Here are tips for increasing your riboflavin intake:
- Snack on raw, unsalted almonds.
- Purchase smoked mackerel and serve over whole-wheat crackers for an easy snack.
- For nearly twice the riboflavin, substitute fresh pasta for regular dry pasta on your next spaghetti night.
Other good riboflavin sources include soynuts, yogurt and milk. But, don’t buy milk in clear containers. Sunlight destroys half the riboflavin in a gallon of milk in just two hours.
