There are very few supplements therapies that have ever shown to increase or boost energy. These few supplements have a profound effect on the tissues they target. One of the most useful supplements is D- ribose with or without carnitine. Ribose is a unique and powerful addition to any regimen. I prefer to use D ribose as a powder or a liquid. There are few companies that combine in liquid D ribose and L carnitine.
There is a great way to dramatically improve your energy production.
You must continue this regimen for at least 8 weeks ( the range is 6 - 12 weeks)
These are:
1. D ribose - 1 scoop is 5 grams - minimal 1 scoop once a day to titrated up to 5 grams 3 times a day
2. L carnitine - 2500mg per day up to 5,000 per day
3. Coenzyme Q 10 - the minimal is 200mg to 400mg. Studies recommend taking with a fatty meal. We use a variety of coenzyme Q10 preparations, Recently we have been using a gel chewable Coenzyme Q10- 300mg/day
4. Magnesium ( I prefer magnesium taurate) 200mg/day
5. B complex- either can be either B50 or B100. I would use a methylated version of B12 and folic acid as there are a percentage of patients who have a mutation and need the methylated form.
6. Some suggest acetyl L carnitine- I use this for the brain rather than l carnitine for heart and muscle.Some use 500mg twice a day for at least 6 weeks. To be honest I rather use L carnitine.
Until tomorrow
