Pantethine
Pantethine is the more active form of Pantothenic Acid (or vitamin B5). Small amounts of Pantethine can be found throughout the natural world, even in our food, but it is also widely available as a supplement.
Pantethine helps Candida sufferers in a couple different ways. Firstly, it helps your body metabolize acetaldehyde, one of the toxic byproducts of Candida and Candida Die-Off. Secondly, it boosts your adrenal glands, organs that play an important part in your immune system but that are often weakened by Candida overgrowth.
How can Pantethine help with your Candida?
Pantethine helps to expel the toxic byproducts of Candida
The Candida yeast leaves as many as 79 different waste products which play havoc with your body. One of these is acetaldehyde, a nasty chemical that affects your metabolic, endocrine, neurological and immune systems, often resulting in that ‘brain fog’ characteristic of Candida. This is produced by the Candida yeast during your Candida infestation, and it is also released by yeast cells during the Die-Off reaction.
Pantethine addresses these symptoms of Candida overgrowth by removing the acetaldehyde. It does this by providing your body with the building blocks to synthesize co-enzyme A, an important nutrient that plays a huge role in your metabolism. Studies have shown acetaldehyde levels reducing when patients took Pantethine supplements. With respect to its use on a Candida diet, Pantethine performs a very similar role to molybdenum, another supplement that we recommend for general Candida symptoms and Candida Die-Off.
Pantethine boosts your adrenals
Your adrenal glands are often one of the first casualties of a Candida overgrowth. You can read more about this on our adrenal fatigue page. Pantethine can play an important role in your recovery by boosting your adrenals and restoring your immune system to health.
Pantethine supports the production of an adrenal steroid named cortisone, which reduces inflammation in your body. Without this you will be liable to suffer from IBS and other inflammatory conditions that are typically related with Candida.
How do you take Pantethine?
A typical dose of Pantethine is 300mg, three times a day, in tablet form. The vitamin is often delivered in a compound named Calcium Pantothenate. As with all supplements, remember to keep it in a cool dark place and away from the reach of children.
Who should not take Pantethine?
Pantethine can sometimes disturb the balance of your intestines and result in diarrhea. Any patients with severe gastrointestinal problems should avoid this supplement, as should pregnant and breast feeding women.
Pantethine Side Effects
Use of Pantethine should not be excessive, as in large amounts it can sometimes block the absorption of other Vitamin Bs. Some users have reported fatigue, headaches and numbness in hands or feet. Others have complained of increased bowel movements or diarrhea.
