As for crazy high doses of FG, I would not recommend 10g of FG in one day. It just seems unnecessary and from my experience, quite likely to cause digestive distress. When I do use it, I will take a 500mg or at most 1g, at the very most twice in a day. A day of more than 2g usually leads to bowel unhappiness for me. Kind of like it helps to a point, then pushes things over the edge.
It does have a great degree of folate and fiber, which most people are unaccustomed to even though it is technically better for them.
And by boiling and discarding the solids, all that folate and fiber is gone. So OSB wouldn't have been likely to experience any distress from that if he even actually ever did it.
Lots of other nutrients are eliminated that way as well. The metals remain. The smaller molecules and single elements remain. But all the larger molecules are eliminated in the disposal of the solids.
And the boiling itself could reduce some of the smaller molecules through damage, so maybe 5-10% loss there is quite likely.
The only things left unchanged are any single elements, or very basic compounds like salts, which include the metals.
