Muscle Power - Creatine Pyruvate 700 mg per capsule - 90 caps

Creatine pyruvate salt.

What it is

• A compound made by binding creatine (a guanidinoacetic acid derivative that helps regenerate ATP) with pyruvic acid (the end product of glycolysis).
• It’s usually formulated as a stable crystalline salt, not just a loose mix.
• Supplements use this form because it combines the energetic roles of both molecules.

How it works in the body

Once ingested, creatine pyruvate dissociates into:

1. Creatine → taken up by muscle, stored as phosphocreatine, and used to rapidly regenerate ATP during high-energy demand.
2. Pyruvate → enters mitochondria to fuel the Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle), or can be converted to lactate if oxygen is low.

So, you’re basically giving the body two energy substrates at once.

Reported benefits (from small studies & sports nutrition research)

• Improved absorption & plasma levels: Some data suggests creatine pyruvate leads to higher plasma creatine concentrations compared with creatine monohydrate.
• Endurance support: Pyruvate may improve aerobic metabolism and delay fatigue.
• Synergy: Combining creatine’s ATP-regeneration role with pyruvate’s role in oxidative metabolism may support both strength and endurance.

Safety

• Likely safe in moderate doses, similar to creatine monohydrate.
• Pyruvate in high amounts can cause mild GI distress (loose stools, bloating).
