Skepticallytrying Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Day 15.... just now realizing my supplement ingredients!!!! Embarrassing! Hello everyone! I feel stupid for admitting this, but as I was reading through fellow W30er's postings, I stumbled across one where our beloved 'Grumpy' Moderator, reiterated that Glycerin is is a sugar alcohol & should be avoided. Why the heck I didn't double check my supplements before this, I'll never know! But, my vitamin D supplement has glycerin! Honestly, I've only taken it a total of 5 - 7 days since I started my W30; part of my W30 challenge is to try to take supplements that may help me, as that's been a struggle for me. (in addition to minimizing my coffee intake, etc.). So, in a way, my flakiness in taking supplements may have helped me here! So, my question is: can I just add 7 extra days in added sugars avoidance to my W30? And during my reintroduction phase, focus on adding either dairy, legumes, or grains first? Or should I just add an extra 7 clean days, where I avoid everything, as all of those foods have natural sugars (lactose, glucose, etc)? Any thoughts would be helpful! Thanks!

missmary Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 We don't typically require a restart for accidental sugar ingestion--sugar isn't one of the gut disruptors that require 30 days to heal--so I would just put the supplement away until after your whole30. FWIW, I have found a vitamin d supplment that has only olive oil, so it's worth searching for a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
