Nutrition/vitamin power to mix with drinks?

So i have been drinking milkshake supplements for a while now, but i am becoming even worried about having them (i have a phobia of eating..strange right) its not my weight i worry about at all, its i just i panic if i eat food, so my doctor put me on fortisip meal replacements, yes i know its not a fix for the issue and i need help. The only thing i feel ’safe’ about having is cups of tea, is there any kind of powder or something you can mix in with drinks to get your nutrition? i will eat a bit, but i can only normally handle a bowl of cereal a day..but as i drink tea, im not sure if there is any kind of vitamin//nutrition poweder you can mix with it. Thanks.

I’ve had a deficiency for a long time now and I can never get a straight answer of how many mg of the supplement I should take. It says on the internet your supposed to have like 3000 mg a day but that is strange as how most bottles i find over the counter are only like 99 mg. So I just want to know how much of this 99 mg supplement Im supposed to take.

If I use my microwave for 10 mins a day, does that do any damage to ME? and how much nutrition, vitamins, flavenoids etc, does it take out of my broccolli and carrots if I microwave them for 10 mins?

I do like my broccolli and carrots, so any helpful information is much appreciated, many many thanks!

I noticed potassium supplements only have 99mg or 3% RDA. Is that worth taking? I have multiple digestive diseases and I cannot eat any vegetables and I can only eat a few fruits, but I don’t digest anything that well. My magnesium is low so I am taking a supplement for that, but I wonder if I have enough potassium since my diet is so poor. Is 99mg enough to make up for a deficiency?

2nd question (related)
I take 1/2 a multivitamin because that is all my stomach can handle, it doesn’t have potassium and is missing several other minerals. Is a multi-mineral a better idea?

I’ve suffered from fluctuating Potassium levels for several years, and was wondering if I could buy an over the counter Supplement to help keep it stable? Does anyone know where I could find such a thing?

Thanks!

I struggle with eating the wrong things. I am entirely too occupied with other things in my life to worry about what food I should and shouldn’t eat. I would LOVE it if there was a pill, or some type of "nutrition log" that I could just cut off a specific amount down it with some water, and get back to life. Of course I’d still have dinner with friends once in a while, but for the hundreds of meals I have alone each month, I’d love to simplify things.

Has anyone seen any product like this?

I have 2 toddlers and a husband and we started eating organic and whole foods about a year ago. This year we still seemed to get the stomach virus, but no one has thrown up at all. It just seems the stomach virus has been much much milder. Has anyone else experienced this? Could our healthy eating really be holding back the stomach virus?
