PANTETHINE
Pantethine is a form of Pantethenic acid (vitamin B5). It has been found to be the more biologically active form of B5, although considered somewhat less stable...
Pantethine serves as a precursor for the synthesis of coenzyme A, which is one of, if not the most biologically involved metabolic enzymes in the human body. It is essential for the process of fatty acid degradation. As such, it plays a significant role in regulating cholesterol levels.
Studies have shown pantethine is effective in lowering both LDL and total cholesterol, as well as triglycerides, an effect that the related Pantethenic Acid form cannot demonstrate. Coenzyme A is also necessary for the production of a variety of hormones and neurotransmitters, as well as activation of white blood cells for immune support.
Pantethine, being integral in the production of Coenzyme A, can help to combat stress and is often found in combination with herbs to be used as an adrenal support. The exact mechanism as to how pantethine exerts these effects is still unclear. Pantethine deficiency may cause a severe decrease in energy and poor nervous system functioning.
Pantethine is found in mushrooms, avocados, eggs and lentils, or can be taken in supplement form.
Be sure to look for a supplement showing pantethine and not pantethenic acid, as this acid form does not have the same cholesterol lowering effects.
For stress relief and overall health, a dosage of 100-300 mg/day is adequate. To achieve the cholesterol lowering effects of pantethine, dosages between 600-1200 mg/day are recommended.
