria and causing it’s early death. Therefore improving mitochondria levels and function within the liver which can lead to an improvement in your overall health.*
Dosing Intructions
Dosage:
Studies suggest taking anywhere between 250mg – 1500mg. We suggest taking 1 capsule per day. Each capsule is 250mg and there are 60 capsules in a bottle.
When to take:
You can take TUDCA whenever you like. However we suggest taking it a night for maximum benefit. It can also be taken before fatty meals to improve digestion
Side Effects?
There are no known side effects of taking TUDCA, occasionaly some people may encounter ‘detox symptoms’ or ‘Herxhiemer reaction’ such as tiredness or cold and flu like symptoms. These are just part of your bodies healing and should surpass in a few days or week.
Taste and Smell
TUDCA has a very potent Acetone-like smell and horrible taste. This is because TUDCA is a bile acid and we do not use excipients or fillers in our products. The smell and taste being so strong is indicative of the purity and quality of the product and is nothing to be concerned about; this taste is why we encapsulate it, but the smell is unavoidable!
Testimonials
"I have been trying to heal my gut for years and tried just about every supplement possible to heal my gut but nothing seemed to make much of a difference. Then I was introduced to Ultimate GI and given a chance to try it. Even though I trusted the person who recommended it I still was a little sceptical because I'd tried so many other supplements. But I gave it a go and Wow. Within a matter of weeks I saw a very noticeable improvement in my digestion I no longer reacted to foods the way I used to. In fact for the first time in years I was able to eat and enjoy Christmas deserts without feeling awful like I usually would. I've also become far less reactive to foods and my digestive issues and lethargy I once had after eating have basically gone all together. Best decision I made to try this supplement. Well and truly lives up to its name. If you're someone like me who has tried just about every supplement then give this one a try. You will be glad you did."
