TORQ BULQ D-Ribose Powder - Pure Vegan Recovery Supplement (100g)

TORQ BULQ D-Ribose Powder is 100% pure, pharmaceutical-grade D-ribose for climbers and athletes who want to add ribose to their post-exercise routine. One ingredient and nothing else: no colours, flavourings, artificial sweeteners or preservatives.

D-ribose is a naturally occurring sugar involved in making ATP, the compound your cells use to transfer energy. TORQ positions this standalone powder for use after strenuous training and through periods of heavy load. It tastes naturally sweet and slightly toffee-like, so it's easy to stir into a cold drink, recovery drink or protein shake, or take straight. Choose it if your recovery product doesn't already include ribose. TORQ Recovery Drink does, at TORQ's recommended level, so you may not need extra alongside that.

Good to know

• Pack size: 100g (500g or 1.5kg available on request)
• Serving: one level scoop is approximately 4–5g. TORQ recommends one scoop immediately after training
• TORQ's reasoning: energy for exercise comes from breaking ATP down into ADP and phosphate, which your body rebuilds by metabolising carbohydrate, fat and protein. After maximal high-load exercise, muscle ATP and ADP pools can fall by as much as 20–28% through loss of AMP from the cell, and the body can take days to make its own ribose from glucose. Ribose in food is largely lost when meat is cooked and plant foods contain too little to matter. Supplemental ribose is absorbed quickly and can be converted to ATP in the muscle cell
• Food supplements should not replace a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Follow the packaging instructions and seek professional advice before using supplements for a diagnosed health condition

Who it's for

Climbers, boulderers, runners, cyclists, triathletes and gym-goers at any level who want a standalone ribose supplement for post-exercise nutrition during heavy training blocks.
