Vitamin B5 – Boost Your Energy, Handle Stress, Recover Smarter

Let’s talk about vitamin B5, also known as pantothenic acid. You might not hear about it as often as other vitamins, but make no mistake — this one plays a major role in how your body handles energy, endurance, and recovery.

B5 is involved in almost every energy-producing process in the body. Whether you’re pushing physical limits, balancing long workdays, or dealing with mental pressure, this vitamin helps keep you steady, strong, and sharp.

If you’re training hard, dealing with stress — physical or mental — or just living life full throttle, B5 has your back. That’s exactly why we made sure it’s in every scoop of RCVRY.

How Vitamin B5 Helps You Perform

Vitamin B5 fuels energy metabolism that keeps up with you.
It’s essential for producing coenzyme A — a molecule your body needs to break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into usable energy. In plain terms, without B5, your internal engine starts to slow down. During intense training or long days, B5 keeps your energy system firing so you can push harder, longer. It keeps your endurance solid and helps fight off midday crashes.

Vitamin B5 supports your adrenal glands — your stress response system.
Feeling worn out from tough workouts or high-pressure days? Your adrenal glands, which produce cortisol and other stress-response hormones, rely on B5 to function properly. B5 helps you stay resilient under pressure, keeping your body and mind in balance when life turns up the intensity. It plays a part in how you respond to both acute stress and long-term pressure.

Vitamin B5 supports muscle repair and growth.
It plays a role in synthesizing fatty acids and cell membranes — both crucial for repairing and building muscle tissue after exercise. Whether you’re lifting heavy, hitting sprints, or grinding through high-rep sets, B5 helps your muscles recover faster and come back stronger. It ensures your recovery window is shorter and more effective.

Vitamin B5 is also a bonus for your skin.
Training hard can sometimes mean blisters, chafing, or irritated skin. B5 supports skin repair and helps calm inflammation. That means quicker recovery — not just in your muscles, but on the surface too. Athletes and outdoor movers benefit from its ability to maintain healthy skin under pressure.

Vitamin B5 supports your nervous system.
Your nerves need B5 to function properly. That affects everything from muscle control to focus and reaction time. When your nervous system is supported, your performance — both physical and mental — improves. It helps you stay mentally alert while your body stays in sync.

Why It’s in Every Scoop of RCVRY

Like other B-vitamins, B5 is water-soluble, which means your body doesn’t store it. And if you’re sweating, training, or stressed? You’re burning through more than usual. Without enough, your performance, energy, and recovery can all take a hit.

That’s why every serving of RCVRY includes a functional, bioavailable dose of vitamin B5. It supports consistent, sustained energy. It enhances your ability to handle stress. It fuels faster, more complete recovery — both mentally and physically.

Whether you’re crushing sets in the gym, clocking fast miles, or just living an all-out lifestyle, vitamin B5 is working behind the scenes to power you through — and help you bounce back stronger.
