You're preaching to the choir. I totally agree with you that we must get all those nutrients you listed. I'm studying to be a nutritionist and know all about those, and I target to get all my nutrients every day. I just go for getting them from healthy, nutritious, alkaline sources. So, instead of getting my daily fat intake from eating a big steak marbled with a nice layer of fat, I get my fat from organic olive oil, avacado's, etc.

When you eat a piece of processed / non-organic vegetarian donut added with lemon juice for the sake of "alkalinity", does it contain the following nutrients in adequate level to sustain life ?

Ugh, heck no. Donuts are crap. What you're describing is the "Pudding Vegetarian" mentality, where people say they're eating healthy because they're vegetarian, but in reality all they eat all day is sugar, chocolate bars, candy, donuts, white bread with peanut butter, "veggie" pizza, drink beer, alcohol, pasta with 8 layers of cheese, etc.
Just because it doesn't have any meat in it, doesn't mean it's healthy.
Just because it is alkaline, doesn't mean it's healthy.
For it to qualify for my current diet it has to be HEALTHY and alkaline. Make sense?
