Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP)｜HerbBB ingredient encyclopedia

Why supplement?

Marked asPrimarySupporting

Primary

Support energy-charge regulation

When ATP is consumed, AMP rises and allosterically activates AMPK, promoting energy-producing paths and suppressing energy-consuming synthesis. During exercise or energy shortage, cells first sense through this monophosphate that metabolism should turn toward production.

Primary

Maintain the adenine-nucleotide pool

AMP can be rephosphorylated to ADP and ATP, or deaminated into IMP; infant-formula blends also include this member. Muscle and liver demand for this pool rises during repair and growth; everyday protein and nucleic-acid diets also supply this nucleotide.
