Potassium : Sodium -- 3.6:1 [2:1-16:1]
Calcium : Phosphorous -- 1.26:1 [1.2:1-1.4:1]
Calcium : Magnesium -- 1.1:1 [1:1-2:1]
Magnesium : Iron -- 48:1 [>13:1]
Iron : Zinc -- 1.1:1 [0.5:1-2:1]
Zinc : Copper -- 12.7:1 [10:1-15:1]
Iron : Copper -- 13.4:1 [10:1-17:1]
n-6 : n-3 -- 1.2:1 [1:1-2.3:1]
n-6 %DailyCalories -- ~5.47%
Protein: Whey (Novus Life) and Soy (Trader Joe's) -- two separate sources for proteins, both relatively inexpensive, soy (especially) good source for various other nutrients
Orange OxiMega: Greens Mixture to supply small variety of phytonutrients, also provides fiber, vitamins B2/6 and C
Iodized Sea Salt: Sodium and Iodine (as well as Chlorine)
Potassium(s): Chloride provides Chlorine and excess Potassium; Citrate provides Potassium without increasing Chlorine levels
Fat(s): EVOO for n-3/6, vit E/K, and calories, MCT for calories, Coconut Oil for calories
Soy Lecithin: Emulsifier, n-6, Choline, Vit K
Sulfur Powder, Folate, and Choline Bitartate should be pretty explanatory
Psyllium Husk: Fiber, small Iron contribution
Vitamin D-3/K-2: Vit K boost (and it's in the preferred K-2 form), extra Vit D can't hurt either (Full Time Student and Employee doesn't give me much outside time)
Chia Seeds: Fiber, Iron, Calcium, and n-3 (primarily in the form of ALA)
Cal-Mag Citrate: Used to drive Calcium and Magnesium ratio closer to 1:1
Iron Supplement: Used to balance Iron:Zinc and Iron:Copper ratios
Zinc Tablets: Used to balance Iron:Zinc and Zinc:Copper ratios
EPA/DHA: Used to provide n-3 that is already in the EPA/DHA form rather than relying strictly on ALA conversion
