Bob,
The Molecular Multi does contain Zinc. I believe Dr. Sardi has done
his homework, although I suppose there are other opinions. Sardi writes
this about copper.
Copper
NOT PROVIDED IN THE MOLECULAR MULTI
Copper is a strong oxidant. It is required for connective tissue
(collagen) formation.
The installation of copper in place of lead plumbing and piping has
changed the whole approach to copper nutrition. Inorganically bound
copper in dietary supplements and drinking water it much more damaging
to the brain than bound copper in foods. The Alzheimer’s epidemic
coincides with installation of copper plumbing in developed but not
undeveloped countries. [Nutrients

So, will the suppliers of the vegetables grown in this manner supply a
pill in the package for the missing nutrients in their prodcuts?
It is not as easy as it sounds to find an acceptable supplement. The
Formula Inc "Molecular Multi" is far from complete. Where are the
calcium, copper, and vanadium? The body's regulatory system dumps
excess zinc and copper together (without discrimination). If copper
and zinc are not taken simultaneously, dumping the excess zinc will
cause a copper deficiency. Vanadium in trace amounts helps prevent
(and treat) adult onset diabetes. The "Molecular Multi" may not even
be "better than nothing".
So why aren't we in more trouble today with the lack of the nutrients
in farm produced vegetables? Because meats are rich in many of those
nutrients and most of us eat meat. Despite the fact that I hate the
thought of eating animals, I recognize that with today's marketplace
foods, I would become malnourished by not eating meat. Eating veal is
even more nutrient rich because nutrient absorption by the young
animals is far higher than older animals.

It's easy enough to take a good vitamin supplement like Fgrmulas

Good questions.
Lets hope vertical farming is well studied before it becomes
common place or it could become another agricultural folly.

One of the problems with agricultural vegetables today is
that they are devoid of the micronutrients that the human
body needs to be healthy. These include a lot of trace
minerals (boron, calcium, vanadium, iodine, zinc, copper,
magnesium ...) that are found in fresh soil; but for 100
years, these micronutrients have been farmed out (and not
replaced). Farmers only add N-P-K back to the soil because
they found that doing so would make green plants, but that
doesn't mean that the resulting plants are chemically
nutritious for humans. Historical farming was most
nutritious in flood plains because the flood silt would
restore the micronutrients to the soil.
Plants cannot absorb these micronutrients as oxides or
sulphates directly - they must be broken down by consumption
in bacteria within the soil and chemically converted to metal
chelates in the bacterial deficant before the plants can
absorb them.
So, how in a vertical farm are the core nutrients and
micronutrients supplied to the plant in a way that the plant
can absorb them? Are they growing the bacteria in a vat from
which they extract the chelate-rich water (absorb-able
nutrients) for spraying on the plant roots? Are the
resulting plants nutritious?
