A member asked:
Can calcium pyruvate lead to hypercalcemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Any calcium product taken in large amounts can increase calcium levels in susceptible people. Pyruvate is the major component of calcium pyruvate. Large amounts of the supplement is likely to cause nausea instead of high calcium.
