What is D-Ribose?
D-Ribose, also known as just ribose, is a naturally occurring sugar found in every living organism and used by every cell of the body. It is an essential component in energy metabolism, serving as a building block for adenosine triphosphate (ATP)—the body’s basic energy source. D-Ribose is also the carbohydrate backbone of DNA, RNA and other important cellular compounds.*

Why is D-Ribose So Essential?
Extensive scientific research has found that D-Ribose assists the body in maintaining healthy energy levels in the heart and muscle tissues. Additionally, studies have shown that ribose maximizes energy recovery and may also bolster energy reserves.* If you exercise regularly, your body may not be given the rest time it requires between sessions for heart and muscle energy pools to return to normal levels.

It has been found that supplementing with D-Ribose may shorten the time needed by heart and muscle tissue to replace energy lost through exercise. Studies have also found that D-Ribose supplementation may reduce free radical formation and help relieve common post exercise muscle cramping and soreness.* Whether you’re a weekend warrior, into a daily exercise regimen or just concerned about your cardiovascular and muscle health, D-Ribose can give your body the energy boost it needs.*
