PentoKan – a balanced combination of potassium, vitamin C and ribose – are necessary to maintain efficient energy metabolism. The convenient shape provides improved bioavailability, allowing the active substances to be absorbed faster and better.
A product specially created to prevent the lack of potassium in the cell – the “building block” of the body that will ensure healthy and proper functioning of the cells.
Benefits

- For all those who actively engage in physical exercises;
- When smoking and taking alcoholic and caffeinated drinks;
- During stress and fatigue;
- In case of insufficient nutrition, use of foods with a high salt content;
- Maintains a high level of energy and performance;
- For a healthy heart..
- For faster recovery after exercise;
Supports sodium-potassium exchange
For normal intracellular metabolism to occur, each cell needs a constant flow of nutrients and oxygen.
The sodium-potassium exchange acts as a pump in the cell of our body. For every cell in the human body, sodium ions are pumped to the outside of the cell and potassium ions are drawn into the inside and . This leads to an accumulation of differences in the concentration of ions on the outside and inside of the cell.
The sodium-potassium pump plays a key role in heart and kidney function, as well as all general transport processes in and out of the cell.
First of all – Pentokan is a good source of potassium. The nutritional supplement is its bioavailable form. Effervescent tablets, dissolving in water, form two organic forms of potassium – citrate and ascorbate. Effervescent tablets provide bioavailability of potassium up to 97.5%.
Vitamin C has a very important role – to transport potassium into the cell by regulating the conductivity of potassium through cell membranes.
Ribose plays an important role as an ingredient in this product: it is necessary for the synthesis of ATP molecules ( adenosine triphosphate ), which helps your body store and use energy for biochemical reactions. The process of moving sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane is an active transport process involving the hydrolysis of ATP to provide the necessary energy.
For this reason, the level of potassium in the cell is directly dependent on the level of ATP. If ATP is low, the potassium channel is fully open and potassium rapidly exits, cell activity decreases. When ATP is high, the channel closes, which ensures the preservation of potassium reserves, the cell is active and functions normally.
The action of the active ingredients
Ribose is needed for the synthesis of ATP molecules (adenosine triphosphate), which helps your body conserve and use energy for biochemical reactions. Ribose is very important for athletes: it improves recovery time and the result of training by increasing muscle energy and reducing fatigue. The energy from breaking down ATP drives many reactions in the cell, especially during exercise.
