What is Oxaloacetate?

Oxaloacetate is a key ingredient in nutritional supplements.  It is an energy metabolite that has been on the market for more than a decade.  More than 6 million doses of oxaloacetate supplements have been taken by the general public.  The most popular brands of oxaloacetate are "benaGene" and "Jubilance".

Oxaloacetate serves many energy functions in the body, most notably in the "Krebs Cycle" or "Citric Acid Cycle" in the mitochondria.  The mitochondria are small structures in your cells that function as the “power plants” for the production of energy.  The Krebs cycle is an important part of the molecular machinery that allows the conversion of glucose (sugar) into energy.
