This website helped me compile the following list of relatively low-carb foods that will get me my nutrients: Vitamin D - salmon, mackeral, tuna, sardines Vitamin E - wheat germ oil, almonds, sunflower seeds, safflower oil Vitamin K - asparagus, brussels sprouts, cabbage, soybeans, dark leafy greens Vitamin C - lemons, limes, grapefruit, tomatoes, strawberries, peppers, spinach, rosehips Thiamin (Vitamin B1) - pork, soybeans, peanuts Iron - liver, red meat, watermelon, spinach, asparagus Zinc - oysters, chickpeas, red meat, peanut butter, pumpkin seeds, cheddar Calcium - cheese, leafy greens (not spinach), canned salmon/sardines with bones Magnesium - almonds, cashews, soybeans God. You'd think I had too much time on my hands, or something. Yeah, like I'm gonna eat wheat germ oil... The rest of the stuff looks pretty good though. I had some almonds while I was working today, it felt nice and healthy. I actually do eat foods like those listed very regularly. It's not like I'm eating junk food. Well, okay, I did have some pork rinds over the weekend, but, dammit... |
