Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a water-soluble vitamin essential for various metabolic processes in the body. It appears as a yellow to orange crystalline powder and is naturally found in foods such as milk, eggs, green leafy vegetables, and fortified cereals. Riboflavin is crucial for energy production, as it is a component of coenzymes involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It also plays a role in maintaining healthy skin, eyes, and nervous system. Riboflavin is used as a dietary supplement to prevent and treat riboflavin deficiency, which can lead to conditions such as ariboflavinosis and anemia. It is also employed as a food additive and colorant in various processed foods. Riboflavin is generally considered safe, but high doses may cause urine discoloration. Proper storage and handling are essential to preserve its stability and effectiveness.
