Vitamin B5 Powder - Pantothenic Acid (Calcium Pantothenate) - 500 mg per Serving - 5 kg

What is Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5)?

Pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin B5, is a water-soluble vitamin essential for the body. It is part of the B vitamin complex and plays a fundamental role in converting food into energy. Our body uses it to synthesize coenzyme A, a key molecule in numerous metabolic reactions. Vitamin B5 is found naturally in many foods, but supplementation can help ensure adequate levels, especially in restrictive diets or situations of increased demand.

This supplement presents pantothenic acid in the form of calcium pantothenate, a stable and highly bioavailable form. Calcium pantothenate is efficiently absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and is rapidly converted into the active form of the vitamin.
