Calcium in B5 Fat Burn Technology

I have concerns about the amount of calcium in the B5 Fat Burn Technology formula.

I am thinking I'll just use panthethine capsules instead, to limit my calcium supplementation. Is there any reason why one should not use panethine rather than panthethenic acid which contains calcium?

Any suggestions for brands that are best?

Thanks!!

Good question.

Vitamin B5, pantathenic acid is available commercially and is usually attached to calcium.. We didn't add calcium, it is bound to the vitamin, probably to keep it stable. This is part of the reason we switched, at least in part, to about 50% pantethine. The risk is that Leung studied 10 g of pantothenic acid (B5) not pantathine.
