PABA (Para-Aminobenzoic Acid)

Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) is a B Complex vitamin that is synthesized in the body.

In addition to its classification as an antioxidant (antioxidants, of course, mop up free-radicals, or "loose electrons", which cause cumulative cellular damage and are implicated in theories of aging), PABA may play a role in reducing fatigue, limiting the effects of depression (which can be brought on by a PABA deficiency) and reducing the inflammatory effects associated with osteoarthritis, a condition that can be quite painful and debilitating.

PABA also assists in the formation of erythrocytes. Erythrocytes are otherwise known as red blood cells, which, as everyone knows, are vital for carrying oxygen throughout the body.
