hi guys dr. Burke here I want to talk

about vitamin b5 pantothenic acid okay

this is a real interesting vitamin in

that a lot of people are deficient

despite it being in a lot of your foods

so I’m going to talk about that but

first let’s talk about what it does in

the body it allows carbohydrates

proteins and fats to be converted to

energy and that’s why one of the top

symptoms of the efficiency would be

fatigue or adrenal fatigue and get tired

so vitamin d5 is a precursor to stress

hormones primarily cortisol and

adrenaline and so you need b5 for your

adrenals and that’s why one of the

things that I have done is I put several

versions of vitamin b5 in a lot of my

adrenal formulas because it’s good for

recovery it’s good for adrenal strength

it’s good for energy and it’s kind of

like a coenzyme to help you build more

of those hormones without it you just

can’t build those hormone so it’s

involved in metabolism it also gets rid

of lactic acid accumulation after a

workout you ever get real sore and it

takes a long time so b5 will help you

recover from a workout it also increases

oxygen utilization so if you’re working

out and you’re running out of gas faster

and you took some b5 you probably would

be able to go longer because it

increases oxygen in the body but here’s

the main point your intestines must

convert enacted b5 to active but and b5

so if you have destruction cilia or any

type of leaky gut or any types of damage

in your gut and you have digestive

problems that could be the reason why

you can’t absorb b5 and so that means

you have to take a lot more to create

the effects that you want and one of the

big effects is getting rid of acne a lot

of people have to take mega doses

dosages of vitamin b5 to get rid of

their acne and that’s why because the

colon is not absorbing it but the

symptoms would be irritability fatigue

these are all adrenal symptoms to bother

like depression and saamiya acne they’re

all adrenal symptoms so that’s

interesting

foods that are high in b5 it’s in almost

every food but it’s high in mushrooms

shiitake mushrooms actual liver

grass-fed lover avocado cauliflower eggs

a lot of other foods but these are the

top ones so if you have issues with this

you know you might want to look at

improving your intestinal tract and I

like to add fermented foods over a

period of time and lactic acid from

kombucha tea to improve the absorption

and then you’ll start to recover from

this efficiency thanks for watching
