  • See I wouldn't eat that example. Low in protein and veg...the food pyramid emphasises margarine, wheat etc...

    But your question is a great one I think! Would be nice to see it written out.

    I have problems hitting potassium most days, fiber is ok. Still not dead though 😛

  • Same. Taking breakfast as an example:

    1/4 cup orange juice (FG)
    1 cup fortified wheat cereal with raisins (BCG)
    1 slice mixed grain toast (BCG)
    1 tsp margarine (FSG)
    1 tbsp jelly (FSG)
    1 cup skim milk (DG)

    I don't drink juice.
    I only have cereal in winter when hot porridge is appealing.
    We don't have a toaster at work and I rarely eat toast at home.
    I don't eat margarine
    Dafuq is jelly?
    I use green cap milk in instant coffee and lattes.

    My 'normal' breakfast is one of the egg pots from Tossed or a salmon and cream cheese bagel, a milky coffee of some sort. Sometimes if I'm hungry from training I'll add a yoghurt or another milky drink like iced coffee or one of those ForGoodnessShakes Recovery drinks.

    I've read the RDAs so many times and still have no idea what they are or what I would eat to meet the targets. I assume my own cravings will sort most of that out - the body has a great way of maintaining homeostasis, which I think, is the main ingredient in homeopathy cures...
