I know, right? Cobalt? Jesus. If one defines deficiency as doing better if you get more, I tend to do better if I somehow supplement thianine, magnesium, potassium, and folate, as well as vitamins D and K.
Most of the trace elements, you have to be careful of getting too much and also the way they are bound. ie, eating an iron nail is not going to be that good for you or eating a piece of sodium could be really bad. The other things may be flavinoids, but there are so many flavinoids that eating live food is probably going to be better.
I'd like to see the list of special nutrients.
The author proposes a class of “longevity vitamins.” The evidence he presents is specifically for Vitamin A, Vitamin B1 (Thianine), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Biotin (Vitamin B7), Vitamin C, Choline, Vitamin E, Folic Acid (Vitamin B9), Niacin (Vitamin B3), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid), Calcium Chloride, Chromium, cobalt, copper, Iodine, Iron, Molybdenum, phosphorus, Potassium, Sodium, Sulfur, Zinc, Vitamin K, Selenium, Vitamin D, Omega-3 fatty acids, Magnesium, Taurine, ergothionein, pyrroloquinoline quinone, Quinine, Carotenoid, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Lycopene, Alpha carotene, Beta carotene, and Beta cryptoxanthin.
Woah, thanks. I have some reading to do.
Some of things though, you have to be very careful of. For instance, our bodies can't get rid of iron, so taking in too much can be very bad.

Nice, but I was thinking of this actually.
