Sometimes we overlook the importance of energy in the body. We forget that if we are lacking energy, we are going to start having some missteps or misfirings occur. Many times, we don’t even recognize the true impact that low energy states can have on our overall health and wellness. Today, I want to talk about one particular type of energy in the body and why it’s important to maintain this, especially when we look at cardiovascular health, skeletal muscle health and fatigue.†
As we get older, our cellular energy levels begin to decline. We frequently talk about this in the setting of Coenzyme Q10 because even though it’s made in the body, age and certain medications can block the proper manufacturing of this important nutrient. This can cause you to feel more fatigued or tired, which is an indication that our cells are not functioning at their optimal performance.†

There is something in the body that plays a really critical role in maintaining and restoring energy levels and that is ribose. D-ribose has been shown to increase cellular energy production within the heart and skeletal muscles. If we do not have adequate D-ribose, then we’re going to have a hard time in terms of energy recovery, as well as muscle recovery.†
Ribose is something that is naturally-occurring within our system. It is an essential component to our cellular energy management. It also yields the ability to fend off oxidative stress because it plays a role as an antioxidant. In this role, it can help to ease inflammation.†
Supplementation with D-ribose is a very good choice for those who are dealing with cardiac issues. Ribose works in the production of ATP, as well as in helping to fend off oxidative stress within the heart itself. It is free radical damage that causes an inflammatory response within the heart. If we have adequate levels of ribose, then we know that the cells themselves are being protected from oxidative stress. Ribose can be found in our Ribose Complex, which is a great formulation.†
In this episode, Amanda Williams, MPH discusses the powerful nutrient ribose. She details how ribose helps support heart health and energy levels and explains how it also acts as an antioxidant.†

At some point in your life, you’ve probably experienced something you’ve described as feeling dizzy. You may have also heard of vertigo, which many people describe as a sensation of dizziness.†
Dizziness falls into four different categories. It can be vertigo, presyncope, equilibrium or lightheadedness. Vertigo itself is incredibly common, as well as incredibly problematic for anyone who has ever experienced it. It is a very unpleasant feeling where you feel like the room is spinning or like everything is very, very off.†
Estimates show that about 40% of American adults will experience vertigo at some point in their lives. Women are significantly more at risk for the development of this issue than men. This can come down to hormone differences. There are also certain neurological conditions that can cause vertigo, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), a stroke and migraine headaches.†

Many times, vertigo will resolve on its own, but for some people, this can be a long-term, lingering problem that can impact their day-to-day lives. There are supplements that can help with this persistent feeling of dizziness. We recognize through scientific research that supplementation with Vitamin D and calcium can be very helpful for the most common form, known as positional vertigo.†

Dietary implications also play a significant role depending on the type of vertigo someone is experiencing. Someone who has Meniere’s disease, for instance, may benefit from a low sodium diet. Coenzyme Q10 has also been shown to help offset the dizziness, while ginger root extract has been shown to ease inflammation correlated with dizziness.†
In this episode, Amanda Williams, MPH discusses the different types of vertigo, as well as factors that could potentially cause this issue. She shares information from studies about supplements and nutrients that can help with persistent dizziness, as well as her own personal experiences with it.†
