Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) Pantethine is the reactive component of coenzyme A as well as acyl-carrier protein. These proteins are involved in the regulation of carbohydrate, lipid and amino acid metabolism. Various studies have shown that pantethine may help lower blood fats, particularly cholesterol. Pantethine is the oxidized form of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) which is a critical component of the "Krebs cycle" (also known as the tricarboxylic acid or TCA cycle). This is the set of chemical reactions that occur when cells produce the energy molecule, ATP and involves a variety of enzymes and reactions. Coenzyme A is important as a cofactor in many enzymatic pathways, including ones involved with fatty acid oxidation, carbohydrate metabolism, pyruvate degradation, amino acid catabolism and so on.
Suggested Usage Take 1 to 3 softgels per day with meals, or as directed by your qualified health consultant.
Jarrow FormulasÂ’ Pantethine is a derivative of vitamin B5 and the stable disulfate form of pantetheine, which is the active component of Coenzyme A (CoA). Pantethine supports lipid metabolism by its ability to raise levels of CoA, a cofactor involved in several metabolic pathways including carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. CoA combines with acetyl groups to form Acetyl CoA, a participant in energy production.
