Vit D by Dr Oz.
Min requirements supplements are 1000 units a day, can go up to 2000 units a day (depending on the person)
Can take up to a couple of months before seeing a difference.
Some of the symptoms of deficiency are : Fatigue, dementia, depression, thyroid problems
Best source is Supplements because of the sheer quantity of food to attain that amount.
So, I've just upped my vitamin load. FOR RECORDING PURPOSES.
Today: Walked 40 min at a good pace and did the Twister 4 minutes.
I went out for an amazing breakfast Friday am with the best coffee. Must've had 5 small cups with cream and sugar.
Saturday, out and about, I was so hungry because I missed lunch and caved in for a Caramilk! A huge one! lol
It was gone in a matter of minutes and was sOOO good. But I felt tired instantly, and all weekend I've been sleepy.
so I need to quantify my energy levels to see what's working for me in the matter of foods I eat and the alcohol I drink.
I now get the impression that as soon as I stray just a bit I pay for it in the manner of sluggishness.
But straying I will be doing, since this is Xmas time and 'eating, drinking and being merry' is unavoidable. At least, I plan to be very good in between the dinner parties.
Had some red meat today! yum!
