Part 25 of a series—things I've said here that seem worth repeating on their anniversaries, such as the following words from exactly one year ago.

"The human body requires chloride, chromium, fluoride, iodine, and molybdenum. Why, then, do virtually no food #NutritionLabels include chloride, chromium, fluoride, iodine, or molybdenum data? Breakdowns of soluble and insoluble fiber would seem very helpful too.

"I can find no credible source providing an answer. Why did those omissions apparently become standard policy in the United States and elsewhere? Perhaps I'm overlooking some rudimentary fact(s) about such things—? I wonder if any expert on the subject might notice this post.

"And I'll ask about particular essential fats and proteins another day, maybe."
