Riboflavin!

The link to the mitochondria is through FAD, a metabolic derivative of Riboflavin, which is used in the electron transport chain.

- boffinism 5y agoDidn't work for me. I think it's easy to come up with a pet theory ("migraines are caused by X, and therefore prevented by Y"), especially when there is some science to support you. But when you dig into it, you learn that while some treatments are wildly effective for a few people, no treatment is widely effective. If it were, migraines wouldn't be such a thing in the developed world. So by all means, let people know that Riboflavin might help them, but be wary of prescribing it to all and sundry when in truth, it will only help a minority.
- podgaj 5y agoHow much, how long, and what type? You’re not being scientific about it at all.

- DanielleMolloy 5y agoThis shouldn’t be downvoted, B2 / riboflavin is mentioned in the article too, next to Magnesium and Q10. Note that the recommended amount (100mg+) is far above the daily recommendation (~2mg).
