Ribose is one of the essential elements for the formation of ATP, the universal energy molecule in the body. Physical exertion can deplete ATP reserves in cardiac and skeletal muscles. As the limiting substrate in the synthesis of nucleotides, including ATP, Ribose plays a vital role in the replenishment of ATP, thus promoting energy and muscle recovery. Usage: Take 1 teaspoon, up to 3 times daily with water or other liquid, before or after training or as directed by a qualified healthcare professional.
