Essentials

  • Riboflavin, or Vitamin B2, is widely recognized for its role in supporting cognitive health and overall well-being, benefiting the brain, heart, and gut.*
  • This dual functionality makes Riboflavin a sustainable and promising choice for those avoiding artificial additives in their nootropics.

Ever heard the saying, “You are what you eat”? Well, here's a nugget of wisdom that may just make you sit up and take notice.

Most probably know about Riboflavin's (Vitamin B2) role in supporting cognitive health and general well-being. It's one of those neuro-nutrients with many potential benefits not just for your Head [1st Brain], but also for the rest of your brain system (Heart [2nd Brain] and Gut [3rd Brain]).*

Riboflavin can play an integral part in your body's cells' health, development, and operation. It also aids in converting the food you consume into energy for the three brains.*

Now, here's the curveball. How many of you have connected the dots between Riboflavin and its potential as a non-artificial color in nootropics?

A non-artificial dye chemically identical to Vitamin B2?

Yes. Riboflavin is Riboflavin regardless of whether it is used as a nutrient or a non-artificial color. It has the exact same chemical structure. And being chemically identical to Vitamin B2, it may offer some unique characteristics in terms of added benefits.

Plus, as a water-soluble nutrient, any excess Riboflavin is typically excreted through urine.

This dual advantage makes Riboflavin a promising and sustainable choice for those who steer clear of potentially dangerous excipients and other artificial additives in their nootropics.*

It's also why we at HCF® have chosen to explore alternatives—like Riboflavin—in our advanced nootropics.
