It is essential for the synthesis of coenzyme A, a key molecule in numerous metabolic reactions in the body. It is found naturally in many foods such as meats, eggs, legumes, whole grains, and vegetables. However, cooking can reduce its content, so some people opt for supplements to ensure adequate intake. This Nutricost supplement provides 500 mg of pantothenic acid per capsule, in the form of calcium pantothenate, a stable and bioavailable form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e500mg of Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) Per Capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e240 Capsules Per Bottle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNon-GMO, Gluten Free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThird-Party Tested\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in NSF Certified, GMP Compliant, and FDA Registered Facilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVegan Capsules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMechanism of Action\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce in the body, pantothenic acid is converted into coenzyme A (CoA), a molecule essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. CoA participates in fatty acid synthesis, pyruvate oxidation, and the Krebs cycle. It is also necessary for the production of steroid hormones and the formation of hemoglobin. However, the body cannot store large amounts of vitamin B5, so a daily supply through diet or supplements is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiscovery and History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin B5 was discovered in 1933 by scientist Roger J. Williams, who isolated it from yeast. Its name comes from the Greek \"pantothen,\" meaning \"from everywhere,\" as it is found in a wide variety of foods.
