Why Calcium AKG (Calcium Alpha-Ketoglutarate)? *
Calcium AKG (Calcium Alpha-Ketoglutarate, CaAKG) is a mineral salt form of alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG), a naturally occurring organic compound present in human cells.
Alpha-ketoglutarate is a well-characterized intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle — a central biochemical pathway described in cellular metabolism research.
In this formulation, alpha-ketoglutarate is bound to calcium, creating a stable compound suitable for nutritional supplementation. Each capsule provides 500 mg of high-purity CaAKG, allowing a daily intake of 1000 mg when taking two capsules.
Because AKG is naturally present in biological systems, Calcium AKG is described in scientific literature as an endogenous metabolic intermediate.
