What are you made of?

[AnimeSpirit]

I found this on the Internet and confirmed it from a few science sites. Though this is a rough estimation based on averages, it really makes you think.

Water: 35 litres
Carbon: 20 kilograms
Ammonia: 4 litres
Lime: 1.5 kilograms
Phosphorus: 800 grams
Salt: 250 grams
Salt petre: 100 grams
Sulphur: 80 grams
Fluorine: 7.5 grams
Iron: 5 grams
Silicon: 3 grams
And trace amounts of fifteen other elements.

Have you figured out what this is a recipe for? You might be surprised to know that this is the chemical breakdown of your average adult human being. Even more surprising is that this list of elements can be purchased separately on less than $75 and depending on how you arrange them, they can form materials that cost much more.

How do you like that? People aren't all that expensive to produce.
