Started taking Black Currant Extract as a more holistic approach to my glaucoma after reviewing recent studies. Pyruvate has been show to help with the visual field results. To early to tell how it holds up long term but the pills are small and easy to swallow. Now is a name I trust and the product is high quality.
Energy Production Cellular Fuel Calcium Pyruvate A Dietary Supplement Steroid Free Vegan Kosher Non-GMO Halal GMP Quality Assured Pyruvate, or pyruvic acid, is a biochemical compound that's involved in a number of metabolic processes in the body, including the metabolism of fat, proteins, and carbohydrates, the storage of glycogen, and the production of cellular energy. Pyruvate is necessary for the citric acid cycle (or Krebs cycle), which is the process through which our cells produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the body's primary chemical fuel and powers many vital functions, including energy production, muscle contraction, and cellular fuel replenishment.

This calcium gives me energy, which is really appreciated since I have severe ME/CFS. I have problems with my food metabolism and I have too little pyruvic acid. This helps with that! Too bad that there are supplier issues because this supplement doesn't exist otherwise in my country. I'm also deficient in calcium so this supplement works so well for me.
Effective Fitness Supplement! NOW Foods Sports Pyruvate offers excellent quality with pure ingredients. The taste is neutral, and the dosage is easy to follow. This supplement provides real benefits for fitness and training, supporting energy and performance during workouts. It integrates well into any diet and helps maximize results from consistent exercise.
Calcium pyruvate can convert into acetyl-CoA, which fuels the Krebs cycle in the mitochondria to produce ATP (energy). Serves as an alternative energy source during exercise or fasting.
I read somewhere that pyruvate seems to greatly reduce fatigue associated with exercise, improve aerobic endurance times, reduce body fat, and seems to increase muscle mass, power, and strength when combined with creatine. It also appears that creatine and pyruvate together work better than either one alone. I train hard daily and wanted a quality supplement to boost my workout and this seems to work wonders.
I've been taking these for a few months now and really haven't seen any noticeable benefit, so will probably stop buying them since I already take quite a few supps and try to keep them a minimal as possible. I have been having more esophageal irritation, spasms and reflux lately which I suspect may be exacerbated by this supplement as I believe it can cause digestive irritation for some.
I read that pyruvate is a appetite suppressant and can burn fat. I will tell if this works for these purposes after one month or more.

good quality, natural ingredients, safety packaging, no taste, for immunity
I have oxalate dumping going on and I was advised to take calcium citrate but it irritates my stomach so this form was suggested. It works! No stomach upset!
