Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)
B5 is known as the anti-stress vitamin and plays a role in
- the production of adrenal hormones
- the formation of antibodies
- aiding in vitamin utilization
- the conversion of fats, carbohydrates, and protein into energy
B5 is a stamina enhancer. Required by all cells in the body, B5 is concentrated in the organs. It prevents some forms of anemia (deficiency of oxygen carrying component of blood) and is vital for rebuilding and maintaining healthy adrenal function. B5 is also needed for normal functioning of gastrointestinal tract and is helpful in treating anxiety and depression. Studies found humans can withstand stress much better after
receiving megadoses of B5.
A deficiency of B5 may cause:
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Nausea
- Tingling in hands
B5 is involved in the production of neurotransmitters and is an essential element of coenzyme A, a vital body chemical necessary for many metabolic functions. It helps in the conversion of choline to acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter for the brain.
