Category - Calcium D-Glucarate
Calcium D-Glucarate [calcium salt of D-glucaric acid] is produced naturally in small amounts by mammals, and can be found in variety of fruits and vegetables. Oral supplementation of calcium D-glucarate has been shown to inhibit beta-glucuronidase which is associated with an increased risk for various cancers. Its inhibition of beta-glucuronidase activity allows the body to eject hormones such as estrogen before they can become reabsorbed. In bodybuilding supplements it is often added in testosterone boosters for estrogen management. Calcium D-glucarate might lower estrogen levels, but there is little evidence to support its use.
