I’ve made an appointment with a health professional and I made up a list of all the vitamins and supplements I take so they have it in my file. \u00a0I’m narcissistic enough to think you might want to see it too \ud83d\ude42
\n….\u00a0ABOUT ME: \u00a0I eat a mostly unprocessed diet with the occasional can of soup, pasta, crackers or bread a couple of times a month. \u00a0Otherwise it\u2019s chicken, fish, some cheese, some tofu, veggies. \u00a0Potatoes are my main starch. I keep my fat grams about 40-60 grams a day, no butter, I use Earth Balance.
\nI eat no red meat, no pork since 2005.
\nI had my gall bladder out in 2004 after 2 bouts with gallstone pancreatitis.
\nI got another pancreatitis attack a year later and learned to change my diet, lower my fats, start cooking healthy and stop eating lumberjack quantities of fried meats and bread. My website at www.goddessgrub.com<\/a> is all about my healthy eating journey. \u00a0These are the supplements I take each day for past year or so:<\/p>\n
