Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is crucial for energy metabolism and biosynthetic processes as a precursor to flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Deficiency is common and particularly affects women's health due to increased needs during hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. Innovative strategies, like riboflavin-producing lactic acid bacteria, can enhance riboflavin intake while providing probiotic benefits. Lactobacillus species are especially important for vaginal health and gut microbiota. This review explores the molecular mechanisms and health benefits of riboflavin for women, emphasizing the synergistic potential of riboflavin-producing probiotics to meet dietary needs and support overall well-being.
