What vitamins do meat have?
Meat is a great source of many vitamins and minerals, including:
B vitamins:
* B12: Found primarily in red meat, B12 is crucial for healthy nerve function, cell growth, and the production of red blood cells.
* B6: Essential for protein metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and immune function.
* Riboflavin (B2): Important for energy production and cell growth.
* Niacin (B3): Plays a role in energy production and DNA repair.
* Thiamin (B1): Involved in carbohydrate metabolism and nerve function.
Other vitamins:
* Vitamin D: Found in fatty fish and some red meats, vitamin D helps maintain calcium levels and supports bone health.
* Vitamin E: An antioxidant that protects cells from damage.
Minerals:
* Iron: Meat, particularly red meat, is a great source of heme iron, which is readily absorbed by the body. Iron is essential for red blood cell production and oxygen transport.
* Zinc: Important for immune function, wound healing, and cell growth.
* Selenium: An antioxidant that protects cells from damage.
* Phosphorus: Plays a key role in bone health, energy production, and cell function.
