I'm copy-pasting this from previous arguments I've had with multiple users here regarding plants.
Vitamin A is synthesized from β-Carotene, which is abundantly found in plant sources.
Cooking carrots significantly increases the bioavailability of β-Carotene:
B6 is abundantly found in plant sources. Put 3 bananas in a blender and you already have as much as a whey protein concentrate:
B12-producing bacteria is found in dirt and pond water (the same place other mammals get it from). Cyanobacteria-rich pond water and dirt have more (which is where mammals get their B12 from).
Vitamin D is found in lichen and mushrooms (or just synthesized by being out in the sun). Lichen has more.
Vitamin F is abundant in multiple plant sources.
Vitamin K2 is abundant in multiple fermented plant sources. Cooked Natto has significantly more.
Creatine is synthesized naturally in humans (and isn't considered an essential dietary amino acid).
Carnitine is synthesized naturally in humans (and isn't considered an essential dietary amino acid).
Carnosine is synthesized naturally in humans (and isn't considered an essential dietary amino acid).
Taurine is synthesized naturally in humans (and isn't considered an essential dietary amino acid).
Non-heme iron absorbs less proficiently, but there is a positive correlation between heme iron consumption and cancer risk.
Ubiquinone is abundantly found in seeds and grains.
Cholesterol is synthesized naturally in humans.
CLA can be found in fruit seeds, seed oils, roots, etc.:
Saturated fat is abundantly found in plant oils.
