Pantothenic Acid

Description

Pantothenic Acid supplies 500 mg of pantothenic acid in a convenient capsule form. The body uses pantothenic acid in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, and in the production of adrenal hormones, skin, hair, nerves, and red blood cells.* Pantothenic acid supports cellular energy production by promoting proper metabolism of carbohydrates and fatty acids. Pantothenic helps the synthesis of vitamins, amino acids, fatty acids and steroid hormones.*

Pantothenic acid is a precursor of coenzyme A (CoA), an important cofactor and acyl group carrier in cells. One of the main functions for CoA is the formation of acetyl-CoA, vital for cellular respiration and the metabolism of carbohydrates and fatty acids through the Krebs cycle. Distribution studies indicate that tissues with the highest retention of pantothenic acid are the kidneys, pituitary gland, heart, muscle, liver and adrenal glands. Additionally, pantothenic acid is required for the synthesis of fatty acids and membrane phospholipids, the amino acids leucine, arginine and methionine, and isoprenoid derivatives, including steroid hormones, vitamin A and vitamin D.*

As a dietary supplement, adults take 1 capsule daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
