Pantothenic Acid is an essential vitamin that's a key member of the B-complex vitamins. Our bodies need it to produce Coenzyme A (CoA), which has a broad range of functions in sustaining our lives, including helping metabolizing fats, proteins, carbohydrates (and gleaning energy from them); synthesizing certain hormones (including melatonin) and neurotransmitters; and metabolizing many drugs or toxins in the liver.

Product Notes:
Some take pantothenic acid (also known as Vitamin B5) as a supplement to build red blood cells (CoA helps produce heme), stimulate tissue growth and enhance nerve function, because even though it is widely available in food, much of the pantothenic acid content can get lost through freezing, canning, and refining methods. It's also being studied for its contribution to wound healing, especially when used topically, and has been found to lower the odds of suffering from anxiety.
