Even though Nora has successfully weaned down to the less restrictive Modified Atkins Diet, she still takes a daily vitamin and calcium supplement: 1/4 of an adult Centrum and 500 mg of calcium citrate daily.
For the last six months or so, I’ve been using a simplified, modified version of Christy’s B^3 recipe.
- 2 adult Centrum
- 16 capsules of Solaray calcium citrate (each capsule is 250 mg)
- 40 g of butter
- 80 g of Adam’s peanut butter
I grind the multivitamin with a mortar and pestle, break open the calcium citrate capsules, and mix it all in with the butter and peanut butter mixture. I warm it slightly then pour it into 8 small silicone cups and put them in the fridge to solidify. Each cup then has approximately 1/4 of a multivitamin and 500 mg of calcium citrate, along with 10 g of peanut butter and 5 g of butter. The vitamin is bitter and the calcium citrate is chalky, but the peanut butter seems to do a good job of masking it.
