Vitamins
Thiamin (B1)Thiamin (B1)FunctionThiamin, also known as vitamin B1, helps convert carbohydrates into usable energy, which supports steady energy through the day. It also plays a role in nerve function.Top food sources of Thiamin (B1) →0.016 / 1.2 mg1%
Riboflavin (B2)Riboflavin (B2)FunctionRiboflavin, or vitamin B2, helps the body turn food into energy and supports healthy skin and eyes. It works alongside the other B vitamins in energy metabolism.Top food sources of Riboflavin (B2) →0.059 / 1.3 mg5%
Niacin (B3)Niacin (B3)FunctionNiacin, or vitamin B3, is central to energy production in nearly every cell and supports steady glucose response as part of that metabolic machinery.Top food sources of Niacin (B3) →2.6 / 16 mg16%
Pantothenic Acid (B5)Pantothenic Acid (B5)FunctionPantothenic acid, vitamin B5, is needed to build coenzyme A, a molecule central to turning carbs, fat, and protein into usable energy.Top food sources of Pantothenic Acid (B5) →0.309 / 5 mg6%
FolateFolateFunctionFolate supports DNA synthesis and red blood cell formation. It is especially important during periods of rapid cell growth.Top food sources of Folate →9.57 / 400 µg2%
Vitamin B12Vitamin B12FunctionVitamin B12 is needed for red blood cell formation and nerve function. It is found almost exclusively in animal foods, so plant-based eaters often need a fortified source.Top food sources of Vitamin B12 →1.36 / 2.4 µg57%
Vitamin CVitamin CFunctionVitamin C is an antioxidant that supports collagen formation, immune function, and iron absorption from plant foods.Top food sources of Vitamin C →4.79 / 90 mg5%
Minerals
CalciumCalciumFunctionCalcium builds and maintains bone structure and supports muscle contraction and nerve signaling. Most of the body's supply lives in bones and teeth.Top food sources of Calcium →12.8 / 1,000 mg1%
IronIronFunctionIron is a core component of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen through the blood. Steady iron intake supports energy levels and endurance.Top food sources of Iron →1.62 / 18 mg9%
PhosphorusPhosphorusFunctionPhosphorus works alongside calcium to build bone and teeth, and it is a key part of the energy-carrying molecule ATP.Top food sources of Phosphorus →133 / 700 mg19%
PotassiumPotassiumFunctionPotassium helps regulate fluid balance and blood pressure and supports normal muscle and nerve function, including a steady heartbeat.Top food sources of Potassium →244 / 3,500 mg7%
SodiumSodiumFunctionSodium helps regulate fluid balance and nerve signaling, but most diets already get plenty from processed and restaurant food. Keeping intake moderate matters more than adding it.Top food sources of Sodium →43.6 / 2,300 mg2%
ZincZincFunctionZinc supports immune function, wound healing, and protein synthesis, and it plays a role in recovery after physical activity.Top food sources of Zinc →3.4 / 11 mg31%
SeleniumSeleniumFunctionSelenium supports antioxidant defense and thyroid hormone metabolism. Just a couple of Brazil nuts can cover a full day's worth.Top food sources of Selenium →6.97 / 55 µg13%
Fats
Polyunsaturated FatPolyunsaturated FatFunctionPolyunsaturated fats include the essential omega-3 and omega-6 fats the body cannot make on its own and must get from food.Top food sources of Polyunsaturated Fat →0.106 g
Monounsaturated FatMonounsaturated FatFunctionMonounsaturated fats are found in olive oil, avocados, and many nuts and are linked with healthy cholesterol balance when they replace saturated fat.Top food sources of Monounsaturated Fat →1.43 g
Saturated FatSaturated FatFunctionSaturated fat is solid at room temperature and found mainly in animal foods and tropical oils. Keeping intake moderate supports healthier cholesterol balance over time.Top food sources of Saturated Fat →1.43 / 20 g7%
CholesterolCholesterolFunctionDietary cholesterol comes only from animal foods and has a smaller effect on blood cholesterol for most people than saturated fat does. Moderating intake is still a reasonable general target.Top food sources of Cholesterol →30.9 / 300 mg10%
Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid)Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid)FunctionLinoleic acid is the essential omega-6 fat most common in the diet, found abundantly in vegetable oils and nuts.Top food sources of Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid) →0.08 g
