Pyruvate (CAS NO.57-60-3) is the end product of glycolysis, which is converted into acetyl coA that enters the Krebs cycle when there is sufficient oxygen available. When the oxygen is insufficient, pyruvate is broken down anaerobically, creating lactate in animals (including humans) and ethanol in plants.
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.Pyruvate is currently known for having numerous benefits which include: reduction of fatty mass, the lowering of blood lipids, improved endurance during aerobic activity, increased ATP/energy production, and a decrease in the chance of regaining previously lost fat mass. It has also been hypothesized that pyruvate is most effective when combined with another supplement called dihydroxyacetone (DHA).
