Riboflavin is another name for Vitamin B2. It is a necessary ingredient in many different metabolic processes that help to sustain cells with energy and also keep them healthy and growing. It does this by turning fats, proteins, and carbohydrates into energy post-metabolism by synthesizing sterols and fatty acids. Also, in terms of how it interacts with outside forces such as heat and acid, it is far more stable than the other B chain vitamin, B1 which is prone to act up on occasion. Besides actively being involved in the process of creating energy, riboflavin is also responsible for eventually being transformed into the coenzymes FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide) and FMN (flavin mononucleotide). These coenzymes act upon ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and help transport it throughout the body. In this way, riboflavin becomes important in two different facets of energy production, as ATP is the chemical that allows energy to both be created and stored in the muscles for later. Riboflavin helps cells utilize oxygen better and keeps the eyes sharp, and the nails, hair, and skin growing like a charm. It is a necessary component in the process that leads to cells growing.
