    Cellulose from wood is literally a dietary fibre. Just like that good healthy fibre you are getting from kale. Which is also mostly cellulose. There’s no difference for your body between kale and saw dust.

      I don’t think it’s fair to say kale and cellulose are basically the same.

      I’d much rather eat cellulose.

      Yup, actually cellulose in food is not a problem at all in my mind, and is probably actually improving the average Americans health if anything.

      Be careful now, say something like that and someone might start a weird fad diet

      Well there is right? Kale has other macro and micro nutrients, unlike you’re referring to the Fibre part only, then there would be no different right?

      What? Does sawdust have high levels of vitamins A, B6, C, K, folate, fiber, carotenoids and manganese? The last time i checked it doesn’t.
