Vitamin B5, also known as pantothenic acid, is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin that plays a critical role in many bodily functions. Discovered in 1939, it was isolated from rice husks and named after the Greek word pantothen, meaning “from everywhere,” because it is found in many foods, including eggs, meats, whole grains, and nuts.

Vitamin B5 is essential for the release of energy from the foods we consume, and it supports tissue regeneration, antibody creation, and the healing process. It plays a vital role in the secretion of hormones like cortisone, which are important for metabolism, allergy defense, and the maintenance of healthy skin, muscles, and nerves.

Additionally, pantothenic acid aids in the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, and contributes to the creation of lipids, neurotransmitters, steroid hormones, and hemoglobin. It is also beneficial for skin health, helping to prevent wrinkles and even the graying of hair.
