Dosage information
In research, the dosages used range from 3.6 g to 6 g, with higher dosing in people who have suffered burns, but a recommended daily dose has not yet been established.[1] Since the effects are dose-dependent, finding an accurate dosing recommendation will be an important part of ongoing research.[2]

Can a supplement containing alpha-ketoglutarate reverse biological age?
This study found that estimated epigenetic age (a marker of biological age, rather than chronological age) decreased by about 8 years after participants began taking a supplement with alpha-ketoglutarate and either vitamin A (for men) or vitamin D (for women) for 4 to 10 months.
