"It's like people adding minerals back to water that was filtered to remove everything."

This is a great comparison - I'd much rather they filter out the minerals and the shit and then put the minerals back than have me drink the water with shit still in it.

Sure, but you have to admit that it's still impossible to know if the final product is equally the same as the unadulterated version right?

If it was possible to have a perfect food (or drink) that was totally identical to the theoretically perfect natural version then everyone would want that.

Currently, we have to pick between mostly-working set of alternatives: more natural, more risk or less natural, less risks.

		Sure, I know for a fact that the final product isn't the same - this is a good thing. I think you're falling for the fallacy that natural is better. At a most basic level, our ancestors proved hundreds of thousands if not millions of years ago that this is false - natural meat is uncooked meat, but both the bio-availability of the protein and the safety of the food increases with cooking.
