What is Vitamin B2?

Vitamin B2 is one of eight B Vitamins that can be found in food and supplements. It is also known as Riboflavin.

What are the sources of Vitamin B2?

Vitamin B2 can be sourced from dairy, eggs, beef, pork and organ meats, chicken and salmon. Vitamin B2 can also be found in fortified cereals and bread, almonds and spinach.

How do they assist our bodies?

Like the other B vitamins, Vitamin B2 helps to breakdown carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It plays a key role in converting food into energy. Riboflavin, in particular, helps to convert carbohydrates into ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This is produced from food in your body then converted into energy.

Riboflavin can help prevent brain and heart disorders, as well as some cancers by fighting free radicals and reducing the damage they cause.

This is because Vitamin B2 is an antioxidant. Vitamin B2 also helps to keep your eyes, nervous system and skin healthy. It also helps your body to produce red blood cells and support other cellular functions.
