One of the eight B-Vitamins, Vitamin B2 (also called RIBOFLAVIN) is important for body growth, reproduction and red cell production. This vitamin also helps in releasing energy from carbohydrates.
Signs you are low on Vitamin B2 :
A shortage of this vitamin may manifest itself as cracks and sores at the corners of the mouth, eye disorders, inflammation of the mouth and tongue, and skin lesions.
Dermatitis, dizziness, hair loss, insomnia, light sensitivity, poor digestion, retarded growth, and slow mental responses have also been reported due to Vitamin B2-shortage. Burning feet can also be indicative of a Vitamin B2-shortage.
