    D-ribose is a pentose sugar that plays a role in the production of energy intermediates, DNA, and RNA. It is due to this reasoning that D-ribose is investigated in instances where ATP concentrations (relative to total nucleotides) seem to be reduced, namely cardiac insults and prolonged physical exercise.

    D-Ribose is most often used for Healthy Aging & Longevity. The Examine Database covers Coronary Artery Disease, Fibromyalgia, and 2 other conditions and goals.
