Great for Brain Fog and Fatigue!
By CharlieMQ
Life Extension D-ribose Powder, 150-GramsThoroughly recommended as the only thing to help me with my chronic fatigue brain fog symptoms.I have now been able to take up my promotion at work which I initially turned down due to my incapacity to think effectively.You do have to keep taking it, however, as I ran out a few weeks ago and within 2 days the symptoms returned. This brand seems to work better than others.

Brain and Cardio Performance Improvements
By H. T. Roberts
I hope this review is helpful to others. I had a positive experience, but there are things that may have contributed, as well. One thing important to say right away - Life Extension products are excellent.BACKGROUND INFO: Male, 40 yrs old. I do Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and weight training. I work in an engineering field. I need to be completely honest that I have not tried this product ALONE, but with a group of other products that make us what is called The Awesome Foursome, which consists of: Reacted Magnesium (1x/day); Carnitine(1x/day); CoQ10(1x/day); D-Ribose(2x/day). Also, be aware that I take other supplements: fish oil (3x/day), trans-resveratrol(1x/day), Vit D3 (5000 IU/day), Myomin (3x/day), and slow release DHEA (20mg, 1x/day).DOSAGE: I take one scoop, twice a day (morning and late afternoon).VERDICT: Since adding TAF to my supplement regime, I have seen a very noticeable improvement in my mental focus at work and performance in BJJ, as well as weight lifting. There's no nervous caffeine jitters or restlessness, just simple alertness and focus. My cardio performance during intense BJJ sessions has also noticeably improved. I think this has a two part reason: mental focus allows for less wasted energy via better technique; true energy production improvement in the muscle cells.I have also noticed that my mood is much, much better. Productivity at work is up, and I am more patient and positive, which has made for home-life to be much more enjoyable for all - I got pretty cranky at night due to all the physical demands of my hobbies :). My wife has noticed the old happy me coming back.One bit of advice: For any supplement, I recommend trying it for at least two weeks before grading its performance. I typically try only one supplement at a time, but I tried all four of TAF together for a month, and I definitely noticed a difference. I may scale back one supplement at a time to see if anything changes, as it will be an expensive long-term commitment for all four, considering my already expensive supplement regime.If you're interested in taking all four of TAF, I don't recommend doing what I did. Instead, add only one at a time, and see if you get an improvement. My total expense for TAF is about $70/month. Ouch!!!

Excellent supplement for people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
By Mertz
I have had CFS since 1994. This is one of those supplements that really helped me by providing increased energy and endurance. My husband even noticed the difference in my energy levels. I take one scoop in a small amount of liquid in the morning, and sometimes in the afternoon if I'm having a particularly bad day. As usual with this illness, nothing will make you 100% better, but this definitely helps! I am now going to try one that is perhaps a bit less expensive (from Swanson's Vitamins), since it seems I'll be taking this long term.
