Cholesterol
My wife has been taking Pantethine from Va essentials for the past 4 months and recently her blood work has improved. Her total cholesterol went from 221 to 199 mg/dl, HDL went up slightly 49 to 53 mg/dl and the most important one LDL 155 to 124 mg/dl. Her doctor was impressed, obviously nothing is the miracle cure, however this supplement has shown promise in improving lipid levels. She takes 600 mg. twice a day with food, if your someone who does not want to take medications this product from Va essentials uses a highly absorbable and biologically active form of pantothenic acid(Vitamin B-5) which is extensively involved in carbohydrate, lipid and amino acid metabolism.
