Vitamin b2

Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, forms the coenzymes FMN and FAD. These coenzymes help transfer electrons in energy-producing and antioxidant-related enzyme reactions.

It contributes to normal energy metabolism, maintenance of healthy skin and protection of cells from oxidative stress.

In everyday life, Vitamin B2 supports the steady release of cellular energy while helping maintain healthy skin and normal antioxidant defences.

Its nutritional contribution depends on the amount provided and overall dietary intake.

Ingredient overview

What it is

Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, forms the coenzymes FMN and FAD. These coenzymes help transfer electrons in energy-producing and antioxidant-related enzyme reactions.

  • Scientific identity: Vitamin B2; coenzymes: FMN and FAD.
  • How it works: Absorbed and converted: In the gut wall and liver it is converted into FMN and then FAD. Distributed to flavoenzymes: Those coenzymes are handed to a large family of enzymes across energy metabolism.
  • Primary function: It contributes to normal energy metabolism, maintenance of healthy skin and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
  • What it supports: Vitamin B2 supports the steady release of cellular energy while helping maintain healthy skin and normal antioxidant defences.
  • Important consideration: Its nutritional contribution depends on the amount provided and overall dietary intake.

Formulation rationale

Why we use it

CARPEDIEM selected Vitamin B2 for a clearly defined role within a thoughtfully balanced formulation.

  • Formulation purpose: It contributes to normal energy metabolism, maintenance of healthy skin and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
  • Used in: CARPEDIEM MultiTeen, CARPEDIEM MultiWomen and CARPEDIEM MultiMen.
  • Works alongside: Vitamin B2 complements Vitamin B1, Vitamin B3 / Niacin and Vitamin B5 to support comprehensive daily nutritional support.
  • Meaningful contribution: Vitamin B2 supports the steady release of cellular energy while helping maintain healthy skin and normal antioxidant defences. Helps maintain healthy skin and the normal condition of mucous membranes.
  • Quality and scientific context: Its nutritional contribution depends on the amount provided and overall dietary intake. Research is shown only when an ingredient-specific study demonstrates a relevant benefit.

Ingredient intelligence

How it works

Its value lies in the two electron carriers the body builds from it.

Step 01 / 04

Converted after absorption.

In the gut wall and liver it becomes FMN and then FAD, its two working coenzymes.

01 / 04

Coenzymes

FMN and FAD

Job

Carrying electrons in energy reactions

Also needed to

Recycle glutathione, activate vitamin B6

Property

Light-sensitive; excess turns urine yellow
