with b3, the rdi changed from 20 mg to 16 mg per day so the data i had in the chart was largely from the previous rdi and the numbers are going to go up across the board. that will be balanced out by the new dv, which i'm boosting to 125% to compensate. that will, however, effect the 200%/meal upper intake level that i've set for fortified niacin to prevent flushes, which is based on 35 mg being a tad more than double the 16 mg target. to reiterate: your body is greedy with niacin and doesn't know how to stop, so you just absorb whatever you ingest, and almost as soon as you ingest it. then, you excrete 80+% of it the very next time you urinate, with only very small amounts going to the liver for redistribution (your liver being the socialist organ that it is). to be clear: 80+% of the niacin you consume is excreted within an hour of consuming it. so, if you take these supplements with 1000x the rdi or whatever, they actually don't do anything at all except put strain on your kidneys.
your body has to process most dietary niacin, though, so it doesn't get absorbed instantaneously - quickly, perhaps, but not immediately upon swallowing, the way that a niacin pill does, or the way that niacin fortified in pasta or cereals does. so, it's only the fortified sources that you need to be concerned about getting ingested too quickly and bursting your capillaries as they get uptaken (which is what a 'niacin flush' is) and the amount to be concerned about is 35 mg all at once - 219% of the rdi.
so, the new requirements - per meal - for niacin are greater than 125% and less than 200% from fortified sources.
here's the data...
banana - .785*2 = 1.57 mg
strawberry - .386*.75 = .2895 mg
avocado - 2.61 mg
kiwi - .341*.75 = 0.25575 mg
ice cream - 1.1*.116 = 0.1276 mg.
flax seed - 0.216 mg
=======
(1.57 + 0.2895 + 2.61 + 0.25575 + 0.1276 + 0.216)/16 =
5.06885/16 =
0.3168 = 31.68%---->31.5%
unlisted - 31.5%
soy - 10%
yeast - 43%
cereal - 36%
======================
t: 120.5%
n: 31.5%
f: 89%
while higher than the 115% previously constructed, this comes in a little lower than hoped for, due to the fact that most of this is unaltered. only the bananas and avocados are substantive sources, and they contributed all of the minor 5% hike.
the easiest way to resolve this is to move to 3g of yeast, rather than two. the table for b1 & b2 has been updated to reflect that. i will update the other values as i go
b1:
yeast: 103--->155 (+52)
meal 1 total: 162.5----->214.5 (+52)
grand total: 506.5-----> 558.5(+52)
b2:
yeast: 96----->144 (+48)
meal 1 total: 194---->242 (+48)
grand total: 585-----> 633 (+48)
so,
unlisted - 31.5%
soy - 10%
yeast - 65%
cereal - 36%
======================
t: 142.5%
n: 31.5%
f: 111%
in total, that's a 27.5% increase, just by boosting the yeast and readjusting the calculations.
red peppers - .979*2 = 1.958 mg
cheese - .059*.6 = 0.0354 mg
carrots - 0.983*1.1 = 1.0813 mg
hemp - .10*9.2 = 0.92 mg
==================
(1.958+0.0354+1.0813+0.92)/16 =
3.9947/16 =
0.24966875= 24.97%---->25%
unlisted - 25%
pasta - 66%
yeast - 43%
===============
t: 134%
n: 25%
f: 109%
again, this is a modest increase of 7%, but no adjustments are required.
eggs - 0.038*3 = 0.114 mg
cheese - 0.059*.3 = 0.0177 mg
===================
(.114 + .0177)/16 =
.1317/16 =
0.00823125 = 0.823 %--->1%
unlisted - 1 %
bread - 6.5%
yeast - 43%
==================
t: 50.5%
n: 1%
f: 49.5%
there is actually no change here, as the amount of niacin in these sources remains minimal. i will still need to seek out a source of niacin, likely in fake meat, even if i boost the yeast, in the end.
coffee:
.34*4 = 1.36 mg
1.36/16 = .085 = 8.5%
coffee - 8.5
soy - 4
=====================
12.5%
this is a minimal boost of a half a percent.
overall:
142.5 + 134 + 50.5 + 12.5 = 339.5%
so, i ended up with an extra 35% in the end.
while there are some concerns with high supplemental niacin intake, none of the fortified foods are at high enough levels to create issues. very, very high levels of niacin over a large amount of time - more than 6000% of the rdi - can cause liver damage, due to the small amount that is stored being proportional. again: your body is greedy with niacin and doesn't know when to stop; it absorbs it all at once and then flushes a large amount of it out, but if you take too much then you'll also store too much. so, you can poison yourself if you take huge doses. while this is evidence that you certainly need a sufficient amount of this chemical, it also suggests that you need to be careful with it. and, i'm nowhere near that concern at this time.
pseudo-b4 is next.
disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.
note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.

glucose:
i'm more concerned about diabetes than weight gain, so...
the glycemic index is:
running total...
fiber:
i don't need many different types, i just need some. i'm not worrying about this.
