Product Description: SupplementThird Party Quality Tested in the USAVeganSafe - Tested for Heavy MetalsGMP CertifiedHow It Works: Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) is a compound that occurs naturally in the body but tends to decrease with age. When taken as a supplement, AKG can bind to calcium salts (Ca-AKG), which research has shown plays a role in metabolic function and longevity. Calcium-AKG is a key ingredient in the process of generating ATP (energy) from food. Because it is an essential component of the cycle, it is involved in stimulating protein synthesis and energy production in the body. Calcium-AKG is also a source of essential amino acids needed to build collagen, a protein that supports bone and muscle health. Calcium-AKG promotes an internal recycling process known as autophagy. This process removes dysfunctional cells, cell parts, and proteins. Autophagy tends to decline with age, so Calcium-AKG can help support this process. Adding calcium to AKG slows the absorption of AKG, helping AKG work longer in the body.
