Vitamin B2 / Riboflavin

Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, is a factor in the production of body energy. It also
has some anti-oxidant qualities. People who engage in vigorous physical
exercise will require more riboflavin than people who are sedentary.

Deficiencies in riboflavin can effect skin and mucous membranes, causing
cracks and dryness in the lips, dryness of the mouth and tongue, and eczema.

Riboflavin is water-soluble, meaning that the human body cannot store it and it
must be replaced regularly through one's diet to avoid deficiencies. The richest
sources of riboflavin are cheese, yogurt and eggs. Riboflavin has not been
shown to be toxic.

The U.S. Recommended Daily Allowance of riboflavin is 1.7 milligrams.
