If you don’t get enough:
Except for people who are severely malnourished, a deficiency isn’t likely. Contrary to popular myth, riboflavin doesn’t cause hair loss.
What foods are rich in riboflavin?
Milk and other dairy foods are major sources of riboflavin. Some organ meats–liver, kidney, and heart–are excellent sources.
Enriched bread and other grain products, eggs, meat, green-leafy vegetables, and nuts supply smaller amounts. Ultraviolet light, such as sunlight, destroys riboflavin. That’s why milk is packed in opaque plastic or cardboard containers, not clear glass. Examples include:
Food Riboflavin (mg)
Beef liver, braised (3 ounces) 3.5
Yogurt (skim, 1 cup) 1.6
Milk (skim, 1 cup) 0.4
Enriched corn tortilla 0.2
Egg, one large 0.1
