TLC · 04-28-2009, 08:02 AM

I am in need of some help....Funds are a little tight right now, so I went to the BalanceIT site and got a $20 diet made with human supplements. The calcium and zinc supplements they are saying to use are really hard to find and figure out. I am really getting a head ache from searching and trying to figure it all out.

These are the two items that are causing me so much stress:

1/4 tablet (0.38 gram) of Generic calcium carbonate tablet (1.5 gram tablet with 500 mg elemental calcium) per day.

1/8 tablet (0.03 gram) of Generic zinc gluconate tablet (250 mg tablet with 30 mg elemental zinc) per day

If anyone can help in any way I would really appreciate it. And if anyone has a basic (meat/veggies/carb) BUT balanced (with human supplements) recipe that they wouldn't mind sharing with me, please PM me.

Thanks so much!
