cobalt does not seem to have measurable, known requirements outside of b12 consumption, and i am far exceeding the requirements for both natural and synthetic b12 in my diet. while some as of yet unknown and no doubt very small amount of elemental cobalt may be essential to human health, the safest way to get that appears to be to overshoot b12. trying to seek out and incorporate elemental cobalt in your diet appears more likely to end up tricking your body into substituting it for another element than anything else, and that may not be good for your health (it could potentially cause cancer). if you come face to face with cobalt sprinkles, you should probably pass on it.

nickel appears to be a preferred transition metal amongst certain species of plants, but humans would only appear to use nickel in place of other transition metals. that is, while there doesn't seem to be a known chemical process that humans explicitly require nickel, and only nickel, for, it is the case that humans can utilize nickel as a general transition metal, in a number of known reactions. that said, ensuring a minimal amount in the diet is likely prudent, given how readily it is substituted. the consensus appears to be that the essentiality of nickel is likely to be eventually established, even if it remains elusive at this time.

the following two studies provide for minimal and maximal lower and upper bounds: 

however, i'm going to be using the following report as a more targeted measure:
 
requirements: 100 µg rdi. 100% /meal.
upper limit: 600 µg/day, 600% the rdi.

data from the usda except where noted:

yeast from alternative label:

flax:

water - 7.2*.85 = 6.12  µg
=============
guava -  ?
banana  - 1000*.04*.118 = 4.72 µg
strawberry  - 1000*.043*.1 = 4.3 µg
avocado  -  1000*.34*.15 = 51 µg
kiwi  -   ?
soy -  1000*10*.006*1.6 = 96 µg
ice cream -  ~0
yogurt - ~0
yeast - 41*3/20 = 6.15 µg
vector cereal - 1000*((.166 + .096)/2)*.015 = 1.965 µg
all bran cereal - 1000*.193*.045 = 8.685 µg
flax - 1000*17*.007 = 119 µg
algal oil - ? 
===============
(6.12 + 4.72 + 4.3 + 51 + 96 + 6.15 + 1.965 + 8.685 + 119)/100 = 298%

disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.

note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.

diet options:

daily:

 2 ) pasta salad bowl:
- one tbsp of imitation bacon bits (isoflavones, maybe)
- olives?
- red clover (if locatable or foragable, for phytoestrogens)
- alfafa?
- rice bran is similar to sunflower in b5, but lower in omega-6 and lower in choline. also, less e. it would be better if i find myself strictly concerned about b5, but in the pasta bowl. this seems unlikely.
- dried whey is a little lower in both b5 & higher in choline, but also has a little b12 & has almost no fat. it's almost like the missing part of the yeast. i'm having trouble finding it though and don't think the isolate available at bulk barn is comparable. it seems to be largely seen as a waste product in yogurt production. it may be broadly useful across plates.
- broccoli?

3) eggs:
- salami (45 g) (25% b1, 12% b3, 5% b5, 11.5% b6, 0% b9, 20% b12)
- rice (100 g) (60% b1, 35% b3, 4% b5, 6% b6, 69% b9)

need:

==========

remaining items to enter or investigate:

15 amino acids: <----for sure, eventually
1) histidine, 2) isoleucine, 3) leucine, 4) lysine, 5) methionine, 6) phenylalanine, 7) threonine, 8) tryptophan
9) valine, 10) arginine, 11) cysteine, 12) glycine, 13) glutamine, 14) proline, 15) tyrosine
+ measure 6 non-essential

carotenoids (not including pro-vitamin a): <---maybe
1) lutein, 2) zeaxanthin, 3) lycopene, 4) phytofluene, 5) phytoene, 6) astaxanthin, 7) capsanthin, 8) canthaxanthin, 9) cryptoxanthin

chlorophyll:
1) chlorophyll a
2) chlorophyll b

other molecules required for proper metabolic functions:
5) ergothioneine  (cannot synthesize)   
6) pqq - .2 mg, or 400 ng, but can't find good sources
7) queuine - no rdi determined. milk, whole wheat, tomatoes.
10) creatine? (avoidance? creatine increases muscle mass (which is bad.) but also improves brain function (which is good). careful.) 
11) ribose
12) "nucleic acids"?
13) don't forget about heme
14) carnosine
15) allicin

glucose:
i'm more concerned about diabetes than weight gain, so...
the glycemic index is:
running total...

fiber:
i don't need many different types, i just need some. i'm not worrying about this.

& water

also, let's measure flavonoids:

anthocyanidins:
1) pelargonidin, 2) delphinidin, 3) cyanidin, 4) malvinidin, 5) peonidin, 6) petunidin, 7) rosinidin

flavonols:
1) isorhamnetin, 2) kaempferol , 3) myricetin, 4) quercetin  [rutin, troxerutin], 5) fisetin, 6) kaempferide

flavones:
1) luteolin, 2) apigenin, 3) techtochrysin, 4) baicalein (to avoid!), 5) norwogonin, 6) wogonin, 7) nobiletin

flavanones:
1) eriodictyol, 2) hesperetin, 3) naringenin, 4) hesperidin, 5) isosakuranetin, 6) pinocembrin, 7) sterubin

isoflavones:
1) daidzein, 2) genistein, 3) glycitein, 4) biochanin A, 5) formononetin

i should try to measure some further phytoestrogens:
1) matairesinol, 2) secoisolariciresinol, 3) pinoresinol, 4) lariciresinol, 5) coumestrol

& finally, let's also measure:
1) saponins, 2) ursolic acid (& precursors), 3) cafestol, 4) resveratrol, 5) ellagic acid, 6) coumarin, 7) tyrosol, 8) hydroxytyrosol, 9) oleocanthal, 10) oleuropein, 11) gingerol, 12) phytic acid
