This is part of my extended video series on the reductionist trap. See, for example, Reductionism and the Deficiency Mentality (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/reduc...). Previous videos that touch on the topic include on Industry Response to Plants Not Pills (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/indus...) and Is the Fiber Theory Wrong?
