Recent studies suggest TUDCA possesses potent neuroprotective and hepatoprotective properties. Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid (TUDCA) is a naturally occurring bile acid found in the bodies of humans and other animals, particularly bears.

For centuries, traditional Chinese medicine has utilized bear bile for its therapeutic properties, largely attributed to the presence of Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid (TUDCA). However, today’s TUDCA supplements are predominantly synthetic, representing a significant shift away from the cruel practice of bile extraction.

Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a key component in treating certain liver diseases, was historically sourced from the bile of bears. However, modern medicine has developed alternative and ethical production methods, making bear bile extraction an outdated practice.
