Aspartic acid is a naturally occurring amino acid that can bolster mitochondria's energy processes, offering support for the Tricarboxylic Acid cycle. Believed to equip active cells such as heart and skeletal muscles with the necessary energy, aspartic acid's salts of potassium and magnesium have been used in studies. To nurture cellular bioenergetic mechanisms, 2 grams per day of aspartates balanced 1:1 has been suggested - including Vitamin B6 as a cofactor for optimal magnesium utilization.*
