{"product_id":"d-ribose-pure-granular-powder","title":"D-Ribose (Pure Granular Powder)","description":"\u003cp\u003eRibose is the sugar in the backbone of RNA — the R in the acronym — and the sugar at the center of ATP, the molecule every cell in the body spends to do anything at all. It is a five-carbon sugar, and unlike glucose it is not primarily a fuel. It is a building material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body synthesizes ribose through the pentose phosphate pathway, but that route is slow, and it is the rate-limiting step in rebuilding the adenine nucleotide pool after that pool has been drawn down — which happens in tissues doing sustained work, particularly heart and skeletal muscle. Supplemental D-ribose bypasses the bottleneck, supplying the pentose directly for normal nucleotide synthesis and supporting the body's normal replenishment of ATP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt tastes faintly sweet and dissolves cleanly in water or juice. It is a sugar, so people managing blood glucose should discuss it with their clinician; large amounts on an empty stomach can lower blood sugar transiently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is purified, free-flowing granular D-ribose with nothing else in the jar — no diluents, binders, or fillers, per Ecological Formulas' practice since 1981.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in 450 g powder\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThese statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
