I do agree that sugars and starches can be a problem for some people like me but I'd rather follow the GAPS diet which is really helping me with candida issues I've had for 9 years.

I eat navy beans, celery, carrots, onions, spinach, and kale for my fiber. I usually boil them with chicken or beef in a crockpot with some butter and it all tastes good.

If you are having serious candida problems look into the GAPS diet.

I take magnesium whenever I remember it.

When dinner is a pound of pork sausage or swiss cheese.

I lowered my blood pressure eating navy beans since they are one of the highest in potassium. They also taste great cooked in a crockpot with carrots, onions, celery, and butter.

I don't have a goal set but my main carbs are carrots and navy beans and I don't eat that many. I'm on the full GAPS diet and have never been on a ketogenic diet.

It's not enough arsenic to poison you outright or they'd take it off the shelf. It's probably in ppm(parts per million) but it can accumulate in the body and cause problems. Only about 1% of magnesium is in the blood so blood tests are not a good indication of total magnesium in the body.

I'd have to go with niacin(nicotinic acid) and pantethine(active b5). Niacin can cause flushing if you take too large a dose right off the bat and should be taken with food.

I've been taking doctor's best for a while now. I also had some that weren't rated so well that I'm trying to finish up. I also use magnesium oil on the skin since I've read that you absorb it better that way.

I try to eat less GMOs and more organic or just non-GMO.

fruits, veggies, low processed meat, fish, nuts, beans, fermented cod liver oil, a high quality probiotic, and maybe some vitamins and minerals.

pantethine and red yeast rice

Sure. I take Country Life Coenzyme B-Complex which is the highest rated at https://labdoor.com/rankings/b-complex. I also supplement niacin (nicotinic acid) 100 mg since B-Complexes usually use niacinamide. Niacin is hard on the stomach though so I take betaine with it and vitamin c and a full meal which helps decrease the…

Taking a b complex can help digestion. "Thiamine, or vitamin B-1, contributes to the production of hydrochloric acid within the stomach. Niacin, or vitamin B-3, is required for the secretion of bile, which is needed to digest fat. Pantothenic acid, or vitamin B-5, is needed to synthesize coenzyme-A and metabolize proteins,…

I don't think I want to do BPC either. Cream is all I need in coffee.

I thought it was the ratio of selenium to iodine that was important. I get my selenium from brazil nuts and iodine from seaweed.

Thanks for bumping. I'm trying to stick to the diet but I don't think I could handle the intro stage and steps. I'm hoping just the full diet and probiotics will help me clear up candida and strengthen my gut.

or you could chew them really good

I take all of the well known vitamins and a few minerals like zinc, potassium, manganese, magnesium, and chromium.

Proof that people need the full spectrum of vitamins and minerals not just a few choice supplements.

Cocoa or Cacao have fiber. I usually mix yogurt, chia seeds, stevia, and cocoa for a nice chocolate pudding.

Thanks. I'd rather take it and be safe than sorry.

But how do you know if you're deficient?

That's interesting. It must be an acquired taste.

I've also never seen natto. I guess K2 can be in other foods but in uncertain quantities like brie and gouda, some livers, and grassfed animal products.

A 1/2 cup of broccoli has a few percent RDA of most of your vitamins and minerals. nutritiondata.self.com/facts/vegetables-and-vegetable-products/2356/2

Oysters have a lot of zinc but are they that common in everyone's diets? I see the cheap ones in the stores but they are farmed and use cottonseed oil. I do occasionally buy olive oil ones from the health food store or online but it's easier to take a pill for zinc every day. I try to eat a lot of greens but 2 cups of…
