Riboflavin is the last isolated B-vitamin I bought and tested. I tested B-1, B-3, B-5, B-6, B-7, B-9 & B-12 (all on their own for 1 week). Yesterday I did my 1st dose of B-2... I woke up today and feel incredible. I was waking up every morning with a racing heart beat that would take 2-3 hrs to calm down. Was also getting weird itching sensations and eyes very sensitive to the sun. I read this could be due to B-2 deficiency... but I was NOT expecting such a change in my fast heart beat. My heart beat is so calm right now I can't even feel it... and I can't remember the last time my chest felt like this. B vitamins amaze me I still can't believe how powerful these things are.

It's there affects as cofactors for enzyme fucntion. Not really a SNP problem more just a severe nutrient deficiency, it's likely thanks to poor nutrition quality in modern diet (Standard American/ Western Diet).

Superb video! Thank you for sharing.
I have functional B2/B12 deficiency. B2 definitely helps me burn fat because when I take it, it's like thyroid and metabolism skyrocket regardless of food intake and my weight starts to drop. Careful not to OD on riboflavin but helpful if sensitive to folate supplements. Also, B2 seems to definitely help when I'm on keto. It's like the induction process into keto is much smoother.

Thank you for this B2 fat burning info. I have gained 5 kilo since treating my B12 deficiency and have not been able to figure out why. My homocysteine is also elevated. I'm going to give B2 a go. I take a B complex but may need extra B2.
Excellent video.
Oh dear god I need the next riboflavin video fast!
Thank you for sharing your brilliance! P.S. You look extra nice in the red shirt = )
Nutritional yeast will give you both b1 & b2.
Wow, it's amazing, Chris's story is similar to mine. Vegetarian, vegan for health -> quitting, meat somewhat saving me (but panic attacks and anemia starting while going BACK on meat) -> realizing I have issues with iron... what other unraveling mysteries await me?
Ok completely unrelated but this shirt color looks amazing on you.

Any experience regarding riboflavin deficiency from taking SSRIs?
I did a stratagene test and I have figured out I have A Fast MAOA gene. Will this supplement be beneficial for me?
What about someone with only scalp inflammation and heavy hair shedding? I've seborrheic dermatitis and am trying keto the past few months to optimise health but inflammation and shedding is worse than ever. I feel like I've exhausted everything and it's driving me crazy. Please advise 🙏
Great content though your mic is still really noisy rubbing on your shirt, its hard to listen to. Its almost as loud as your voice. With the bass boosted in production it makes it particularly loud. Cheers for the great info.
This is what's wrong with me I started having seizures and I have the conjunctivitis and at times I get the red lines on my legs and dry skin I also have the dry feet. Blood shot eyes the iron pills doesn't work. I'm miserable

Would dry mouth and irritated tongue be a b vitamin deficiency . This all started once going in keto
I have no idea where to go to get these things tested. My regular doctor will only check b12.

I think I definitely have some deficiencies, I just don't know which ones. B12, folate etc seemed to help for a while, but now I'm kinda stuck. I've been studying histamine intolerance and glutamate intolerance, and I'm pretty sure those two cause a lot of my health issues. I'm going to try low-histamine and low-glutamate diet to see if that helps. If anyone has suggestions about good supplements to take along with the diet and help with OCD, anxiety and gut issues I would appreciate it very much! Or personal experience with the diets I mentioned?

The first set of symptoms are not specific to low riboflavin. The second are highly unlikely for anyone on even a poor quality Western diet.
I would think that is pretty difficult to be deficient in B2 because it's present in many different foods, and it's also synthesized by intestinal bacteria.
@nameremoved4010

The evidence as I recall it is that the net from intestinal bacteria is negative (lessen) not positive. And it is clear at least some benefit with levels well beyond the minimum.
