There is really only three ways to do an all natural recipe while still adding nutrients. Two if you are picky about Fermaid O.
1. Boiled yeast for nutrients.
2. Fermaid O.
3. Add fruit. Traditional mead is out with this option.
In my post All Natural BOMM, I have some calculated values for what different fruits add as far as nutrients. Check that out as a starting point.
Yeast will be important here. You definitely don't want a nutrient hog and you better have a solid pitch rate to avoid problems.
Better brewing through science!
