By Kyla Miller;

Stress is a common aspect of life and if not managed, can have negative consequences for our health. These consequences include direct impacts on mental health and the onset and progression of physical illness. In 2008, studies showed that 21.2% of Canadian males (approximately 2.8 million) and 23.4% of Canadian females (3.2 million) aged 15 or older, reported that most days were quite a bit or extremely stressful. With the advances of technology and the increasing demands of everyday life, it is reasonable to assume that these numbers have only increased. With all that we are dealing with, it is more important than ever to provide our body with the nutrition needed to cope with stress. Thankfully, the “stress vitamin” can help us.

The “stress vitamin” is vitamin B5, otherwise known as pantothenic acid. This vitamin is an important stress fighter. Deficiency of this vitamin will often cause under activity of the adrenal glands, leading to symptoms such as allergies, PMS, Candida, hypoglycaemia, endocrine disorders, and more. Without the natural vitality of our adrenals, everyday tasks become more and more difficult.

Listed below are three ways in which vitamin B5 can reduce stress:

1. It works to stimulate the production of neurotransmitters responsible for reducing physical and mental responses to stress. These neurotransmitters – including serotonin, dopamine and nor epinephrine – help to calm our central nervous system, which in turn can decrease anxiety associated with stress. In other words, they can help you stay calm during a stressful situation.

2. It aids in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and protein. Carbohydrates are converted to glucose, fats to fatty acids, and protein to amino acids. Through these conversions, our bodies are able to rebuild healthy brain and nerve cells, which may help reduce stress.
