Riboflavin Sodium Phosphate
Brief Introduction
Riboflavin sodium phosphate is the prodrug of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), and its Chinese aliases are vitamin B2 sodium phosphate, flavin mononucleotide sodium, riboflavin-5'- Dihydrogen phosphate) monosodium salt, FMN and FAD are important cofactors of the flavin enzyme family. Flavozymes catalyze many biochemical reactions, the most typical ones are redox alias reactions, which are key factors of cellular respiration.
Deficiency
When riboflavin sodium phosphate is deficient, it can affect the biological oxidation of the body and cause metabolic disorders. The lesions are mostly manifested as inflammation of the mouth, eyes, and external genitalia.
Uses
1.Riboflavin sodium phosphate can promote cell development and regeneration;
2. Riboflavin sodium phosphate can also promote the continued growth of hair, nails and skin;
3. Riboflavin sodium phosphate can help prevent and eliminate the inflammatory response of the mouth, tongue, and lips, which is also known as oral reproductive syndrome;
4. Riboflavin sodium phosphate can also help reduce eye fatigue and enhance vision;
5. Riboflavin sodium phosphate can affect the body's absorption of iron.
