Vitamin B2, also known as vitamin B2, is a yellow water-soluble B vitamin. Our common water-soluble multivitamin B tablets are generally bright yellow, which is the color of vitamin B2.

The endocrine system of vitamin B2 Vitamin B2 is a very important vitamin in the human body. It is distributed everywhere in the human body and plays a very important role in maintaining the normal endocrine system of the body. The main function of vitamin B2 is to participate in the transport of "hydrogen" as a coenzyme, which can assist the body's various redox enzymes to function and maintain the body's normal functions. Its main endocrine systems are: 1. Participate in the oxidative phosphorylation of various nutrients in the body and increase the body's utilization rate of protein and carbohydrates. Therefore, sufficient vitamin B2 is very important for promoting development and maintaining the integrity and health of the skin and mucous membranes. 2. Vitamin B2 promotes the metabolism of hair cells and has the function of maintaining the health of hair follicles and sebaceous glands. 3. Vitamin B2 participates in the digestion, absorption and transportation of iron, which helps to convert iron into hemoglobin. 4. Vitamin B2 participates in the metabolism of vitamin B6 and vitamin B3, which is a typical example of the synergistic effect of B vitamins in the body. Therefore, when supplementing vitamin B6 and B3, appropriate supplementation of vitamin B2 will help improve digestion and conversion rate. The main symptoms of vitamin B2 deficiency in the human body If the body lacks vitamin B2, skin and mucous membrane related diseases will generally occur, such as angular cheilitis, glossitis, oral ulcers, stomatitis, geographic tongue, etc. in the mouth, blepharitis, corneal cell hyperplasia, conjunctivitis, etc. around the eyes; folliculitis, papules, postauricular seborrheic dermatitis, etc. on the skin; scrotitis, vulvar itching, dryness of the female genitals, mucosal hematoma, and even ulceration in the private parts.
