It might be given as a calcium salt (Calcium Pantothenate), a common supplement, but the B5 component of that is just the pantothenate. Calcium is a different mineral altogether. And while Calcium Pantothenate does contain a bit of calcium, it's not a reliable source of calcium.
Chemistry has never been my strong suit, but you did a great job making it easy enough to understand. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching :)
Very good explanation of CoA, Dr!

Thank you so much Dr Ji
any chance you will be doing the rest of the b vitamans? thank you for making these videos.
Yes, I will shortly! Thank you !
I have adrenal fatigue pcos and weight gain due to that.. Want to take pantothenic acid, but will it cause hairloss as a side effect?
Don't think it will!
So b5 has nothing to do with calcium?
