That's ludicrous.
The "nutritional content" is the part of the food that your body can make use of.
Mostly carbs, proteins, etc.
The trace minerals are essential, but hardly central.
Even if the definition of 'nutrition' is just those trace minerals (because somehow all the carbs, proteins, and everything else are 'free'), the article grossly exaggerates.
And given the whole shtick of this blog is 'using science to make sense of society', it's a poor show.
