NSI Stabilized Pyruvate Complex -- 1000 mg - 120 Tablets

NSI Stabilized Pyruvate Complex -- 1000 mg - 120 Tablets

  How Does Pyruvate Work? Our bodies make pyruvate naturally every day during the digestion of sugars and starches. It is needed to start the Krebs cycle, which is an energy cycle in the body of enzymes and chemical actions that are direct precursors to the energy, ATP. Pyruvate not only supports weight management by helping to burn fat, it may also stimulate energy for higher performance during exercise. Pyruvate helps promote the transport of glucose and protein into muscle cells, enhancing performance levels in exercise. It works by increasing the amount of ATP available to cells' mitochondria. Pyruvate possesses antioxidant properties, so in addition to supporting weight management, it promotes protection against free radicals. NSI Pyruvate is better because it:. Offers 1,000 mg of stabilized pyruvate in each tablet. Costs less than name brands with the same potency.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"It took 3 weeks to a month for it to kick in, but once it did it really suppressed my appetite without making me at all jittery. Also, it kills cravings making it much easier to stay on a diet. It helped a lot with my hot flashes too. Well worth the money."

"I had never heard of this stabilized compound--and I make it a point to seek out ways of using carbohydrates as effectively as possible. I like this product. I've only used it for about a month, but so far, so good. I take one capsule for every 15g of carbs I consume."

"It worked well in the sense that it seemed to keep my weight in check, though that could have been from some aminos that I'm taking, but it goes down smooth (smooth tablets) and is very cheap. Don't know if it gave me any additional energy, but I'll continue to buy the product."

Great Diet Supplement, September 26, 2007
By Hedwig from Castaic, California

"This is a good product. I usually take 4 tablets after each meal/snack. It curbs appetite and enforces a sense of satiation. I have not experienced any side effects. The only downside is the bitter taste."
