What is Alpha Ketoglutarate Powder?

Alpha ketoglutarate powder is an intermediate compound in a series of reactions that produce energy for the body. It is a source of glutamate and glutamine. Glutamate, the main excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, increases bone formation. Glutamine is the main source of energy for cell division, enhancing protein, muscle development and immune function.

Alpha ketoglutarate also regulates amino acid synthesis, energy production, and free radical formation. It acts as a messenger molecule in many chemical reactions in the body.

Potential Benefits of Alpha ketoglutarate Powder:

1. Promote wound healing

Studies have shown that alpha-ketoglutarate supplementation can significantly improve wound healing.

2. Muscle loss

In a controlled trial, alpha ketoglutarate supplementation prevented muscle breakdown and increased protein synthesis, preventing muscle loss, in 21 people who had undergone surgical trauma.

3. Bone Health

Alpha ketoglutarate powder increases collagen production and iron absorption, which may increase bone density and strength, prevent bone loss and reduce menopausal symptoms. It also rebuilds bone tissue.

4. Immune function

Alpha ketoglutarate may improve immune function. In the body, it is converted into glutamine. Glutamine can increase levels of white blood cells. Supplementation of alpha ketoglutarate in nutritionally deficient elderly patients successfully improved overall health. This can be seen by increasing appetite and improving motor skills. It also shortens recovery time from serious illness and surgery.

5. Anti-aging

Supplementation with alpha-ketoglutarate delays aging in Caenorhabditis elegans.

6. Cyanide poisoning

Oral supplementation with alpha-ketoglutarate blocks the effects of cyanide, a potentially fatal poison.

7. Anti-cancer

The anticancer effects of α-ketoglutarate are still at the animal and cell stage, and further research is needed. Under no circumstances should you attempt to replace traditional cancer therapy with alpha-ketoglutarate or any other supplement.
