Search Results for "D-Calcium Pantothenate"

D‑calcium pantothenate is vitamin B5, the raw material your cells use to make coenzyme A—the hub molecule that powers fat and carbohydrate metabolism and supports skin renewal. Some people take it hoping to calm acne or help skin recover. Think of it as a fuel-line vitamin; when trials look at benefits, they mostly test skin outcomes rather than “energy.”

• Help manage mild-to-moderate acne
• Support overall skin healing/skin health

Calcium is the body’s structural bricklayer—most of your skeleton is built from it, and your nerves and muscles use it as a signaling spark. When diet falls short, supplements can help maintain bone, and in specific situations (like pregnancy with low calcium intake) they can meaningfully improve outcomes. Think of it as a building material that matters most when supplies are low or demands are high.

• Support and maintain bone density over time
• Reduce fracture risk when combined with vitamin D in older adults
• Ease premenstrual (PMS) symptoms like mood changes, water retention, and pain
• Lower the risk of preeclampsia/gestational hypertension in pregnancy when baseline calcium intake is low

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is a co‑factor that helps enzymes make neurotransmitters, break down amino acids, and recycle homocysteine. Think of it as a small wrench that keeps many metabolic bolts from loosening. People reach for B6 to smooth monthly symptoms, support pregnancy nausea regimens, fine‑tune homocysteine, or help with certain kidney stone risks.

• Reduce premenstrual symptoms
• Support prenatal nausea regimens
• Support healthy homocysteine levels
• Help manage urinary oxalate in some stone formers
• Reduce feelings of anxiety (emerging)
