micronutrient profile
The chart below shows the micronutrients provided by Bill’s diet as a proportion of the daily recommended intake (DRI) for each nutrient (including supplements).
supplements
The supplements listed below will provide Bill with the nutrients that he is not getting enough of until he is able to improve the nutrient density of his diet.
Most people do not meet the recommended intake vitamin D from their food so ensuring adequate sun exposure and vitamin D supplementation is important.
nutrient ratios
The graphs below show the key micronutrient ratios in your diet. The Nutrient Optimiser uses the micronutrient ratios as a safety check to make sure that you’re emphasising foods or meals that might worsen these micronutrient imbalances. For more details about micronutrient ratios check out article.
