The capsules are bright yellow in color (as in the photos), small in size, with strong smell. Compact plastic jar with a protective membrane. I take 1 capsule after breakfast in the morning with water. The course is from 10 to 30 days. It can be repeated by me in 3 months. Riboflavin (vitamin B-2) is a water-soluble vitamin essential for normal cellular function, tissue respiration, metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. With a lack of vitamin B-2 may occur lethargy, insomnia, decreased visual acuity, cracked lips, lesions of mucous membranes, digestive disorders, dry skin, hair loss. It's also important to remember that the body's need for riboflavin increases with intense physical activity and taking oral contraceptives. Good health to all!
Coenzymated Vitamin B2 Energy and Metabolism Vitamin Supplement Delivers B2 Directly in its Active Form so it's Ready to Perform Essential For Cellular Energy Metabolism Science-Backed Quality Since 1969 Vegetarian Like many other B-complex vitamins, riboflavin must be converted into its active form to be utilized by your cells, hence the importance of riboflavin 5'-phosphate supplements. In the human body, this process takes place in the cellular mitochondria when dietary riboflavin is converted by the enzyme riboflavin kinase into riboflavin 5’-phosphate (R5P), which is the principal form of riboflavin found in cells and tissues. Swanson Ultra R-5-P lets your body sidestep this process by delivering the vitamin directly in its active form so it’s ready to perform its vital functions in cellular energy metabolism.

My son has tremors or jerks from Long covid. He takes a high dose of these daily (8 pills) and his tremors are almost non existent. He ran out and they came back. They are expensive and it is a lot of pills to take daily, but they work. He doesn't like the taste. The quality seems to be great, I haven't tried another brand. He also does eod b12 injections. I would like a bigger package to purchase
I was taking TTFD (vit B1) and it started giving me chapped lips. So I read that b1 uses up Riboflavin. Hence, I took these and my lips returned to normal.
I like this one, I'm prone to headaches and it certainly helps a bit. I started to take it after we were taking 400mg riboflavin from the Seeking Health and this one feels more effective for me. This one has a much higher R5P content than the Seeking Health one. The R5P from Thorne is half the amount of this and twice as expensive. I'm going to buy this as long as something better comes out on the site.
This is the best form of vitamin B2. Riboflavin-5-phosphate is bioactive and does not require conversion by the liver, which makes it much more effective for people with low thyroid, migraines or mitochondrial fatigue. I noticed clearer vision, better energy and less brain fog. Good quality.
Well formulated riboflavin 5 phosphate providing the active coenzyme form of B2, which is directly utilized in cellular redox reactions and methylation pathways. The effect is subtle but tangible, better energy consistency and reduced fatigue, especially when combined with other activated B complex nutrients. No fillers or colorants, and overall excellent tolerability.
Really impressed with this Swanson R‑5‑P, excellent quality, with the active form of riboflavin for better absorption. Ingredients are clean, no fillers or unnecessary extras. The capsules are a small size, easy to swallow. Ideal for energy support and keeping things balanced. definitely worth having in your daily routine!
Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate is the active form of B6 - your liver has to convert regular pyridoxine to P-5-P before it can be used, and that conversion is impaired in a lot of people. 20mg is a moderate, sensible dose. I switched to this from regular B6 and noticed a real difference in how calm and focused I felt, and PMS symptoms my partner dealt with also improved noticeably when she started taking it. Swanson keeps the price accessible without cutting corners on the form. Solid product.
Most cheap B2 riboflavin supplements require your body to convert them into an active form which is a problem if you are methyl-sensitive. This R-5-P is already in its active state, so your brain and body can use it immediately for clean energy and migraine relief without any side effects. Because it is fully active, this simple 50 mg dose easily replaces the massive 400 mg standard pills.
This product showcases excellent quality and an ideal, user-friendly size. It is securely packaged and crafted from clean, premium ingredients. The advantages it offers are both evident and highly satisfying.
