Another example of magical thinking;
> Nitrates are also used as fertilizers in agriculture. Now ask yourself, is that something you really want to be eating?
Water is used to irrigate in agriculture. Are you sure you want to drink that?

Dihydrogen monoxide can be dangerous depending on the quantity and how it is acquired and imbibed. Don't get it in your lungs.
But it's interesting there is so much mythology in there.
Just because bees create honey, it's still just sugar by a different name. Bees aren't magical fairy's.
And similarly Preservatives, Toxins, nitrosamines , anti-biotics (Irrelevant to personal heath from eating) are not relevant.
Even nutrition is totally irrelevant except in small cases. Our issue is eating to many harmfully foods like sugar and highly processed flour. It's not lack of nutrients in the 1st world.
