How Effective is Pyruvate?
Want a short, simple answer? You're
better off spending your money on other better fat burners.
Want to know why? Many of the studies
which showed Pyruvate to help fat loss were conducted in very
exclusive circumstances, and used extremely high dosages that
the results can't be generalized on the public. In some cases,
the Pyruvate dosages were more than 10 times that of recommended
doses!
In one study, 22 to 28 grams of
Pyruvate were administered to participants as compared to the
recommended 500mg to 1 gram consumed several times a day for a
total of only about 4 to 5 grams. This study also found 23% more
fat loss as opposed to the claimed 48%, and even with the 48%
greater fat loss claim, weight loss in pounds translated to just
2 or 3 pounds... Which is rather insignificant considering the
amount of Pyruvate the subjects took.
If Not Pyruvate, Then What?
As consumers, you want the biggest
bang for your buck in both value and result, and you can be sure
that your money is better spent else where. For fat loss supplements,
Xenadrine and Hydroxycut are the reigning champs. For the results
they've produced for many, you may find them to be a smarter and
better buy than Pyruvate supplements.
But before you run off and buy
Xenadrine of Hydroxycut, know that they both have their pros and
cons, and they're not without side effects. I recommend you read
