  Thinking of food only on its nutritional aspects is reductive The comment is literally regarding its nutritional aspect. "One of the most complete nutritional sources".

  > Thinking of food only on its nutritional aspects is reductive A reductive approach seems to be the problem of artificial meat, in the first place. > From a health point of view, fiber is a necessity If there is a healthy microbiome to digest the fiber, you may want to feed that microbiome with fiber so it stays alive, and even improve the population that way. And I see that fiber can mitigate blood sugar spikes. However, fiber also takes up valuable minerals, prohibiting their uptake. I do not think that the situation is as clear cut as you present it.

    Fiber is essential fuel for all kinds of microbes that produce immune-modulating molecules and neurotransmitter precursors for us. >However, fiber also takes up valuable minerals, prohibiting their uptake. I do not think that the situation is as clear cut as you present it. If this were actually a concern, it would be beneficial to extract all nutrients from whole foods and consume them as a pill (vitamin) instead of eating our nutrition. This has not borne out in extensive research despite billions of dollars invested into developing and marketing nutrient supplements.
