How about when people absorb sunlight and get their vitamin D? Does that count as a real world example?

Sunlight radiation causes a chemical reaction in the skin that converts other substances into Vitamin D. The energy is a trigger (like turning on the burner on your cooktop to caramelize onions), not the source of the vitamin.
