It highlights ariboflavinosis as a deficiency primarily affecting undernourished individuals but also noted in developed regions. The most reliable assessment of riboflavin status is glutathione reductase activity, while urinary excretion indicates dietary intake but can be affected by other factors.

Deficiency, known as ariboflavinosis, can cause various symptoms and is more likely in at-risk populations such as undernourished women and children. Certain medications and genetic factors can affect riboflavin bioavailability, leading to health risks like hypertension. Dietary sources include dairy and meat, with plant-based diets being more deficient.

Fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated, the latter being dietary essentials. Lipolysis converts triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol, leading to ATP production through β-oxidation and the Krebs cycle.

They have an outer membrane for structural integrity and inner folds called cristae containing essential proteins and enzymes for metabolic processes. Cells with high energy demands, like muscles and neurons, contain more mitochondria, whereas bone cells have fewer. Importantly, mitochondria also carry their own genetic material.
