What is Pantothenic Acid? |
 |
Pantothenic acid, also called vitamin B5 (a B vitamin), is a water-soluble vitamin required to sustain life (essential nutrient).
Pantothenic acid is needed to metabolise and synthesise carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Its name is derived from the Greek pantothen (παντόθεν) meaning "from everywhere" and small quantities of pantothenic acid are found in nearly every food, with high amounts in whole grain cereals, legumes, eggs, meat, and royal jelly.
Many "alternative" uses of pantothenic acid have been devised:
Alternative to ViagraTaken in conjunction with Choline Bitartrate, at a ratio of 500mg Choline Bitartrate to 250mg Pantothenic Acid, this natural combination has had remarkable results without any side effects.
The Hair Vitamin
Mouse models identified skin irritation and loss of hair color as possible results of severe pantothenic acid deficiency. As a result, the cosmetic industry began adding pantothenic acid to various cosmetic products, including shampoo. These products, however, showed no benefits in human trials. Despite this, many cosmetic products still advertise pantothenic acid additives.
Acne TreatmentFollowing from discoveries in mouse trials[citation needed], in the late 1990s a small study was published promoting the use of pantothenic acid to treat acne vulgaris.
According to a study published in 1995 by Dr. Lit-Hung Leung, high doses of Vitamin B5 resolved acne and decreased pore size. Today, many companies offer Vitamin B5 supplements aimed at reducing acne.
Diabetic Peripheral polyneuropathy28 out of 33 patients (84,8%) previously treated with alpha-lipoic acid for peripheral polyneuropathy reported further improvement after combination with pantothenic acid.
