Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid): benefits, foods and supplements

Vitamin B5, or pantothenic acid, is a water-soluble B vitamin. Its name comes from the Greek pantothen, meaning “from everywhere”: it is indeed found, in larger or smaller amounts, in most foods of animal and plant origin.

In the body, pantothenic acid is used to make coenzyme A, a molecule essential for using carbohydrates, fats and proteins. In food supplements, it is most often present as calcium pantothenate.

6 mg per day

The adult reference intake used on European labelling.

Found everywhere

A vitamin that is very widespread in the diet, as its name suggests.

Water-soluble

Soluble in water, it is stored only in small amounts by the body.

Recognised benefits

The recognised benefits of pantothenic acid

What is vitamin B5 for? The European Union authorises four health claims for pantothenic acid:

Energy

Pantothenic acid contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.

Fatigue

Pantothenic acid contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Mental performance

Pantothenic acid contributes to normal mental performance.

Hormones and neurotransmitters

Pantothenic acid contributes to normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters.

Food sources

Which foods are rich in pantothenic acid?

The best sources are offal (liver in particular), eggs, yeast, mushrooms, meat and fish. Among plant foods, it is found in pulses, wholegrain cereals, avocado and sunflower seeds.

Because it is present in almost all foods, a varied diet generally supplies enough of it. However, some vitamin B5 can be lost during the refining of cereals and the industrial processing of foods.

Forms and intake

Pantothenate or panthenol: what is the difference?

Calcium D-pantothenate is the stable form of pantothenic acid most widely used in food supplements. Panthenol, or dexpanthenol, is a precursor that the body converts into vitamin B5; it is found mainly in cosmetic skin and hair care products.

The reference intake (RI) for an adult is 6 mg per day. When taking a supplement, follow the daily dose stated on the label and take into account the other products you are taking.

Buying guide

How to choose a vitamin B5 supplement?

The form

Calcium D-pantothenate is the standard form used in supplements.

The dosage

Compare the amount per dose with the percentage of the reference intake.

Combinations

Vitamin B5 is often combined with the other B vitamins, zinc or biotin.

Cumulative intake

If you take several supplements, add up their vitamin B5 content.
