Mechanism of action:
Ursolic acid has multiple effects on the body. One key mechanism is its ability to block cell signaling pathways - by blocking certain pathways, ursolic acid can change the way cells grow and replicate.
Ursolic acid may also inhibit the production of certain transcription factors and enzymes. Other potential mechanisms include increasing gene expression in bone cells, possible antibacterial properties, and promoting the activity of GLUT4, an important glucose transporter in the body.
Health benefits:
Ursolic acid may increase muscle strength and reduce laboratory markers that indicate muscle damage.
Ursolic acid may help reduce body weight, BMI, and waist circumference.
Ursolic acid can improve fasting glucose levels and optimize insulin sensitivity.

Ursolic acid can stimulate the growth of osteoblasts, a special type of cell that plays a role in bone formation. It blocks the growth of osteoclasts, which break down bone tissue.
