Side-by-side comparison of mechanisms, dosing, interactions, and stacking potential.

Dihydroberberine (GlucoVantage)Urolithin A
CategorySupplementsSupplements
Standard Dose
Timing
Cycle Duration
Evidence LevelModerateModerate-Strong

Mechanism

Active metabolite of berberine with 5x greater absorption. AMPK activator that improves insulin sensitivity, reduces hepatic glucose production, and modulates gut microbiome. More bioavailable form allows lower dosing with fewer GI side effects.

Contraindications

  • Same as berberine — hypoglycemia risk with diabetic medications
B

Urolithin A

Supplements

Mechanism

Gut metabolite of ellagitannins that activates mitophagy — selective clearance of damaged mitochondria. Improves mitochondrial function, muscle endurance, and cellular energy production. Only ~40% of population can produce it endogenously.

Contraindications

  • Limited long-term safety data beyond 4 months
