Vitamin B15 or Pangamic acid

Pangamic acid or vitamin B15 is an antioxidant and prevents the formation of destructive superoxide radicals, a major cause of ageing. It is also an antipollutant, eliminating environmental toxins from the body.
Being a lipotropic substance, it lowers cholesterol levels and prevents fat accumulation in the liver. A deficiency of pangamic acid can cause reduced oxygenation of the blood, leading to fatigue and lowered fitness. Its best natural sources are brewers yeast, brown rice, whole grains, pumpkin, and sesame seeds. There are no recommended daily allowances, but a daily intake of 25-100 mg is normal. It is sometimes available as a supplement called calcium pangamate.
