:Pyruvate:

Functions:

• significantly reduce fat
• prevent yo-yo effect
• reduce cholesterol
• increase endurance by 20%
• prevent aging and degeneration due to glycation

Pyruvate is the starting compound of the Krebs cycle, which supplies 90% of cellular energy as ATP.

Pyruvate is a carbohydrate naturally found in red apples, cheeses, and red wine.  A discovery at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine shows that a diet supplemented with Pyruvate increases fat loss by up to 48% and minimizes loss of body protein.

Pyruvate may accelerate fat loss by increasing cellular respiration, the amount of energy the mitochondria use. Calcium Pyruvate may even reduce fat without exercise making it an attractive fat burner without any caffeine or stimulant herbs like ephedra. For those who are able to maintain a strict exercise routine, but have trouble losing weight, Pyruvate may help attain goals without nervousness or jitters associated with most thermogenic fat burners.

The fact that Calcium Pyruvate may increase endurance by up to 20% makes it even more attractive to athletes and bodybuilders because of how hard it is to get intense workouts when you cut back calories.

Calcium Pyruvate also prevents glycation, a process linked to aging and degenerative diseases such as diabetes, cataract and glaucoma.
