Pyruvate is a naturally occurring substance created in your body during the digestion of sugars and starches. Pyruvate as a supplement is derived from pyruvic acid and usually stabilized with calcium. Pyruvate is available in some foods such as cheese, dark beer, wine, and red apples but probably nowhere near the amount that studies have shown beneficial for weight loss.

Pyruvate has some research behind it that anyone wanting to lose weight may find very interesting. Some of the purported benefits of Pyruvate are weight loss, more energy, less fatigue, improved exercise performance, antioxidant activity, and lowered blood pressure.

The studies are very impressive with Pyruvate. Women taking Pyruvate lost 37% more weight and 48% more fat than women on an identical diet not taking Pyruvate, and after cessation of the experiment, women who had taken Pyruvate gained back 55% less weight than the women not taking the supplement. Although the studies were done using 30 grams of Pyruvate per day, other studies have since been done which show positive results with 5-6 grams per day. One fitness guru recommends 1 gram per every 10 pounds of body weight and other fitness trainers are saying that 5 to 6 grams per day are sufficient to experience results.

Pyruvate can be supplemented in capsule, tablet, powder, or liquid form. Prices vary from brand to brand. Purchase from a quality online supplier which only sells trusted brands. Pyruvate can be used with other weight loss supplements but it is a good idea to check with your health professional before taking any weight loss supplements.

Because Pyruvate exists naturally in the body, most will say that it is a safe supplement to take. Some users have reported an upset stomach from taking Pyruvate – so it may be a good idea to start with a low dosage and work your way up to your goal dosage.

Remember that herbal supplements are designed to “help” you in your weight loss efforts. Eat right and exercise and you will get the results you are looking for.
