Dr. Nicola Vannini is a researcher in the Department of Oncology at the University of Lausanne, in Switzerland.
In this conversation we discuss new research that suggests dietary supplementation with Urolithin A could help boost the immune system. The study (in mice) suggests the compound, which targets mitochondria, is able to reverse the decline in hematopoietic stem cells, which play an essential role in blood health.
Could these findings offer hope to older adults as they experience a decline in the efficiency of their immune system?
