Pangamic acid is ...........................

  • A.Vitamin B-1
  • B.Vitamin B-6
  • C.Vitamin B-12
  • D.Vitamin B-15

Answer: D

Pangamic acid is called Vitamin B-15.

Pangamic acid was promoted from the 1950s, especially in the Soviet Union, as 'vitamin B15' and claimed to improve oxygen use and endurance in athletes. It is not a true vitamin: no deficiency disease is known and its composition varies between products, but in sports nutrition texts it is listed under that name.

Vitamin B-1 is thiamine, Vitamin B-6 is pyridoxine and Vitamin B-12 is cobalamin; none of them is pangamic acid.
