Supplement Score

I went to my local health food store today and picked up some supplements that I will be using on my juicefeast. The only thing I haven't picked up yet is spirulina and I held off because I got a raw superfood powder and wasn't sure if I needed both? I think I will pick up the spirulina now though after doing some more reading. Here's what I got:

1. Living Harvest Organic Hemp Oil 16.9 FL OZ $16.65
2. Bee Pollen - C.C. Pollen Co High Desert Brand 0.33lb $5.28
3. MSM Powder 1lb (126 tsp or 42tbs) $19.19
4. Garden of Life: Perfect Food RAW: RAW Organic Green Super Food 30 servings $36.15
5. Organic Kelp Granules (from my native Maine Coast) 1.5oz $3.49

Total Spent: $80.76

And get this, food stamps covered it!! Of course, I still have to budget out the rest of my grocery money because we really can barely afford groceries...In case you're wondering, I am highly educated and I was respectfully employed, but my daughter had a condition requiring heart surgery which went undiagnosed for 9 months. They did surgery the day they diagnosed her and we had known that she wasn't "right" for the first 9 months of her life. I quit my job to be home with her and I am NOT ashamed to be getting State Aid for now. We have a plan. For more about my family, visit my other blog.
