Fatigue manifests itself, among other things, in a lack of energy, exhaustion, weakness, listlessness, and reduced performance and motivation. It can also be accompanied by irritability. Fatigue occurs acutely … Fatigue
Purine is an organic compound and a heteroaromatic with four nitrogen atoms, becomes the finished purine nucleus by five additional carbon atoms and forms the basic body of the entire substance group of purines. The latter are important building blocks of nucleic acids and at the same time the stores of hereditary information. Purines are … Purine: Function & Diseases
Products Gluten is found as a powder in commerce (e.g., Morga) and in flours. Structure and properties Gluten is a complex mixture of water-insoluble proteins found in the endosperm of cereal grains, particularly wheat, spelt, rye, and barley. Gluten is rich in the amino acids glutamine and proline and serves as a storage protein. In … Gluten
Background The “gluten” protein is a protein mixture found in many grains such as wheat, rye, barley, and spelt. Its high content of the amino acids glutamine and proline makes gluten resistant to breakdown by digestive enzymes in the intestines, which contributes to the inflammatory response. Gluten has elastic properties and is therefore an important … Celiac
As already mentioned, proteins consist of numerous amino acids, which are linked together to form a long chain according to the peptide principle. They are taken in through nutrition and are broken down in the gastrointestinal tract into smaller chains, so-called amino acids – two or amino acids – three chains. These smaller amino acid … Proteins Functions
Ribose is a sugar component of ribonucleic acid. One finds ribose in the nucleotides. These are molecules that are contained as the smallest components of the nucleic acid and, when combined, represent the smallest unit of information that enables the coding of the genetic code in DNA and RNA. The human body can synthesize ribose … Ribose
Ribose and muscle building Immediately after its discovery as a supplement in sports nutrition, ribose was put on a par with the better known creatine. However, there are fewer research results on Ribose, which prove a positive effect on muscle building. The opinions among the experts are therefore still far apart. Moreover, Ribose is not … Ribose and muscle building | Ribose
Side effect With the side effects it depends mostly on the dosage of the Ribose. Side effects usually only occur in case of an overdose, because otherwise ribose is a natural nutrient in our daily food and the body knows this substance. Taking ten or more grams of ribose on an empty stomach can cause … Side effect | Ribose
Ribulose Ribulose is a so-called derivative of ribose, the two should not be confused with each other. Ribulose has the same molecular formula and therefore the same number of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms as ribose, but they have a different composition and therefore give the two substances completely different chemical properties. Ribulose is also … Ribulose | Ribose
Importance of pentose-5-phosphate Pentose 5-phosphate plays a major role in the production of nucleotides, coenzymes and amino acids. Nucleotides are the basic building blocks of our genetic material, i.e. the DNA (carrier of our genetic code) and RNA (“building instructions” for various proteins etc.). Chemically speaking, a nucleotide consists of a phosphate part, sugar part … Importance of pentose-5-phosphate | Ribose
Products In many countries, vitamin B12 is available as a monopreparation in the form of injectables and as a dietary supplement. Vitamin B12 is also combined with other vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and amino acids. Low- and high-dose preparations are available. Structure and properties Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble B-group vitamin that contains cobalt as … Vitamin B12
