Pyruvate is a natural fat buner nutrient that plays a critical role in the processes that control energy production in the body. It can be found in the cell mitochondria, the “power plant” of the cell. In the mitochondria, Pyruvate helps facilitate important metabolic processes that fuel the body.
Pyruvate is produced naturally in the body, however research indicates that supplementation with the nutrient may help the body use energy more efficiently. Pyruvic acid is chemically unstable, so it is stabilized by combining it with various minerals to form a salt.
