vitamin B5

[LOCO]

Tweetok, i finally got my lazy ass up and got me some vitamin B5 for the damn acne i got from my fina cycle... (gonna give it a try and see if it really does work)
went to gnc.. they only had 500mg pills... so now i have to take 10 caps a day for the next week or so... and then half of that for anohter few weeks (according to nubian beauty, and others)
the caps are huge tho... i came home and swallowed all 10. almost choked on them...
anyways, my question now is, does it matter when and how many caps i take during the day? like should i space it out through out the day, or just do them all at once?

Tweetok i just found this on some website:


When and how should I take B5?



It is highly recommended to take your doses of B5 divided up evenly over the day. For example, if you’re taking 6 grams of B5 per day, you would do well to take six 1-gram doses, spaced out as evenly as possible. The reason for spacing out your doses is that the body can only make use of so much B5 (or any nutrient) at a time. Trying to take the 6 grams of B5 all at once would really only result in a waste of the excess that the body can’t absorb, and it wouldn’t allow much coverage for your body’s B5 needs throughout the rest of the day. The ideal might be to take as many small doses throughout the day as possible, but it isn’t always practical to take doses on every hour or half-hour. Every two or three hours appears to work best for most people.

It is up for debate of whether to take B5 with food or not. One contention is that the simultaneous absorption of certain other types of vitamins (B6 & B12 for example), either from food or supplements, can interfere with B5’s absorption. You may want to try taking your doses at least 15 minutes before a meal, or a minimum of an hour afterward. Other recommendations state that B5 should be taken with food, though as of this writing it is hard to say why, unless it is thought that the food bulk will slow down the passage of B5 through the stomach and increase its absorption, or perhaps prevent any possibility of gastric distress. You will have to find what works best for you, if indeed there is any difference between the two methods. The author of this paper has taken B5 before, during, and after meals with no apparent reduction in B5's efficacy.

Take B5 capsules with water, and B5 powder can be mixed into water quite easily, though if the taste of the powder is too noticeably bitter, a little added fruit juice can disguise the taste.



Here is a sample B5 regimen for a dosage of 15 grams per day, using 500mg capsules:



BREAKFAST: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water.



MID-MORNING SNACK: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water.



LUNCH: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water.



AFTERNOON SNACK: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water.



DINNER: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water.



BEDTIME: 5 capsules & 4 ounces of water 30 minutes before sleep.

It is worth noting that the author has since discovered that taking B5 prior to sleep may result in interrupted sleep patterns due to a need to urinate; this may be caused either by the liquid ingested, and/or the B5; the body may be trying to eliminate left-over B5 in the urine. If you are sensitive in this way, you may want to take your last dose of B5 several hours before you plan to go to sleep, thus ensuring that you get a full night's rest.

LOL! Why did you swallow all 10 at once? Couldn't you just swallow 5 first and swallow the rest 10 seconds later?
