I am making up some St Mark’s Solution and am wondering wether I can substitute Glucose for D-Ribose. Both are sugar but not exactly the same. I have lots of D-Ribose but no Glucose. Does it make much if any difference? If you don’t know then: St. Mark’s solution is a potassium-free glucose...

Background: Ribose is one of those supplements that have repeatedly been mentioned as helpful for ME patients. Some say it gives them slightly more energy than usual. Others say it works as a PEM-shielder, reducing the severity of PEM episodes. However, people who have problems regulating...

I began taking Tru Niagen yesterday. I had an immediate response. I took two capsules with D-ribose powder in the morning. I shortly noticed substantial improvements in mental fatigue and concentration. I took another capsule with more D-ribose midday and it allowed me to leave the house and...

...What are the consequences of very high DHEA? 1. Energy production: The transformation of glucose into ribose does not work anymore (DHEA suppresses Ribose-5-phosphate and glutathione) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23282133/ 2. Dose-dependent effect on ATP-production (small doses decrease...

Dear fellow users, I would like to inquire if there are studies about the sublingual intake of D-Ribose? Sadly I couldnt find any source. As D-Ribose is a form of sugar, does it significantly harm your teeth by taking it sublingually and keeping it in the mouth for several minutes? Also: Does...

Hello - Just wanted to pass this along. I've been taking 5gm of D-Ribose twice daily for 4 years and was recently diagnosed with mild memory loss and polyneuropathy. Albeit, there are a number of factors that could be causing this. Nevertheless, the risk of developing full on dementia...

" rs17602729(T;T) AMPD1 deficiency homozygous This is found in ~2% of all caucasians. The majority of people with the AMPD gene are asymptomatic, but in response to vigorous exercise, others have symptoms including early fatigue, muscle pain and muscle cramping. •...

I have tried two brands of d-ribose (Now Foods and Dr.s Best ) and both make me extremely sleepy. Is there any other supplement which I have to take to over come this sleepiness ? Thanks in advance.

...prefer not to rehash the issues from taking ALA with Mercury issues. My primary interest is how your body responded when you added ALA and ribose after you had addressed your methylation issues. Types of things I've been trying to find more info on: Did you find you needed noticeably...

I just got my d-ribose, "bulk supplements" brand, from amazon, and tried it out. I'm taking it for CFS, and had ordered the first brand i saw because i was having really bad CFS flareups and was desperate. I got it and it tastes like a sugar, which it is, tried a dose... Mild headache as...

...far in advance should i take an extra teaspoon to help get me through it, i've googled it but not come up with much except that when beginning Ribose therapy expect 2 weeks to see results (for heart failure). Also i've seen no evidence that one should divide doses at all except everyone says...

Just started taking d ribose and I think....possibly...maybe....I have a tad more energy. Maybe. I'm obviously hesitant to trust this, keep considering all the other things it could be, but I do seem to be able to do more. And my mind is a bit clearer. Mmmmm. Anyone else taken d ribose? What...

I have just ordered D ribose to help with PEM. My question is should I take it every day? Or just when I have. PEM?

...happened. Not sure if this is a low blood sugar thing or something else? It was a supplement to help mitochondria. Now, I'm ready to try D-Ribose and want to try to prevent any possible low blood sugar response. From reading through the posts, I gather what I need to do is eat some...

I'll be honest, d-ribose isn't a supplement I'm looking forward to. It's inconvenient, because I have to lug around a bucket of powder, or prepare a bottle of water pre-mixed every day. I'd love for it to be a flop lol. I just tried a scoop of 5g, and within 20 minutes, I'm finding myself...

Hi all, I have knocked EVERY single "co-factor" off Freddd's list of possible limiting factors besides D-Ribose. Has anyone experience any breakthroughs with D-Ribose? Heres a list off the top of my head of co-factors I have tried: -SAMe -TMG -B1 -B2 -B3 -B5 * -B6 -Biotin -Zinc -Copper -Coq10...

I have just started supplementing with d-ribose along with coq10 ( ubiquinol), l-carnitine and niacinamide. I have in the past tried supplementing with b12/d3/k2/magnesium/kelp/coq10 (ubiquinone) and multivitamins/b-complex. The reasoning behind these new supplements I am trying make sense in...

I just started taking D-Ribose. I took one dose yesterday evening, then another one with each meal today. It seems to be helping, but I got really bad diarrhea this afternoon and again this evening, and I think it's the Ribose. Has anybody else had this issue? Should I reduce the dose, or get...

Anyone tried taking D-ribose sublingually? Seems it feeds my gut candida so I need to find another way or stop taking it (and get way worse). I tried taking 2,5 grams with water in my mouth for ten minutes. Fifteen minutes after I got irregular heart beats and head ache (I never get head aches)...

...as it overwhelmingly adopts its thermodynamically stable pyranose form, rather than the reactive open-chain aldehyde form. Pentoses such as ribose and especially R5P (ribose-5-phosphate) are much more potent glycating agents, R5P reacting with amines 150-fold faster than glucose [4,5]. R5P...

Hi, I have just bought a bottle of Solgar's D-Ribose powder like this one: Opening it up and smelling gives a distinct smell of alcohol... I was wondering if it's expected. The bottle was sealed and the expiry date is 2017, so the product should be intact. thanks

...in bed and the muscle pain comes back. Then it needs some time until I´m back to "normal". My doctor told me I should try D-Galactose and D-Ribose. After I began taking Galactose, in the first few days I felt I got more energy. But then I got strong tingling in my lips, hands and feet. In...

Hi, I have found d-ribose helpful and am wondering what next to add. I would be interested to know what other mitochondrial supplements have been helping those who also take d-ribose. It would be great if you could give me the list you take and dose. Also, your opinion on what I should go for...

I started taking d-ribose a couple days ago and have definitely noticed that I seem to have more energy, maybe similar to having extra coffee, but wondering if this will translate to being able to actually do more. In general I limit my coffee to 1 small cup in the morning, as coffee seems to...

I have D-Ribose and D-Ribose Corvalen (with Malic and MAgnesium). I am finding that after four days of D-Ribose Carvalen I am feeling tired. I put this down to the possible reason that Magnesium is making me tired and messing with my salt levels. I just took some salt water and that gave me a...

I'm just about to start a D-Ribose supplement. Dr.Tietlebaum reccommends 5000mg three times a day for 21 days, then backing off. But I read elsewhere there is a caution against D-Ribose "rapid glycation" which causes amyloid-like aggregations. Anyone got any comments about this? Does...

Hi, Recently tried taking d-ribose because I've heard so many do well on it, and my main symptoms are fatigue and body ache. Anyway, i took 5mg of the CorvalenM with breakfast (scrambled eggs and a little bacon) on Saturday morning. At first I was fine, but after about 20 mins I had to go to...

...cyanocobalmin. I tried it and it seemed to work right away. But I still "ran out of steam" -- or ATP -- about 3 or 4 pm every day. I added d-ribose. I had tried it before intermittently and my body had different reactions ranging from wired to effective. I would also feel the energy drop...

Well...I found a jar of D-Ribose that I had bought about a year ago. I had tried it in the past and don't think it did much for me but decided I would give it a try. I took a scoop this morning in my coffee and within about an hour I felt so tired I could hardly keep my eyes open. Even now...

...Anyway, I'm still feeling pretty non-functional (I'm ME/CFS according to the ICCC, btw) so I'm thinking I should add in SAM-e and r-ribose and see what happens. Would love any advice!! But, especially brands and dosages. Also, any pitfalls with taking them? Also, do you think this is the...
