PABA is the short form for Para-AminoBenzoic Acid. It is an antioxidant that is considered by some as a B complex vitamin, and sometimes called vitamin Bx. Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) is used in sunscreen preparations since it can help protect the skin against ultra-violet radiation.
When PABA is in short supply fatigue, irritability, nervousness and depression might manifest itself as well as constipation. Weeping eczema has also been noted in people with PABA deficiency as well as patchy areas on the skin.
PABA Deficiency Symptoms:
1. constipation and other chronic gastro-intestinal disorders
2. nervousness
3. frequent headaches
4. general fatigue
5. depression
6. irritability
7. weeping or moist eczema
8. premature wrinkling of skin
9. premature grey hair

PABA Benefits & Functions:
1. helps in the utilization of pantothenic acid
2. important for healthy skin and hair pigment
3. may restore grey hair to original color when used with inositol, folic acid and pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), if greying was due to stress or deficiency in the B vitamins
4. has been used, together with biotin, folic acid, pantothenic acid, and sometimes vitamin E, to restore hair
5. early studies show may help treat vitiligo (loss of color or pigmentation in some areas of skin)
6. may prevent accumulation of abnormal fibrous tissue
7. assists formation of red blood cells
8. acts as a coenzyme in the metabolism and utilization of protein

Vitamin C and the B group vitamins, plus Folic Acid are best taken with PABA. An allowance of between 30 mg to 100 mg a day is considered reasonable for a healthy person.
A typical therapeutic dose may be in the region of 200 milligrams (mg) for children to 400 mg for adults. Do not take more than 400 mg daily except under medical advice, to avoid PABA toxicity.

PABA side effects arise from allergic reactions rather than from overdosing. Signs of allergy include coma, diarrhea, dizziness, fever, liver damage, nausea, skin rashes, shortness of breath, slowed breathing, stupor, and vomiting. These require immediate medical attention.

Sulfur is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. Sulfur is vital to the creation and regeneration of the body’s tissues. Sulfur is an indispensable component in human nutrition. MSM is found in every cell in the body. Sulfur itself is held mainly in the muscles, skin, bones, nails and hair. MSM dietary supplements provide the essential sulfur necessary for a number of body compounds.

Symptoms of Sulfur Deficiency may include skin problems or disorders, muscle pain, nerve disorders, circulatory trouble, arthritis, inflammation, damages resulting from free radicals, stress, infection, constipation and wrinkles.

Sulfur has a reputation as being the body’s beautifying mineral. It plays a significant role in the production of collagen, skin’s best ally. Sulfur is also involved in cellular respiration, which in simple terms means it helps the cells use oxygen efficiently.
Sulfur helps the body rid itself of toxins which is why it’s known as a detoxifier. That’s important because over time, toxins can build up inside the body and cause the immune system to weaken, or create an overall feeling of lethargy or even impair the body’s own built-in cleansing system, the kidneys and liver. When the body is detoxified, it feels rejuvenated.
Sulfur has many anti aging properties and it helps relieve the symptoms associated with age related conditions such as arthritis. Sulfur has been used to relieve the symptoms of skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, diaper rash, hemorrhoids, dry scalp and acne.
Sulfur also plays a very key role in the metabolism of several important B-vitamins including B-1, B-5 and Biotin.

Inositol is considered unofficially part of the Vitamin-B complex family. It plays a vital role in your cell membranes as to its appropriate formation. In order to achieve heightened effectiveness of the various cells inside you, its membranes must be healthy.

Choline is a chemical similar to the B-vitamins. Choline serves various functions in our bodies – in the structure of cell membranes, protecting our livers from accumulating fat, as the precursor molecule for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and more. Because of rapid development in fetuses and infants, we have a great need for choline in our early lives. Human milk has high levels of choline.
Choline is a nutrient found in many food sources, including milk, liver, eggs, peanuts, soybeans, beef, cauliflower, kale, and cabbage.
