Bioactive riboflavin - sodium riboflavin-5-phosphate (R-5-P) - 100 mg vitamin B2 per daily dose (1 capsule) - 90 capsules

Nourishment for radiant skin

Riboflavin bioactive R-5-P from Unimedica has been developed to support the skin from within. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) acts as a coenzyme in numerous metabolic processes, contributes to the maintenance of normal skin and mucous membranes and can protect skin cells from oxidative stress. Our vitamin B2 works quickly. Thanks to the special R-5-P formulation, the riboflavin from the vegan capsules can be used by the body immediately. The special raw material is obtained by plant-based biofermentation.

A special formula for fast action without detours

These capsules from Unimedica contain bioactive vitamin B2 (riboflavin) in the form of R-5-P (sodium riboflavin-5-phosphate). It can be absorbed and utilised directly by the body without prior conversion. That means it is available to the body immediately. Encapsulated in a plant-based cellulose capsule, the riboflavin capsules from Unimedica are vegan. Rice flour is used as the carrier.

Why does the skin need vitamin B2?

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is an important nutrient for the skin and mucous membranes. It plays a key role in cell renewal and supports the skin’s moisture balance. It also reduces tiredness and fatigue and protects cells from oxidative stress. Vitamin B2 is also required for energy, protein and fat metabolism. These metabolic processes in turn also affect the appearance of the skin.

Riboflavin in the diet

Milk and dairy products, fish, meat (especially offal such as liver), eggs as well as certain cheeses (e.g. Camembert, mountain cheese and Emmental) and mushrooms provide vitamin B2. Plant-based sources include yeast, wheat germ, wholegrain products, broccoli, peas, kale and spinach.

Why supplementation can make sense

Vitamin B2 is water-soluble and cannot be stored by the body. Therefore we need to take it regularly with our diet. According to the German Food Federation, one in five adults in Germany consumes too little vitamin B2. Supplementation with riboflavin capsules can also be advisable for predominantly plant-based diets, as riboflavin is found in larger amounts mainly in animal foods. One Riboflavin capsule from Unimedica covers 7,143% of the daily requirement of this nutrient for a healthy adult.
