Daily Requirements

Is there a list anywhere that details the exact chemical requirements to sustain a healthy human body? In terms of vitamins,minerals,trace compounds, etc. Of course the amount will vary from person to person, but i just need the compounds and relative amounts.

Ah, so you're kidnapping a small girl and keeping her captive in a deep freeze, ah?

hmm thanks :)

i plan on creating a superfood.

Nice, like a blend of said foods?
I've tried the superfruit in the G3 drink, which was tastey, but you'd have to lay down a good chunk of coin to keep drinking it.

The vitamin system is a near-perfect approximation of what you need apart from hydrocarbons, water and salt.

Vegetables contain a good chunk of everything you need, which is generally described as vitamin B which is in fact a large number of different minerals that are found in large quantities in vegetables. Vitamin A, C and E are more difficult to get and Vitamin E can be produced in the body if you eat enough protein or you can eat fish and meat.

cheapest perfect diet = around... 320 grams of various staple vegetables, peas, corm, that's your vitamin B, 80 grams of carrot, 80 grams of fruit, a tin of tuna

Actually looking at this link it might be an idea to have 150 grams of nuts or oats aswell.

here's a list from wikipedia, good old wikipedia:

i often drink Greens+, it has a shit ton of all natural things in it, although the ingredients are listed, sadly i cannot seem to find the percent of vitamins and what not it contains.

FDA daily requirements are not accurate, and have evolved mostly to support corporate agriculture.  Not only are the serving sizes unrealistic, but the emphasis is on empty carbohydrates rather than good carbohydrates from vegetables and whole grains.

Look it up yourself

Create something that would remove feeling of hungriness and provide you with all nutrients you need. Could be in form of pill or in more traditional food resembling form. Mega profit and almost complete removal of weight problems. Too bad you'd prettymuch destroy whole food culture, but I'd say superfood like is worth it.

I hear the Army came up with this already but never officially distributed it.

No, what makes people fat is the fact that all the food that tastes good is unhealthy.

true, however, technically you wouldn't gain any weight as long as calories consumed <= calories expended. It's the recreational and social eating that gets most people.

Look motherfuckers, the secret is vegetable carbohydrates, nuts, whoel grains and fish protein.  Avoid pork, red meat, white bread, sugars, starches, oils, greasy foods, processed foods, trans fats, sugar substitutes, high fructose corn syrup, food coloring and artificial flavoring, and you'll be okay.
