The Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) test is used to evaluate the level of riboflavin, an essential water-soluble vitamin, in the body. Riboflavin plays a key role in energy production by helping convert carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into usable energy. It is also important for maintaining healthy skin, eyes, and nerve function.

Deficiency of vitamin B2 can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, sore throat, cracks at the corners of the mouth, skin disorders, and eye-related problems. It is commonly seen in individuals with poor nutrition, chronic illnesses, or malabsorption conditions.

This test helps in diagnosing riboflavin deficiency and assessing overall nutritional status. It may also be used to monitor individuals receiving vitamin supplementation or those at risk of deficiency.

The purpose of the Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) test is to:

• Measure riboflavin levels in the body
• Detect vitamin B2 deficiency
• Assess nutritional status
• Evaluate energy metabolism
• Monitor response to supplementation
