Perhaps Rich could help us with this question as a number of us who have been following the threads about B2, realize that we may well have a deficiency, and some of us may also be taking considerable doses of hydrox B12 or methyl B12.
I am injecting 2.5 mg of hydrox B12 every other day and am wondering how much this might be depleting stores of B2. We have read that different B vitamins (as well as C and D) utilize B2 to be assimilated. So the question arises for me as to whether B12 is a "heavy" utilizer. Sorry not to have more scientific language for this question, but I think the meaning is clear.
I would like to continue "hefty" supplementation of B12, but don't want to further deplete B2. Since reading about the importance of B2, I have been taking 12.5 mg of the sublingual coenzymated type, 4 times per day.
Any thoughts on this question would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Sushi
