-
Purified rosemary herb extract standardized for ursolic acid concentration with Bioperine® to enhance intestinal absorption.
There are no animal products included in these capsules.
-
Ursolic acid is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound found in many plants and herbs. It is said to have been first isolated and identified in the waxy substance that occurs naturally on apple skins.
Plant parts like the leaves of Chinese Empress tree (Paulownia tomentosa) and Rosemary herb (Salvia rosmarinus) produce ursolic acid in higher concentrations than most other plants.
-
Ursolic acid absorbs poorly in the digestive system on its own. Bioperine® enhances absorption and a modest amount has been included in each capsule. If you tolerate black pepper extract, taking an additional serving of bioperine each time you take Bear Capsules may further improve absorption.
Adding non-GMO lecithin 1200-2400mg every time you take Bear Capsules will further enhance systemic uptake.
An optimal serving for systemic calming has been proposed at 25mg of ursolic acid per kilogram of body weight per day in divided portions.
