hey how are you so today we’re going to

talk about the importance of vitamin b5

on a ketogenic and an intermittent

fasting plan okay the name of that

vitamin is pantothenic acid and it’s a

cofactor for energy metabolism but

specifically for enzymes that help you

break down fat okay so when you’re

converting from sugar burning to ketosis

by burning fat you need b5 big-time now

the Greek word for this vitamin is panto

theme okay which means from all quarters

indicating that it’s very easy to get

from pretty much all your foods okay and

so you when you read on this vitamin

you’re gonna find that oh it’s almost

impossible to be deficient because it’s

everywhere but actually a lot of people

are deficient in this and I’m gonna tell

you why in a second but first let me

tell you what it also will help you do

but it’s a key nutrient to help you make

melatonin for sleeping and I see the

colon which is a neurotransmitter that

helps you stay awake during the day and

helps you get into REM sleep also in

nerve function and muscle function okay

it also is needed to make cortisol this

is a real key nutrient for adrenal

function so if you have adrenal fatigue

for example you need to take more b5 so

if you’re deficient invited me five you

can get all sorts of issues like Keita

fatigue stress nerve pain inflammation

and insomnia so these are very common

symptoms when you do a ketogenic diet

because your body is requiring more of

this vitamin when it actually has to

burn more fat so really what I want to

talk about is two things one is you’re

not getting it from the diet which is

rare or there’s something going on in

your digestive system that’s not right

in other words the flora the friendly

bacteria in your gut help you make b5

and other B vitamins and that’s probably

the more likely cause of issues with a

b5 deficient

because sometimes even other B vitamin

C’s like biotin for example which will

prevent hair loss a lot of people have

hair loss and then they take large

amounts of biotin and the hair loss goes

away well your body should be able to

make it also you’re getting it from the

diet but I really think it’s the gut for

a lot of people so if you don’t have the

friendly flora it’s going to be hard to

make those B vitamins so so of course

you know if you had antibiotics that’s

going to destroy your gut a lot of sugar

it will do it

and even when you do certain types of

cleanses we’re doing colonics you flush

everything out and maybe you didn’t put

things back in okay so fermented

vegetables probiotics are very very

important and by the way these microbes

consume fiber so that’s where the

vegetables come in right you want it’s

like food for these microbes there’s one

more thing though the microbes need

vitamin D to survive so if you’re low in

vitamin D that alone could starve off

the microbes which could then could keep

you be vitamin deficient especially it

would be five so let’s say in the winter

months or like come summer when you get

all the Sun and you feel so good and

your digestive system works and your

mood starts going up will guess why boom

right here so these cofactors these B

vitamins are intimately involved in so

many things neurotransmitters hormones

metabolism those type of things but make

sure you have enough vitamin D get

enough Sun if it’s winter then take a

good vitamin d3 to actually then feed

the microbes so that can make the B

vitamins so you actually can get through

this very smoothly all right talk you

later hey guys a lot of you already have

my book some of you don’t but this new

edition called the new body type guide

is an upgrade from my last edition

called the seven principles of fat

burning it has 156 images 378 pages full

glossary I talked about keto in a minute

fasting the body types in detail I have

a new stressed chapter I’m going to show

you exactly what to eat
