What Riboflavin Is
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is a water-soluble vitamin essential for cellular respiration, oxidative metabolism, and coenzyme formation. It forms FMN and FAD, two molecules the body relies on for electron transport and energy conversion.
Why Riboflavin Is Included in Apexx01
Riboflavin contributes to several EFSA-recognised physiological functions that align directly with metabolic consistency.
It contributes to:
-
normal energy-yielding metabolism
-
reduction of tiredness and fatigue
-
maintenance of normal skin
-
maintenance of normal mucous membranes
-
maintenance of normal red blood cells
-
normal functioning of the nervous system
-
protection of cells from oxidative stress
Riboflavin supports multiple layers of the formula simultaneously.
Why This Form: Riboflavin-5-Phosphate
Apexx01 uses the activated phosphorylated form (R5P) because:
-
it is closer to the bioactive coenzyme forms
-
it integrates smoothly in metabolic pathways
-
it dissolves well in multi-nutrient systems
-
it delivers consistent testability and stability
R5P is the most effective and predictable form of riboflavin for a complete formula.
Why This Dose: 50 mg
The dose ensures:
-
stable saturation of metabolic pathways
-
synergy with B1, B3, and B6
-
consistent availability for antioxidant protection
-
functional balance within the complete B-complex
It maintains robustness without unnecessary extremes.
EFSA-Recognised Nutritional Functions of Riboflavin
Riboflavin contributes to:
-
normal energy-yielding metabolism

How Riboflavin Works Inside the Full Formula
Riboflavin interacts with:
-
B1 & B3 → energy conversion
-
Magnesium → enzyme activation
-
Antioxidants → oxidative balance
-
CoQ10 → mitochondrial processes
It plays a structural role in the metabolic layer.
Why It Belongs in a Complete Daily Formula
Energy metabolism relies on coordinated B-complex availability. Riboflavin’s coenzyme functions make it indispensable for daily metabolic stability.
A complete protocol requires it every day.
