    D-ribose effects on Glycolysis and ATP production.

    Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose(sugars) into pyruvic acid which is then oxidized further down a series of reactions to produce what we know as ATP, or the energetic "currency" of biological systems. The original 4-carbon glucose molecule is obviously derived from carbohydrates, which won't be in much abundance due to a keto diet in which I plan on starting tomorrow. My question is while being on a keto diet, can i supplement the initial glucose 4-carbons by taking d-ribose throughout my diet. This would in theory keep the advantages of a keto diet, along with promoting ATP synthesis and significantly increasing my bodies anabolic potential and muscle growth. I can research it but I figured I might as well take a shot in the dark here and see of anyone knows. Thanks guys.
