VITAMIN
Vitamin A comes from animal sources such as meat, egg yolks, milk, fish oil
Plants do not contain vitamin A, but contain carotenoids that will produce vitamin A
(provitamin A)
Carotenoids are found in all vegetables, especially green, yellow and leafy vegetables
The main sources of carotenoids in fruits are pumpkin, apricots, oranges and palms
Carotenoids in animal products come from feed
Tocopherol Tocotrienols
ROLE
• Vitamin E has antioxidant activity that can inhibit fat oxidation
• Plays a role in stabilizing other active compounds such as vitamin A,
hormones, and enzymes against oxidation
• Vitamin E deficiency causes infertility, anemia, and muscle disorders
• Prevent cardiovascular disease, cancer, cataracts, and improve the
immune system
4. VITAMIN K
• The vitamin K group is a derivative of naphthoquinone
(naphthoquinone) which has different side chains
• Vitamin K1 or phylloquinone or phytomenadione (also
called phytonadione)
• Vitamin K2 (menaquinone, menatetrenone) is produced
by bacteria in the large intestine and deficiency of this
vitamin is rare unless the intestine is impaired, unable to
absorb, or there is a decrease in the gut microbiome due
to the use of antibiotics.
• There are three types of synthetic vitamin K, namely K3,
K4, and K5 which are mainly used for pet feed (K3) and
anti-bacterial (K5).
ROLE
• Vitamin K plays a role in the process of carboxylation of
glutamate residues in proteins to gamma
carboxyglutamate (Gla)
• Gla residue plays a role in the calcium binding process
• Gla residues are important for the biological activity of
Gla-protein
• Gla-protein plays a role in blood coagulation, bone
metabolism, and vascular physiology
• Vitamin K is stored in adipose tissue
