Wombaroo Powder - 04/19/11 08:46 PM
I was interested in the information found on Wombaroo's site (http://www.perfectpet.net/wombaroo/highprotein.htm)
I have been thinking this whole diet again and was really delving into some numbers. I was trying to compare the original Leadbeater's formula against some of the formulas we use today.
When looking at the Wombaroo I noticed the calcium and phosphorous was listed in grams. I thought "really?" as I had ever only seen them listed in milligrams for ANY food. So just to make sure it was NOT a typo (which we all do) I contacted them.
I was told the information on that page is full of typos and was sent a "correct" one, that had the same information on it. So I contacted the Wombaroo company in Australia.
They sent me a list as well that differed from the US one.
It is as follows: (listing nutrients we seem to talk about the most)
this is for 1 kilogram!
protein 520 grams
fat 120 grams
fiber 30 grams
vitamin C 200 milligrams
vitamin A 400 ug (micrograms)
vitamin D3 80 ug (micrograms)
vitamin K1 9 milligrams
vitamin E 70milligrams
vitamin B3 200 milligrams
vitamin B5 75 milligrams
vitamin B1 30 milligrams
vitamin B6 12 milligrams
Riboflavin 10 milligrams
vitamin B12 150 ug (micrograms)
folic acid 5 milligrams
calcium 13 grams
phosphorous 9 grams
potassium 4 grams
sodium 2 grams
magnesium 600 milligrams
iron 8 milligrams
zinc 25 milligrams
manganese 12 milligrams
copper 5 milligrams
selenium 150 ug (micrograms)
this is one reason why we need to never stop researching...
