Application & Function
Calcium pyruvate, as a new type of nutritional supplement, not only supplements calcium but also promotes energy metabolism, enhances physical strength, improves endurance, supports muscle function, and maintains acid-base balance.
- Promote energy metabolism: Calcium pyruvate can participate in the energy metabolism process of cells, helping the body to use energy more effectively.
- Enhance physical strength: By improving energy utilization, calcium pyruvate helps to enhance an individual's physical strength and vitality.
- Improve endurance: During exercise, calcium pyruvate can support the sustained working ability of muscles, thereby improving endurance. Dr. Ronald Stank from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Research Center first had volunteers undergo endurance tests before the experiment, and then had them take calcium pyruvate for seven consecutive days. The results showed that calcium pyruvate increased the subjects' endurance by at least 20%. This is of great significance for athletes, as it brings tremendous vitality to physical laborers, high-intensity mental laborers, and athletes. However, its nature does not belong to doping, so its development and application have unlimited prospects.
- Support muscle function: Calcium pyruvate has a positive effect on muscle growth and repair, helping to maintain muscle health.
- Maintain acid-base balance: Calcium pyruvate helps maintain acid-base balance in the body and is crucial for maintaining normal physiological functions.
- Weight loss and fat removal: Calcium pyruvate is first replaced by hydrochloric acid secreted by the stomach into a weak organic acid - pyruvic acid (molecular weight of 88), which easily penetrates the cell membrane and enters the cell. Through permeation, it reaches the energy processing plant of the body's cells - mitochondria, oxidizing and burning the incoming fatty acids (mainly long-chain) for energy supply. The macroscopic manifestation of the body is fat loss and weight loss. The scientific experiment results from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Research Center in the United States are surprising: calcium pyruvate can increase fat consumption by at least 48%. Researchers at the institution instructed participants to consume high-fat foods while supplementing with calcium pyruvate on a daily basis, resulting in a 4% and 5% decrease in plasma cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, respectively. However, the cholesterol levels of those who only ate high-fat foods and did not consume calcium pyruvate remained unchanged; After receiving six weeks of calcium pyruvate feeding, their heart rate, blood pressure, and heart rate/blood pressure were measured and decreased by 9%, 6%, and 12%, respectively. Ronald Stank, a medical doctor at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Research Center, said that it manipulates fat metabolism by participating in fat oxidation.
- Improving cardiac function: Calcium pyruvate acts on the mitochondria of myocardial cells, providing timely energy for myocardial activity, enhancing myocardial pumping endurance, and thus prolonging the lifespan of the heart.
- Calcium supplementation: The calcium element in calcium pyruvate can be effectively absorbed and utilized by the human body, which can be used to supplement calcium sources, enhance bone strength and stability, and prevent calcium deficiency related diseases such as osteoporosis. In addition, calcium pyruvate also helps maintain normal nerve conduction function and participates in physiological processes such as cardiac contraction and blood pressure regulation.
- Improving liver function: Calcium pyruvate can also help improve liver function by promoting liver cell regeneration and repair, reducing liver burden, and improving liver function.
- Promote brain function: Calcium pyruvate can improve brain function to a certain extent, enhance memory and learning ability, and help prevent and treat brain function decline diseases such as senile dementia.
- Spasmodic: Calcium pyruvate can promote the conduction function of neuromuscular systems, relax muscles, and thus have antispasmodic effects. It can relieve muscle spasms and tension, and has certain therapeutic effects on some neurological and muscular system related diseases such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and muscle spasmodic pain.
