Ribose is a naturally occurring carbohydrate that helps facilitate the production of ATP. ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the primary source of energy for all cellular processes. Ribose helps support healthy energy levels in our heart and muscle cells.

This naturally occurring simple sugar will rapidly replenish cellular energy levels after heavy exercise. Research has proven that a 3-5gram dose of ribose returns cellular ATP levels to normal 340-430% quicker than without supplementation.

A 10-gram daily dose of ribose has also been found to be useful in the treatment of ME, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fybromyalgia.
