Ursolic acid is a molecule (from a class of chemicals called pentacyclic triterpenoids) which increases brown fat production. (Brown fat burns calories vs white fat which stores them).
Ursolic acid is found in apple peel, holy basil, rosemary leaf, yerba mate.
This molecule shows some promise for supplementation by body builders except that it has a very low bioavailabily (.6%).
It may also have an anti-tumour effect as well as reduce fight or flight activity.
