>>12775060>B12Can be sourced from various fungi, algae such as seaweed, and quite a few different grains.
>CreatineNot sure if b8 but the human body literally creates creatine in the kidneys with readily available amino acids
>Vitamin D3Vitamin D3 is produced in the skin from 7-dehydrocholesterol, just by chilling in the sun. If you are worried about vitamin D2, that is abundant in plant sterols.
>CarnosineOne of the few things that really can't be found in plants. Pretty appropriately named kek. Human body does make it in small amounts from free amino acids, but higher intake is healthy for muscle integrity and removing plaques in the brain.
>HemeLiterally a carcinogenic, free-radical fuckfest of a molecule. There is no heath benefits to ingesting heme. It's an oxidant and takes a lot more energy to use as a source of iron.
>IronQuite a few beans and legumes have iron levels on par with red meat, with the added benefit of no carcinogenic heme groups involved.
>TaurineAnother amino acid the human body makes naturally. Benefits of increasing taurine intake is pretty spotty at best. There's a lot of conflicting studies involving athletic performance and workout vitality, but I wouldn't really trust these studies as they involved energy drinks with taurine as an ingredient, where caffeine would obviously skew results. Taurine is a component of bile salts though which will help to break down high cholesterol, fatty foods. But if you're eating your greens, you wouldn't need to break down much fat right ;)
A lot of these myths about plants not being able to produce micronutrients that meats do can be dispelled pretty easily if you understand even a bit of basic biochemistry and bioaccumulation in different trophic levels
