No it doesn't.

 

es·sen·tial  

/iˈsenSHəl/ 

 

Adjective
Absolutely necessary; extremely important

In this context, essential would imply that we essentially need that specific substance. That isn't true at all. Not.At.All.

I can go and lick my toilet bowl, because there are some "essentials" mixed in with the layers of dust and fat and what ever else. But that argument would be as poor as yours.
