Tudca 500 mg by Body Bio

If your liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT) run high from fatty liver after a medical workup, a TUDCA supplement is a reasonable trial alongside diet and weight loss. It also makes sense when bile flow is sluggish—post-meal fullness with fatty foods, pale stools, or a history of low bile after gallbladder removal. Track changes on a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel plus GGT within 4 to 12 weeks to see if it’s doing anything meaningful.

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) is a water‑loving bile acid that thins bile and helps it flow, which can ease fat digestion and take pressure off bile ducts. In liver cells it reduces endoplasmic reticulum stress (the backlog when proteins misfold) and stabilizes mitochondria (your energy factories), which is why some patients see ALT and AST drift down. Evidence for neuro or “detox” claims is early; take it primarily for bile flow and liver enzyme support.

The suggested use is two capsules daily with food. Food triggers bile release and tends to cut down on nausea or loose stools. Many clinicians start at one capsule for a week, then increase if tolerated. Typical supplemental ranges are 250 to 1,000 mg per day; two capsules here land at the higher end, so reassess labs (ALT, AST, ALP, bilirubin, GGT) after 1 to 3 months before stretching the timeline.

Skip a TUDCA supplement if you have acute right‑upper‑abdominal pain, fever, or jaundice—those need urgent evaluation for obstruction or infection. Avoid if you’ve had a bile duct blockage or active gallstone complications unless your clinician is on board. Pregnancy and breastfeeding data are limited. Bile acid sequestrants like cholestyramine can bind TUDCA; separate them by at least 4 hours.
