A detailed human study has demonstrated that a dose of 600 mg of pantethine can potently activate peptides within the digestive tract that directly activate the healing process.
One of the peptides activated by pantethine is called calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). CGRP is a powerful blood flow enhancing substance released from nerve endings in the digestive lining in response to gastric injury. CGRP also helps promote bowel contraction and motility, preventing constipation that otherwise may result from digestive distress. The researchers believe that pantethine acts directly in the gastrointestinal tract before absorption and also acts systemically after absorption and distribution in the circulation.
The other peptide activated by pantethine is called vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), which is both a vasodilator and a gastrointestinal motility regulator. VIP helps the muscles that move your digestive tract relax so that normal motility has an easier time. Like CGRP, VIP is helping to bring blood to the digestive tract. VIP also stimulates pancreatic bicarbonate secretion, a natural antacid mechanism.
These findings for pantethine are new. They predict that pantethine can play a signficant role in digestive repair. Since millions of Americans have inflamed digestive tracts, leaky gut, and troublesome bacteria/Candida imbalance, there is no shortage of people who can benefit from using pantethine to help correct digestive problems.
