Can’t eat this? Try this instead.

We are all different, and we all eat differently, which means some people may lack certain essential nutrients. An all-in-one supplement may have too little of a something and too much of another. Here’s a quick guide based on certain dietary restrictions, but it’s best to get a full blood panel to see where you are defficient.

Consume the following supplements/foods daily:

• Vegan Diet:                                                                                                                            1000 mcg Vitamin B12 dissolvable tablets in the form of hydroxocobalamin
• Gluten-Free Diet: 200 mg magnesium glycinate
• Dairy-Free Diet: 500 mg calcium and 1000-5000 IU Vitamin D3
• Nut-Free: sunflower seeds or a multivitamin
• Picky Eater Diet (one that doesn’t eat vegetables):                                                    beans, peanuts, whole grains, sunflower seeds, oranges, tomatoes, avocado, or 1000 mcg L-5 methyltethrahydrofolate, or Metafolin
• Fish-Free Diet: walnuts, flaxseed, hemp and chia seeds
