Almonds & Riboflavin

Why Riboflavin Matters—and How Almonds Deliver

A simple handful of almonds delivers riboflavin—an essential nutrient for energy and iron absorption. 

Riboflavin, commonly known as vitamin B2, is an essential micronutrient our body needs every day for:  

  • Energy metabolism: converting food into fuel. 
  • Oxygen Transport: Aiding iron absorption, to help produce red blood cells and prevent iron-deficiency anemia.  

Almonds & Riboflavin

Riboflavin is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning it will not be stored in the body for long, so you will need to get it regularly through your diet.

Almonds are an excellent source of riboflavin, offering 25% of your daily needs in one serving (28g or 1oz).

As one of the most researched foods, almonds may help aid exercise recovery and improve skin health thanks to a bounty of key nutrients found in almonds such as riboflavin, vitamin E, plant-based protein and fiber.
