@caroline2: Please post a link with the best price that you find. I shop on Vitacost and Amazon. Not so much on eBay. Also started using nuts.com for açaí.
I haven't used D-ribose in a long time. Maybe I wasn't using enough to reach an effective dose. My neuropathy is so bad this summer, I don't even want to get out of bed. Hope everyone here is getting along. |

I just purchased the 500grams of bulk on ebay for 26.42...amazon has same deal and if you can get within that range, it's a good deal. It's the bulk powder.

^^Excellent! One pound on Vitacost is approx. $42.00. I'll look on Amazon (even though I hate Amazon).

Has anybody ever been shown to be deficient in D-ribose?

Oh Kiwi, is there a test for this deficiency? And if there is I'd bet I would come out very low if there is such a test...just like other nutrients in our bodies that we can be deficient in. I wonder if all those taking A/D drugs ever did a test for these to see if their bodies are deficient, ummm
Does our body naturally produce DRibose? Thanks. |

Does our body naturally produce DRibose?/QUOTE] D-ribose is found in all foods. It is also produced in the body by the pentose phosphate pathway. There is no evidence of deficiencies of it.

Understanding D-Ribose and Mitochondrial Function
With many pathologic conditions and aging, mitochondrial function declines, and there is a reduction in the production of adenosine triphosphate. The energy carrying molecule generated by cellular respiration and by pentose phosphate pathway, an alternative pathway of glucose metabolism. D-ribose is a naturally occurring monosaccharide found in the cells and particularly in the mitochondria is essential in energy production. Without sufficient energy, cells cannot maintain integrity and function. Supplemental D-ribose has been shown to improve cellular processes when there is mitochondrial dysfunction. When individuals take supplemental D-ribose, it can bypass part of the pentose pathway to produce D-ribose-5-phosphate for the production of energy. |
