What are the precursors to vitamins A and K?

The precursor to vitamin A is beta-carotene, a compound found in plants such as carrots and sweet potatoes. The precursors to vitamin K are phylloquinone (vitamin K1) found in plants, and menaquinone (vitamin K2) produced by bacteria in the gut and found in animal products.


Is vitamin K the same as vitamin K2?

No, vitamin K is not the same as vitamin K2; rather, vitamin K refers to a group of related compounds, including vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone). Vitamin K1 is primarily found in green leafy vegetables, while vitamin K2 is found in fermented foods and animal products. Both forms play essential roles in blood clotting and bone health, but they have different dietary sources and functions in the body.


Difference between vitamin A1 and A2?

Vitamin A1 is the most common form of vitamin A found in animal sources like eggs and liver, while vitamin A2 is found in smaller amounts in dairy sources like milk and certain types of cheese. Both forms can be converted to the active form of vitamin A (retinol) in the body, but vitamin A2 is believed to have a slightly different absorption rate and metabolic fate compared to vitamin A1.
