Vitamin B2 - Riboflavin
Riboflavin, or vitamin B2, like thiamine, serves as a coenzyme—one that must combine
with a portion of another enzyme to be effective—in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and,
especially, respiratory proteins. It also serves in the maintenance of mucous membranes. Riboflavin deficiency may be complicated by a deficiency
of other B vitamins; its symptoms, which are not as definite as those of a lack of thiamine, are skin lesions, especially around the nose and
lips, and sensitivity to light. The best sources of riboflavin are liver, milk, meat, dark green vegetables, whole grain and enriched cereals,
pasta, bread, and mushrooms.
