About Riboflavin
Riboflavin, also known as Vitamin B2, is an essential water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in energy production, cellular function, growth, and metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. It is vital for maintaining healthy skin, eyes, and the nervous system. Because it is water-soluble, the body does not store riboflavin, requiring regular intake through diet or supplementation.
