Beyond Retinol: The Role of Urolithin A in Aging and Skin Health

Beyond Retinol: The Role of Urolithin A in Aging and Skin Health

Author: Dr. Kara Fitzgerald November 11, 2024 Duration: 58:54
Talking with Dr. Julie Faitg was a powerful reminder of just how much we’re discovering about mitochondria and aging. When you pair an elite mitochondrial scientist with a breakthrough nutrient like Urolithin A, the insights go beyond what you’d expect. Julie gives us this incredible look into how we can actually change the course of aging at the cellular level. This conversation made me rethink what we know about supporting long-term health and resilience, and I think it will do the same for you. It’s one of those big-picture, eye-opening conversations that I can’t wait for you to hear. ~DrKF
