Vitamin B2 What is Vitamin B2(Riboflavin)? Vitamin B2 is yellow crystal, and its chemical name is riboflavin, the compound of a Latin word ‘flavus’ plus ‘ribose’ (side chain).

Loss in weight Riboflavin increases the level of thyroid gland hormone, thereby emitting energy to burn alkali. 2. Decrease of stress Riboflavin increases the secretion of anti-stress hormone, by enhancing the function of an adrenal. 3.

What is Vitamin B2(Riboflavin)?

Vitamin B2 is yellow crystal, and its chemical name is riboflavin, the compound of a Latin word ‘flavus’ plus ‘ribose’ (side chain).

Few riboflavin is stored in the body due to its solubility. While most of riboflavin is excreted through urine in the form of riboflavin or oxidant metabolite, a small amount of that is excreted through bileand sweat.

In addition, riboflavin participates in the metabolism where energy is supplied for cells by carbohydrate, fat and protein.

Effect of vitamin B2

1. Loss in weight
Riboflavin increases the level of thyroid gland hormone, thereby emitting energy to burn alkali.

2. Decrease of stress
Riboflavin increases the secretion of anti-stress hormone, by enhancing the function of an adrenal.

3. Anemia prevention
Riboflavin helps the generation of red blood cells to prevent against iron deficient anemia.

4. Hair loss prevention
Riboflavin involves in generation and growth of follicular cells, to remove hair follicle that causes hair loss and promote hair restoration. In particular, when vitamin B2 is absorbed together with zinc, the excellent effect of hair restoration is ensured.
