Food Journal and Vitamin D Test Results

Today, I learned that my vitamin D levels went up! Yay! I had my blood tested back in July and the result was 41. I increased my vitamin D2 supplement intake so that not only would that number go up for my body and health, but also so I would have plenty in my breastmilk. This week my number was 80.8. Excellent - and especially happy to report that this was done using vitamin D2 (vegan), which is just as effective (clearly) as D3.

Here is today's food journal - Mostly Raw...
6 oz blueberries
1 kiwi

GoRaw Apple Granola with raw almond milk
Cheezy Kale chips

Veg burrito (flour tortilla, black beans, tomato salsa, guacamole, romaine lettuce - this meal was part cooked, part raw)

Strawberry Vanilla Milkshake (I blended 2 cups frozen strawberries with 2 cups raw almond milk, plus a squeeze of fresh lime juice and some vanilla extract - Greg and I split it)

Salad with green leaf lettuce, blueberries, carrots, and 4-Ingredient Magic Dressing (that recipe will be posted on the 20th so be sure to check back!)

Protein shake (2 scoops Sun Warrior Chocolate)
