Product Description
Calcium pyruvate is a calcium salt of pyruvic acid, a naturally occurring compound involved in cellular energy metabolism. It is used as a nutritional ingredient in dietary supplements, sports nutrition products, and weight management formulations where calcium and pyruvate supplementation are combined.
Calcium pyruvate provides a stable powdered form of pyruvate with calcium as the mineral counter-ion. It is commonly selected by supplement formulators for its compatibility with capsules, tablets, and powdered nutrition blends requiring a functional mineral-based ingredient.
Calcium pyruvate is an organic calcium compound formed by combining pyruvic acid with calcium. Pyruvate is an intermediate metabolite in carbohydrate metabolism and plays a role in the body's natural energy production pathways.
As a nutritional ingredient, calcium pyruvate is typically supplied as a white crystalline powder. It is valued for its stability, easy handling, and suitability for finished supplement manufacturing.
