FREEDA Riboflavin Vitamin B2 Tablets – 50mg – Optimised Dose for Energy & Nervous System Support – Kosher, Vegan, GF B2 Vitamins Supplement – VIT B 2 for Brain & Metabolism (100 Ct)

Benefits of Riboflavin

Riboflavin (vitamin B2) contributes to several vital functions in the body. It supports normal energy-yielding metabolism, helps maintain healthy red blood cells, and protects cells from oxidative stress. The vitamin also plays a role in maintaining normal skin, vision, and nervous system function.*

• Energy Production: Riboflavin is essential for metabolising carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into ATP—the cellular fuel used for muscle contraction, brain function, and more.
• Nervous System Support: It contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and may help sustain cognitive health as part of a balanced diet.*
• Antioxidant Defence: As part of glutathione reductase, riboflavin aids in regenerating glutathione, one of the body’s key antioxidants.

These benefits make riboflavin a valuable addition to daily wellness routines, particularly for those with active lifestyles or nutritional gaps.

Who Should Consider a Riboflavin Supplement?

While many people obtain enough riboflavin from food, certain groups may need extra. Individuals following restrictive diets (vegan, vegetarian, or dairy-free) often have lower intakes. Athletes and physically active people have higher energy demands and may require additional B2 to support mitochondrial function. Older adults, those with digestive conditions, or people taking certain medications (e.g., some antidepressants or oral contraceptives) may also have increased needs. Always consult a health care professional before starting any supplement.

How to Choose the Right Riboflavin Supplement

Not all riboflavin supplements are the same. Key factors include the form (riboflavin vs. riboflavin 5’-phosphate), dosage, and purity. FREEDA’s Riboflavin tablets deliver 50 mg of riboflavin in its standard, well-researched form. This product is certified kosher, vegan, and gluten-free—free from artificial colours, flavours, preservatives, dairy, and common allergens. Manufactured in the USA in a GMP-certified facility with over 90 years of experience, it meets strict quality control standards for purity and potency. Third-party testing ensures you get what the label says.

What Is Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)?

Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a water-soluble vitamin in the B-complex family. It acts as a precursor for flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), two coenzymes vital for cellular energy production. Every cell relies on riboflavin to convert food into usable energy. Because the body does not store large amounts, consistent dietary intake—or supplementation—is needed to maintain optimal levels.

Food sources include dairy products, eggs, lean meats, and green leafy vegetables. However, factors such as poor diet, certain medications, or increased physical demands can create a need for additional B2. A high-quality supplement like FREEDA’s 50 mg tablets helps fill the gap.

Recommended Dosage and Safety

The typical supplementation dose of riboflavin ranges from 25 mg to 100 mg per day; some protocols use higher amounts under professional guidance. FREEDA offers 50 mg per tablet, a moderate dose suitable for most adults. A Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) has not been established due to low toxicity, but doses above 400 mg daily are not generally recommended without medical supervision. Riboflavin is water-soluble, so excess is excreted in urine, which may cause a harmless bright yellow colour. Mild digestive upset is rare but possible. Always follow label directions and consult your health care provider if you are pregnant, nursing, or have a medical condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can riboflavin help with migraines?

Some research indicates riboflavin may support normal neurological function, which could be relevant for headaches. However, we cannot make specific health claims regarding migraines. Consult your health care provider for personalised advice.

Is it safe to take riboflavin with other B vitamins?

Yes. Riboflavin is often taken alongside other B-complex vitamins. They work synergistically, and combining them is generally safe as part of a balanced supplement regimen.

What is the difference between riboflavin and riboflavin 5’-phosphate?

Riboflavin is the standard form, while riboflavin 5’-phosphate is the active coenzyme form. Both are effective; the body converts riboflavin into its active form efficiently. FREEDA use riboflavin, which is well-absorbed and cost-effective.
