For the vitamins, minerals and fibre that meat alone cannot give you.

Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a vital role in human health. Every day your body is performing processes that keep you alive and well. From breathing, your blood flowing through your veins, neurons firing in your brain and even your bones staying strong enough to keep you upright and mobile. However, none of this would be possible without nutrients, including vitamins and minerals, which provide your cells with the raw materials for your body to function. In this article, you will learn all what magnesium is and how to get more of it in your diet. While vitamins and minerals are both micronutrients and necessary for your body to function, they differ in some ways. Vitamins are organic and can be broken down by factors such as heat or air. Vitamins that you need include vitamins A, D, E and K. Minerals are naturally occurring elements found in the earth. They cannot be made by organisms. When plants grow, they take minerals from the soil. When we eat plants (or animals that have eaten plants), we consume minerals, so long as the soil is rich in them. Unlike vitamins, minerals are inorganic and do not break down. Examples of minerals include calcium, iron, and magnesium.

many enzymes require vitamins and/or minerals to function properly. Without them, they cannot catalyze their reaction.
Yes they do, certain colors provide certain vitamins/minerals and only sunlight has all the vitamins/minerals needed. Plants get vitamins and minerals from soil, not sunlight. Plants grow slowest under green light because chlorophyll reflects green light (which is why they look green). Plants grow faster under red or blue light. Sunlight is a mixture of red, green and blue light. Plants do get vitamin D from the sun, as do people. Plants do not generate vitamin D from sunlight. Vitamin D is generated in the skin of vertebrates and is necessary for maintaining the bones. The vitamins that plants cannot gather from the soil are generated using a number of different methods. Plants do not require vitamin D.
