Guest guest Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 I have DWIDP and noticed that there is no listing for Vitamin D, Chromium, and several other nutrients. Does anyone know of a software or listing for these nutrients in the same foods? I'm concerned because I work nights and am almost never outdoors during the day (vit. D). I don't drink much milk or dairy products and would like to eliminate them completely. I'd also like to make sure I'm getting some Chromium rich foods. Thanks, cronmouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Blood tests showed that I had a D deficiency last winter, & I've referred to that article numerous times. It's an excellent article. I too am an indoor worker, & osteoporosis runs in my family. In my opinion, it's easy to become D deficient when you can't ever get outside. When my D level improves, I sleep MUCH better.
