Calcium a-Ketoglutarate (CaAKG) Anti-Aging & Bone Support
CaAKG Antioxidant & Longevity Ingredient
Calcium a-Ketoglutarate (CaAKG) – Premium Functional Ingredient for Longevity, Bone Health & Antioxidant Support
Calcium a-Ketoglutarate (CaAKG) is the calcium salt of α-Ketoglutaric Acid (AKG), a critical intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. AKG plays a central role in cellular energy metabolism and exhibits diverse health-promoting effects, including anti-aging, bone health support, immune system modulation, muscle preservation, and cellular protection.
CaAKG overcomes the limitations of free AKG—such as gastrointestinal discomfort and low bioavailability—by providing a stable, neutral or slightly alkaline compound with improved absorption. Our CaAKG is a white crystalline powder, produced under advanced manufacturing equipment, ensuring high purity, low impurities, and excellent quality, suitable for nutraceuticals, functional foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare products.

AKG Antioxidant & Longevity Ingredient
α-Ketoglutaric Acid (AKG) – Premium Functional Ingredient for Longevity, Antioxidant, and Cellular Health
α-Ketoglutaric Acid (AKG) is a dicarboxylic acid with a ketone group, naturally occurring as a key intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. AKG is widely recognized for its versatile physiological benefits, including cellular energy support, antioxidant defense, anti-aging, immune modulation, muscle preservation, and metabolic balance.
AKG participates in amino acid metabolism by reacting with ammonia to produce glutamate, which can further form glutamine, supporting protein synthesis and nitrogen balance. It also contributes to succinate production via hydration, generating CO₂ and H₂O, and scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS). AKG serves as a critical energy donor for intestinal and other metabolically active cells, and helps maintain cellular redox homeostasis.
