Again from the USDA database, here's a summary report of the individual nutrients in this diet. I've added the RDI values for comparison.
If you'd like the Excel spreadsheet which shows the breakdown by food group (game, fish, nuts, veg, fruit), please email me.
A courier font will line up the columns.
