Ellagitannins convert to urolithins in the gut (person-dependent) — compounds shown to stimulate mitophagy, clearing dysfunctional mitochondria and boosting cellular energy efficiency.

Vitamin C at 36% DV supports collagen cross-linking in connective tissue — critical for tendon and ligament integrity under repeated high-load training stress.

Anthocyanin + ellagitannin combination synergistically suppresses COX-2 inflammatory enzyme activity, reducing exercise-induced joint inflammation at the enzymatic level.
