Calcium Pyruvate
Brief Introduction:
Calcium pyruvate is an organic substance, the molecular formula is Ca(C3H3O3)2, the molecular weight is 214.19, white crystalline powder, tasteless, very weak alkaline, almost neutral. Slightly soluble in water, stable in nature, can produce pyruvic acid after reacting with acidic substances.
As a raw material of medicine and food additive; Calcium pyruvate can accelerate fat consumption, increase activity desire, thereby reduce weight and improve body shape. At the same time, it also has the functions of lowering blood sugar, lowering blood fat, eliminating free radicals, etc.
