Why can't they just inject the nutrients in the grain, or whatever other foods? There is no difference between the nutrients synthetically made and naturally nade is there?

3.1 Chirality
Chirality is a property of Molecules who spatical arrangement of atoms leads to the symmetry; a mirror image of that molecule will be a different compounds.
This difference in three-dimensional structure leads to a new type of isomer called stereoisomer. Stereoisomers differ only in the spatical position of their groups.
A molecule with this property is said to be chiral.
Many natural substances are chiral and this is a key factor in their reactivity, particularly with amino acids and enzynes, saccharides, DNA and RNA in mammalian systems.
Chiral molecules are also produced by plants and these substance have a variety of properties including those which behave as defensive substance or attractive substance.
Chiral molecules are also responsible for the chemicals that trigger odor responces in humans when released into the air from plants and animals.
Racemic Mixture
A special case arises when there are equal mixture of two enantiomers. If the specific rotation of this mixture is 0 and the mixture is called in racemic mixture; this implies that the specific rotation of the enantiomers mixtures are additive

Mercury Poisoning: How Was My Child Poisoned?
Sources
The sources of mercury poisoning in your child, in likely order of impact, include:
1. Thimerosal From Vaccines. Thimerosal is 49.6% ethylmercury by weight. It is highly neurotoxic. Before 1986, children received a total maximum dose of ethylmercury of 100 micrograms in the first two years of life. By 1991, this dose was up to 246 micrograms in the first two years of life, an increase of 2.5 times or 147%. The primary drivers of the increased dosing were the introduction of the Hepatitis B vaccine (Hep B) and the Haemophilus Influenzae Type B vaccine (Hib), both containing Thimerosal. This increased dose was largely maintained until 2001, when the FDA recommended that vaccine makers remove Thimerosal because of its potential neurotoxicity. The use of Thimerosal-containing vaccines continued well into 2003 as inventories already in the supply chain were worked down.
