Ultra B5 – Grain Free Vitamin B5 as Pantothenic Acid

Vitamin B5 has several names including pantothenic, pantothenic acid and pantethine. The prefix of these names, “pantos” literally means everywhere, and that is for good reason. Vitamin B5 is not only found in a number of food items, but you can also find it being added to hair and skin products.

Because it is such a common nutrient, doctors often miss it as a deficiency, which can lead to detrimental effects on the body. Among many functions, It is a precursor to Coenzyme A which is crucial for metabolism and cannot be made without pantothenic acid.

Another important function of pantothenic acid is the production of cholesterol and cortisol. While many consider cholesterol a negative, it’s actually quite important for the body. It helps produce CoQ10 and Vitamin D, as well as testosterone in men and estrogen and progesterone in women.

Like several of the other B-vitamins, B5 is also necessary for obtaining energy from protein, fats, and carbs. As mentioned, pantothenic acid is required to produce Coenzyme A which helps the body convert proteins, fats, and carbohydrates into energy, also known as ATP or adenosine triphosphate. 

Again, because this is such a prevalent nutrient, many doctors miss it when diagnosing a deficiency. In fact deficiency of B5 is much more common than it’s given credit for.

Signs of deficiency include:

  • Premature graying of the hair – while going on a supplement will not change the color back, it will significantly slow the graying process.
  • Inability to cope with stress – as the body is faced with stressors, inflammation can occur activating the need for cortisol, depleting the body’s stores of pantothenic acid. While inflammation is not bad in itself, when the body can no longer handle it, it can become a greater issue.
  • Fatigue, lack of focus and/or brain fog
  • Burning neuropathy – an actual burning sensation in the feet.

Ultra B5 is a gluten free formula which may be a useful dietary adjunct for individuals who wish to supplement their diet with generous amounts of pantothenic acid.

    This product has been good. I had a hard time finding just B-5 alone. Added Ultra B-5 to B-Complex to help alleviate depression. It takes a while to feel effects……but slowly I feel better…..So thank you Dr. Osborn for your advise. Will reorder.

    I noticed that I was getting more gray hair concentrated in the top of my head. I’d had B12 deficiency and anemia in general. I decided to add extra B5 to my B-complex. After about a week of taking B5 I noticed that I had less gray. Whoa! I’m expecting my hair to fully return to its natural youthful color.

    I have not used this product, but believe in it wholeheartedly as it works for tendonitis ten times better than aspirin. I used the strength of the B5 product at 500 mg. and have told many others about its worth!

  4. .

    It took about three weeks, but I no longer get acne breakouts!

  5. Ran-E H.

    I took this supplement for my burning feet. But i haven’t seen any results. I don’t know if it’s because the dose wasn’t enough or i didn’t take it long enough.

  6. .

  7. .
