hi guys i recently had a question what

multivitamins and minerals do i need on

a ketogenic diet

well the first thing you need to do and

a lot of people

will use vitamins as a crutch because

they don’t they don’t want to consume

the amount of vegetables that they

really need you really need to do that

because

we want to get as many vitamins and

minerals from the

vegetables as possible seven to ten cups

not just for the vitamins minerals but

to flush out the fat

so we need that those greens those

healthy

vegetables okay however when you’re

switching from

sugar burning to fat burning you’re when

you’re adapting you need

certain nutrients you need more of

certain nutrients you definitely need

more

b vitamins vitamin b6 b5 b1 and b12

i recommend getting these in nutritional

yeast you can get in a powder

i have nutritional yeast in a tablet

form to make it easy to consume

this is a non-fortified when you consume

nutritional yeast

you don’t want to fortify it enrich it

with synthetic vitamins

and i also added some natural b12 you

also need minerals specifically

potassium magnesium and sodium

when you’re on a low carb diet you need

more

salt so consume about one teaspoon of

salt

if you’re on a high carbohydrate diet

only have about a quarter teaspoon of

salt

but we do need a lot of potassium we

need a good amount of magnesium

i use the electrolyte powder because it

has a thousand milligrams of potassium

citrate

has a good amount of magnesium and has a

little bit of sodium so you may need to

enhance the sodium because this does not

have a lot of sodium

but this is cool because it doesn’t have

any maltodextrin it doesn’t have any

sugar and it has the trace minerals in

it as well

you also need vitamin d3 you can get

this from sunlight or

fish oils and that way you can kill two

birds with one stone you can get your

omega-3

so if you had a high quality cod liver

oil you can get d3

and omega-3 okay and then you have the

trace minerals which are those minerals

that are needed in much smaller amounts

it’s hard to find that in the diet and

it can really help you

so an example would be like chromium

iodine selenium

so again the goal is to try to get as

much of the vitamins and minerals

from the food but i also recommend

enhancing it

with the b vitamins minerals d3 omega-3

and trace minerals
