PABA Para-Amino Benzoic-Acid and Health
PABA, a micronutrient and antioxidant, functions mopping up by up free radicals--the cell-damaging “loose electrons” which some studies have associates with the aging process. PABA helps the body form erythrocytes, red blood cells which carry oxygen throughout the body.
PABA also helps, by breaking them down, to improve the body’s use of proteins and maintains intestinal flora. It assists in the production of folic acid, with which it is best used; its benefits are further enhanced when it is taken in combination with vitamin C and the other group B vitamins.
A diet including liver, molasses, whole grains, mushrooms and spinach will normally prevent a PABA deficiency; intestinal bacteria sometimes make the nutrient as well.
PABA’s Positive Health Effects
PABA may reduce fatigue and limit the effects of depression, and reduce the inflammatory effects of osteoarthritis. PABA may lessen wrinkles and improve skin tone as we age, and restore gray hair to its original color. It also helps with hair growth and improves skin pigmentation--(color, o the lack of it--in the skin.
Deficiency and Toxicity issues
PABA deficiencies do occur, and are exhibited by depression, fatigue, irritability, nervousness, constipation, weeping eczema and/or patchy skin.
Sunscreens that have a SPF over 8 may reduce the body’s ability to make Vitamin D.
While some reports state that PABA has no known toxicity problems, others indicate otherwise. Signs of toxicity include skin rashes, nausea, and vomiting. And excessive levels of PABA could lead to liver damage.
Be sure to always obtain your PABA from the best possible natural sources. If you purchase from anywhere old place, such as your local super market, you are at a high risk of getting a product that contains toxins. This can actually impair your health.
