## About <!--about-->
Calcium pantothenate is a calcium salt of pantothenic acid, one of the B-complex vitamins; only the D- isomer of pantothenic acid has vitamin activity, and US regulation 21 CFR 184.1212 notes that both the D- isomer and the DL- racemic mixture of calcium pantothenate are used in food.[^cfr-184-1212] Labels that do not name the isomer print it as calcium pantothenate, as the Canadian box of Post Fruity Pebbles does, where it is given as vitamin B5.[^off-ca]
