How to Use It
The trials using AMP for photosensitivity have used 160200 mg of AMP per day; however, the ideal intake of this supplement has not been determined. Research with shingles has used a special gel form of AMP injected into muscle; a doctor should be consulted for this form of AMP.
Where to Find It
The body creates AMP within cells during normal metabolic processes. AMP is also found as a supplement, although it is not widely available.
Possible Deficiencies
Preliminary research suggests that people with herpes simplex or herpes zoster (shingles) infections may have low levels of AMP; however, the clinical significance of this finding is unclear.1
