How does NSI® D-Ribose Bioenergy Ribose™ work?
D-ribose (also known as just “ribose”) is a naturally occurring sugar used by every cell of the body. It’s an essential compound 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 genetic material, DNA and RNA, certain vitamins and other important cellular compounds. Research has shown that ribose helps the body to maintain healthy energy levels in the heart and muscle tissues. It maximizes energy recovery and may also increase energy reserves. If you work out more than three or four times per week, your body may not have the rest time it needs between sessions for heart and muscle energy pools to return to normal levels. Taking NSI® Bioenergy Ribose™ may shorten the time needed by heart and muscle tissue to replace energy lost through vigorous exercise. Exercise can greatly increase oxygen utilization, which increases the generation of free radicals, or unstable molecules that
