It can be added to frosting or drinks in small amounts for interesting effect during a black-light party!But my use was VERY different.... I had a leak in my home well water pump system that I needed to trace. ALL commercial water tracing products had ingestion warnings / not fit for human consumption.Fortunately, riboflavin strongly fluoresces under UV light, is consumable even in large doses, and water soluble. That last part is most important, because not only will it easily mix in my water system, any amount ingested that the body cannot use will be easily expelled!I added about 1/2 the package to my water system, waited till nightfall, then easily found the source of my leak & the 2x increased electricity bill that let me know something was wrong... Although the main leak could be seen during daytime (as seen in attached photo), there were 2 smaller leaks that I wasn't able to see till night time & would never have found without the intense UV glow of the riboflavin.ONLY downside, riboflavin is VERY bitter. Also I had to let it go into my water heater because I didn't know if it was hot or cold line that was leaking.... It's already completely flushed out of the cold water lines, but still tints the hot water.

Riboflavin is important to the metabolism in several ways, including- Conversion of vitamin B6 to P5P- Conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to niacin (vitamin B3)- Folate production- Regulation of homocysteine levels- Metabolism of fats, hormones, and drugs- Energy production and growthRiboflavin is degraded by sunlight, and UV light. This applies to stored riboflavin whether in bulk, in milk, or even in your body.Like sun exposure, greater physical activity, also increases the body's need for riboflavin.A deficiency can easily go unnoticed as riboflavin levels are not routinely tested.Meat and dairy products are the primary sources of dietary riboflavin.

When I reached out to the seller about the bag being beat up and stained, they said Riboflavin has a yellow color to the powder and that most likely during production, the powder got on the bags. Of course, I can pay to return it ...

Vitamin B2 Riboflavin supports methylation, which is impaired with MTHFR polymorphisms, and healthy protein folding. It also supports fat metabolism, glutathione production, and is particularly important to reduce oxidative stress, especially for individuals with hemolytic anemia, like those with favism/G6PD deficiency (if you react poorly to Fava beans, this is you.)Bulksupplements Riboflavin powder is bright orange and will turn your pee neon yellow. It seems like it's working.

BulkSuppliments has always been the one GoTo company for my vitamins. One has to remember that the bulky multivitamins are almost pointless when it comes to the body absorbing everything they have to offer. The reason is that those vitamins contain such a concentrated form of the vitamin/suplement that the body cannot and does absorb it.BulkSupplements, in my opinion, has put tried to make each supplement is body absorbable as possible. And I believe that it shows… I have been taking BulkSupplements for over a year now and have noticed a huge improvement in both my mind and body. Of course it takes time for all supplements to work. They are not wonder drugs but nature’s way to make the body healthy.Please keep in mind that BulkSupplements pride themselves on the quality (and control) of their supplements. Do not be afraid to ask for a report of the product analysis for each batch they distribute. Make them prove to you that their product is the best out there. I have over 30 orders of BulkSupplements under my belt. Their product is the best!

I see fro other reviews that most people take this for Migraine Headaches. I do no suffer from Migraines, but I do have eye pain caused by a large eye floater which subsequently caused some retinopathy. This happened 2 years ago. I was told that either it would heal on its own, or require surgery within a year. I am not a believer in surgery until it is absolutely necessary. I opted for supplements designed to heal the retina. Riboflavin (Vit.B2) and Thiamine (B1), Collageni.C and Hyalauronic Acid, Taurine, Vit A, Betacarotene, Lycopene have cured most of my eye problems. Light sensitivity, eye pain, swelling, dry eye, blurred vision and eye strain, have all been decreased dramatically by using this protocol. My retina is healed and my eyesight is improving. I mix the B2, B1, Taurine, & Collagen in V8 Tomato Juice. The tomato juice is also rich in Vitamin A. The tomato juice is strong enough to mask the taste of the vitamins. (most taste terrible) I love my "recipe" and will never be without it. I use a lot of Bulk Supplements products and I find all of them to be excellent products. I highly recommend Bulk Supplements
