D-Pantethine is a conjugate of vitamin pantothenic acid and low molecular weight aminothiol cysteamine. It is involved in various enzymatic reactions and acts as a precursor to coenzyme A, a crucial molecule in energy metabolism. It has great potential in the prevention of certain diseases, such as cataract formation, diabetes-related circulatory problems, and malaria-related complications. In addition, D-Pantethine has obvious lipid-lowering activity. Increasing evidence suggests that D-Pantethine (standard dosage 900 mg per day) significantly reduces serum triglyceride (-32 %), total cholesterol (-19 %), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (-21 %) levels, and increases high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (+ 23 %) levels [1].

Health Benefit
D-Pantethine has a number of health benefits, which include but are not limited to the following.
- Promotes Heart Health
The role of D-Pantethine in promoting heart health should not be underestimated. By producing more coenzyme A, the metabolic rate of the heart muscle will be enhanced, thus increasing the contractility of the heart.
- Improves Lipid Metabolism
D-Pantethine has a positive impact on lipid metabolism. It can help maintain a healthy lipid profile by regulating the balance between cholesterol synthesis and breakdown.
- Improves Liver Function
D-Pantethine can reduce liver enzymes and increase adiponectin levels to improve fatty liver conditions.
- Other
D-Pantethine can be used to prevent inflammation, boost the immune system, treat gastrointestinal problems and reduce the risk of strokes. It can also help the body remove toxins, improve energy and athletic performance and improve adrenal function.
