Brand IP Statement(s) re: (c), (TM), (SM)

NOW(R) Calcium Pyruvate contains 65-70% Pyruvic Acid. Calcium Pyruvate is a fully reacted supplement that combines Pyruvic Acid with Calcium.

Brand IP Statement(s) re: (c), (TM), (SM)

NOW(R) Calcium Pyruvate is a natural combination of two important nutrients - Calcium and Pyruvic Acid. This combination produces a stable compound called pyruvate salt that is more easily absorbed than calcium alone. Calcium Pyruvate also plays a crucial role in energy production by facilitating the transport of glucose from the bloodstream into the muscles, making this a popular supplement with fitness enthusiasts and body builders.* Look for other NOW(R) sports supplements in health food stores nationwide.
