Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B-5), Source Naturals, 250 mg, 250 tabs

Pantothenic Acid (also known as   as vitamin B5) is one of the most important vitamins for basic life processes. Vitamin B5 deficiency is quite rare, as it is found in a variety of foods. Even its name speaks for itself - pantothen is translated from Greek as 'from all sides'.

 Without pantothenic acid, you could not use fats, carbohydrates or proteins as energy sources. The body also cannot produce hormones without this vitamin, and the immune system can simply collapse. These are just some of the important functions of pantothenic  acid.

The most important sources of pantothenic acid are cauliflower, shiitake mushrooms and crimini.

 Pantothenic acid plays a key role in energy production.

The most studied role of pantothenic acid in the  human body is its incorporation into the molecule called coenzyme A. In fact, coenzyme A is so important that one of the latest studies suggested that the origin of life can be traced to the evolution of this chemical.

Coenzyme A is central place in energy metabolism by acting on carbohydrates, fats and proteins to be burned as fuel. Given its important role,  it is very good that pantothenic acid is so common in food. We could not exist without it.

Pantothenic acid – participant in fat metabolism

In addition to breaking down fats as a fuel, pantothenic acid - via Coenzyme A molecules - is essential for  storing fats. You will also need Coenzyme A for the production of cholesterol in the body, which in turn acts as a building block for key hormones that determine metabolic processes. (While many health organizations warn of the risks associated with excess cholesterol in the body, a certain amount of cholesterol is critical to health, as many cell types require cholesterol in their membranes, and cholesterol is also required for the production of certain hormones and the production of vitamin D). For more detailed advice, you can contact the manager on the website Biotus.
