HAs anyone ever used Pryuvate? If so does it help with fat loss and help build leaner muscles. I heard that it does .

Does it help? Yes, in clinical studies Pyruvate is wonderful for cutting and adding some LBM at the same time.
Problem - It's DAMN expensive if you want results. Most companies make it in about 750mg. capsules. 60 of 'em will cost you about $40.00 (maybe more). The amount of pyruvate used in the study (if you read it carefully) is about 40-50 GRAMS a day for about 6 weeks. do the math, that's going to cost you around....... $1700.00 (almost 1 bottle per day). |

To add a correction to my previous post, I just found a bottle on this site that's 12.00 for 90 1000mg capsules (still not economical in any sense). I was unaware of this product, lol. Most other companies, though, do charge out the ass for it.

Actually a clinical study indicated 6 g/day pyruvate was effective for fat loss. Making it still expensive but not as much so.
Problem is this. Clinical studies have been very promising. But I haven't read a single piece of positive feedback. So it depends on which one you put more credence in. -------------------- David Tolson

Really, only 6g? All the ones I've read are outrageously high on the doses. Still, it is expensive.

I use it for cycling and think it does do something.I´m less stressed and think my capacity went up.It helps also to shred some fat off,but who knows if pyruvate is the thing while burning 2500kcals/day in a few hours*g*
you can get it quite cheap if you do some search on ebay i.e. . Here in Germany i can get it for about 20€/300gr. . |
