The nutrient group that provides vitamins A, B12, pantothenic acid, thiamine, and riboflavin is primarily animal products, particularly meats, dairy, and eggs.
- Vitamin A is found in animal products like liver and dairy, as well as in plant sources as provitamin A carotenoids (e.g., from carrots, sweet potatoes).
- Vitamin B12 is found almost exclusively in animal products such as meat, fish, dairy, and eggs.
- Pantothenic acid is present in a variety of foods, but particularly in meats, whole grains, and avocados.
- Thiamine (Vitamin B1) can be found in whole grains, pork, and legumes.
- Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is found in dairy products, meats, and leafy green vegetables.
Overall, while these vitamins can be obtained from various dietary sources, animal products are particularly rich in several of them, especially vitamins A and B12.
