- Maintains normal heart function.
- Decreases free radical formation during exercise.
Ribose is an essential pentose (5-carbon) sugar utilized by the body
to synthesize DNA, RNA and produce energy. (Ribose is a “sugar” distinct
from glucose. It does not raise blood sugar levels or lead to diabetes.)
Ribose is a fundamental building block of adenosine triphosphate (ATP – the
substance in which the body stores intracellular energy), the preferential
source of energy for skeletal muscle and heart tissue. Studies have shown that
ribose supplementation can enhance cardiac energy levels and support
cardiovascular metabolism. Further studies suggest that ribose plays a
role in supporting energy recovery after exercise. Exercise increases free
radical production in muscle tissue. Ribose may strengthen and support the
body’s crucial antioxidant defenses.
Research suggests that optimal heart function requires a consistent supply of
essential cofactor nutrients including CoQ10, D-ribose, L-carnitine and
Magnesium. Consider these other high quality Doctor’s Best products in
