Products Description
B complex vitamins
Vitamin B refers to several water-soluble vitamins often found together in foods, all of which are necessary for normal growth and metabolism, but none of which are synthesized in adequate amounts by humans. The common forms of vitamin B include vitamin B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cyanocobalamin). B complex vitamins are needed for healthy skin, hair, eyes, and liver. They also help the nervous system function properly.
Important functions of vitamin B5
High Quality Vitamin B5 in Bulk is a growth factor and is essential for various metabolic functions, including the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fatty acids. This vitamin is also involved in the synthesis of cholesterol, lipids, neurotransmitters, steroid hormones, and hemoglobin.
All B vitamins help the body convert food (carbohydrates) into fuel (glucose), which the body uses to produce energy. Vitamin B5 is critical to the manufacture of red blood cells, as well as sex and stress-related hormones produced in the adrenal glands. It could also help the body to synthesize cholesterol.
An adequate supply of pantothenic acid is important because it is incorporated into coenzyme A (CoA), a key player in all aspects of metabolism such as breaking down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins for energy. Deficiency in vitamin B5 can lead to problems like depression, fatigue, and upper respiratory tract infections.
