Where Do We Get It From? -The Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)-

🔥

B2 helps regulate levels of other B vitamins.

B2 is only somewhat water-soluble, so it's not well absorbed.

We tend to excrete the excess as bright yellow urine, which is harmless but potentially entertaining, especially for clients who may be new to taking vitamin supplements.

Some medications, such as oral contraceptives, can interfere with B2 uptake. B2 deficiency isn't common today, as many foods are fortified. However, B2 deficiency is common with malnutrition and may contribute to symptoms of anorexia, especially over time as nutrient intake dwindles.

We get it from:

- Soybeans

- Mushrooms

- Spinach

- Whole grains, especially wheat

- Almonds

- Eggs

- Shrimp

- Beef liver

- Dairy (There will be seasonal variations due to what the animals are eating.)

-Nutritional yeast

Do you know what could be the result of not getting enough?
