Tag: Atp supplementation

Every human cell relies on adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the body's energy currency, to function, with an average adult recycling approximately their own body weight in ATP daily. However, the idea of consuming ATP directly for an energy boost is widely misunderstood. Your digestive system breaks down ingested ATP before it can enter your bloodstream intact.

Recent studies in resistance-trained men suggest that oral ATP supplementation, particularly at 400 mg daily, can enhance muscular adaptations, including strength and size, especially when combined with intense resistance training protocols. But do ATP supplements actually work for the average gym-goer, or are these benefits limited to specific populations and dosages?
