What is Calcium AKG?

Calcium-AKG is a salt form of alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG). 

AKG is a natural molecule that plays a pivotal role in cellular energy production and other metabolic processes carried out in the body.

☑️ Cellular Energy Production

☑️ Muscle Strength

☑️ Bone Health

What makes Xandro Lab Calcium AKG better?

• Made in a GMP-Certified
• Pure Calcium-AKG, highest purity of above 99%.
  
  

Did you know?

• Although containing calcium, Calcium-AKG differs from other generic calcium supplements by its main role to also support energy production.
• AKG is an unstable compound on its own and can readily degrade when exposed to moisture or high temperatures.
• By combining it with calcium, the resulting Ca-AKG compound is more stable and less prone to degradation.

Why supplement with Calcium AKG?

As we age, metabolic changes become increasingly pressing concerns for our overall health.

• Ca-AKG address these aging issues effectively by boosting cellular energy, aiding muscle recovery and exercise performance.

Scientific Evidence

1) Ca-AKG supplementation in 42 individuals for 7 months has shown to cause a reduction in biological aging of 8 years¹.

2) AKG increased muscle strength and endurance, in part by preventing muscle protein breakdown through a mechanism involving prolyl hydroxylase-3 and the β2 adrenergic receptor².

3) One study in postmenopausal women showed that a daily dose of oral Ca-AKG (6g AKG for 6 months) increased bone mass density by 1.6% from baseline³.
