So.. I have adopted a lifestyle close to what some call the paleo diet. I eat meat, fish, veggies (all kinds), and minimal fruit (1-2 servings a day) but unlike the fanatics, I also include dairy and occasionally rice into my diet. Breakfast could mean a blueberry, spinach, coconut, protein shake; or bacon, eggs and carrot sticks. Lunch and snacks are just about always mostly veggies and whatever meat I have around. Supper is normally comprised of two-three veggies and a meat. I don't eat green beans or peas often, but lots of leafy veggies, turnip greens, broccoli, cauliflower.. etc. Our meat is 90% grass fed and organic. I will make a grain free granola (pureed walnuts, macadamia nuts roasted with coconut oil, almonds and honey) once in a while and have it with greek yogurt and some berries..
SOooo... now to my question(s), IF I were to take supplements, what would be suggested? I try to eat salmon/tuna twice a week, but don't always.. so I know a fish oil supplement would be good.. but don't handle swallowing pills well - and some of those jokers are huge! So I thought about krill oil.. any thoughts?
I would like to find a good overall vitamin/mineral supplement, but again, don't really know what would be the best one. Thoughts there?
I have taken ALA supplements with some good results in energy, but if I were to include these others.. when would I take them for the best effect? What if I included B-12? Would you take the B12 and ALA at the same time, or create a regimen of supplements throughout the day?
Thoughts?
