Aldolase B
A liver enzyme that breaks down fructose-1-phosphate—its deficiency causes fructose intolerance and cellular stress.
Downstream Damage Starts Upstream
Aldolase B breaks down fructose-1-phosphate—but only after fructokinase has already consumed cellular energy and triggered stress.
This enzyme plays a vital role in clearing fructose intermediates, but if fructose intake or internal production is high, the system can become overwhelmed. Trapped metabolites, uric acid, and oxidative stress begin to accumulate, leading to fat buildup and insulin resistance.
SugarShield supports your metabolic defense earlier in the process—helping modulate the body’s response to fructose before energy is lost and damage begins. It's a smarter strategy for protecting your mitochondria, liver, and long-term metabolic health.
Explore SugarShieldWhat is Aldolase B?
Aldolase B is a liver-specific enzyme involved in the second step of fructose metabolism. It breaks down fructose-1-phosphate (produced by fructokinase) into glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
Why It Matters?
If aldolase B is absent or deficient (as in hereditary fructose intolerance), fructose-1-phosphate accumulates and traps phosphate, depleting cellular energy stores and causing severe metabolic distress.
Even Partial Saturation is Problematic
In healthy individuals, high fructose loads can overwhelm aldolase B, leading to temporary phosphate trapping and mitochondrial dysfunction.
Connection to Fructokinase
Fructokinase acts first—phosphorylating fructose and consuming ATP. Aldolase B follows, but if it can't keep up, damage accumulates. This makes fructokinase inhibition a powerful strategy to prevent overload upstream.
At LIV3, we believe protecting aldolase B from overload is essential for maintaining liver health and preventing ATP depletion and fat synthesis.

Luteolin: The Anti-Sugar Nutrient You’ve Never Heard Of (But Need to Know About)
Luteolin is a rare plant flavonoid shown to naturally quiet the fructose pathway—the same metabolic switch targeted by pharmaceutical fructokinase inhibitors. By protecting cellular energy and lowering uric acid and inflammation, it helps restore the stable, high-efficiency metabolism that modern diets have lost.
Huntington’s Disease Breakthrough: Gene Therapy AMT-130 and the Energy Failure Model
A new gene therapy has slowed Huntington’s disease progression for the first time — a historic breakthrough. Seen through the energy failure model, it also highlights how metabolic stress like fructose stacks on top of genetic insults, and why research on luteolin is showing promise across multiple neurodegenerative conditions.
Tylenol, Autism Risk, and Fragile Energy: What Does the Science Really Say?
The Tylenol–autism debate shows how easily developing brains can be tipped when cellular energy is fragile. Our research suggests a bigger story: the Fructose Model — a framework showing how daily sugar exposure creates the same low-energy state across the whole body.
The Fructose–Insulin Connection: What Doctors Aren’t Telling You About Weight Loss Resistance
Doctors often blame carbs in general, but that's only part of the story. To really answer what causes insulin resistance, we need to look at fructose. If the engine is the problem, pressing harder on the gas pedal won't help. Instead, the solution is to improve how the cell handles fuel and gradually rebuild insulin sensitivity.
