Cool. Tell me what you mix. I want to see more full spectrum recipes (recipes with all nutrients but vit D coming from a wide variety of natural sources) on here. Also if you find a source for cheaper strawberry, raspberry or banana freeze dried powders…

I should have specified that I am taking the husk separately, along with my vitamins :)

Hola! "alphabet classic white" es unas vitaminas de Rusia. Puedes sustituir por otras vitaminas.

Just wondering why the last ingredient is at zero (Maximum Nutrition Powder), I guess I won't need to buy it?

Looks nice. The sulfur is probably not a problem since you are using a good amount of protein powder which usually contains sulfur even if its not stated. I hope the psyllium husk is simple to manage I hear that it can be tough.

Updated for you :)

I just wanted to provide you an update to the mix. Just received the last stuff and mixed it all in, blended it and it's delicious. A bit sweet, so I'll work on this a bit but besides from this it's really good. A big like cookie dough.

Thanks. I think amazon is a cheaper option for me, but I think I will try a hybrid recipe with some fruit powders mixed in.

Try using diet rite salt light. It tastes much better. Or check out my mix

14g of psyllium hust and 23ml of peanut oil per day.

I made a variation of this that's only $2/day. Search for "Simply 100%"!

North Bay Trading Co. http://www.northbaytrading.com/ Make sure to get "Freeze Dried". Air drying is not as healthy, supposedly.

This recipe could be dangerous... Try out my recipe called "Simply 100%" instead. It's super cheap.

thx dude u r so cool....!

Awesome! To add calories, I recommend you add more Masa Harina, protein, and canola oil. Make sure to add them proportionally to each other so that the relative amounts between those three ingredients stay the same!

also, u r gay

Mine is even cheaper and easier. It's only $2/day. Search for "Simply 100%"!

Wow, that's amazing. Getting almost all the nutrients from half the calories. I knew that basil was going to be a problem. My concern with the spices is that they may be wrong. The sample size of the USDA tests might be so small that we are getting compounding…

I completely forgot about this recipe. Did you ever try it?

I had completely forgotten about this recipe. Have you tried it?

Wow really good price, I'm going to make a 2500 calorie version

Do you have a link to your recipe?

Hi Sebastian, I received most of my stuff today but one thing is still missing. The missing part shall arrive tomorrow. Of course I couldn't wait and prepared two batches. One is only powder, the other one chills in the fridge for tomorrow morning. So…

clone - look under the "notes" tab

Have you tried it already? Any issues? With how much water do you mix it?

Indeed! This just demonstrates that the philosophy behind Soylent works. It's open source. It's community based. "Together we are stronger" and "share if you care" are very important quotes here. : ) As Rob Rhinehart put it since the beginning this is…

Those are great and bad news at the same time ! Time to work on the detail and check the whole recipe :-( Thanks for your involvement Synthank !

They are fast! I already have the nutritional details of all the bulkpowders components of Liquid Cake! And they really care for their costumers : ) I think it's a pretty good costumer service. cultofmonkey would you be kind enough to update the recipe…

Is that much Zinc a day bad for you?

Here's the attachment of the detailed nutritional value of unflavored whey:

Bad news : ( Here's the answer. I've asked for details regarding the rest of the bulkpowders components of this recipe. I'll post them here when they send it to me. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: bulkpowders.co.uk Subject: Level of nutritional…

Where are you buying the fruit from?

cultofmonkey may I suggest that you place this update on the notes of the recipe? (or something like it! evidently adapt to your taste, has you are the author of this awesome recipe). __________________________________________ Warning: vitamins (title)…

@DoctorDee: good suggestion! @TiRune: as DoctorDee said, if you have any additional information please post it here! @ariakus: that would be helpful! Thanks! Anyway I took the initiative to send an e-mail to Bulkpowders to confirm TiRune information.…

I bought 8(i think) different flavors of the proteins from Bulkpowders, if there is interest on it i can try to post full information on packages later tonight, or tomorrow night.

The Guest comments was my own thoe THe Website doesno longer allow me to delete the comments

Hey Stefan, habe mir schon gedacht, dass du irgendwie in diese Richtung unterwegs bist. Nun hatte ich mir gedacht, fragen kann man, denn so eine tolle Arbeit muss ja auch unterstützt werden. Dennoch bin ich gespannt auf deine Ergebnisse zum Nerdshake.…

I'm curious about this. just putting it out there.

Just blended my first batch to start things tomorrow. Seems like a very small amount of stuff to keep me full an entire day!

Both the name of the ingredient in the recipe and the amazon page are misleading. Amazon should not sell different formulations on the same page (ie powder vs pills, one ratio vs another). That name is used on this recipe not because that is exactly…

Sodium/Potassium balance seems to matter a great deal. Most people's regular-food diets are low in potassium (sources: whole grains, greens) and high in sodium (salt added to many refined foods and added in cooking.), making for a horrible balance. Cutting…

Thanks for your insightful input! ;-)

Cancer in 3... 2... 1... :P :P :P

Notes: The Reason why theres a maximium of 2 grams of sodium is due to the World Health Organisations Recommendations on sodium intake after the amount of evidence gathered on sodium levels and blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases ect. link to the…

I did a recipe completely removing the coconut flour and found the scratchiness is completely gone. some grittiness remains (probably the chia seeds, as there is no masa in this ketosis recipe). I found the the drop in protein (from coconut flour) required…

Hallo Vinzent, gern! Vielen Dank für das Angebot, etwas Hilfe schadet grundsätzlich nie. Für den Blog werde ich zwar vorerst keine benötigen, da ich idealerweise beruflich Web-&Mobile Developer / -Consultant bin, aber wir können ja trotzdem in Kontakt…

The 100 gm coconut flour AND the 50 gr masa, plus the chia seeds will make the thing quite gritty and dense. Consider reducing the coconut flour significantly, after all you have more than 200% of the required fiber. Also add a gram or two of potassium.

Thanks for your feedback, I don't think I would have been able to isolate my reflux issue to the MCT oil without it.

Scusa leggo adesso, la sto usando da quasi un mese, però solo per colazione pranzo e merenda, preferisco continuare a cenare all'italiana! :)

The whole flax seeds need to be ground. It's under the Notes section. They will pass through your system whole and undigested without you getting the nutrition. The reason he does it that way is because of oxidation but I use pre-ground flax because I…

I've seen that complaint several times. One user traced it to the MCT oil for him. Personally I had a bit of indigestion when I first started and I think it was due to the potassium citrate. I changed to a blend of citrate and potassium chloride which…

You may want to substitute ground flax seed meal for the whole flax seeds. It is easier to digest.

Calcium Calcul: *Google for : Calcium DRI recommended for 19-30 year old = 1000mg per day 1000mg * 15% = 150mg

Gunny, I can say that 28oz doesn't change the grittiness much but if left in the fridge overnight, it's a lot better. I hope this recipe works out for you, I still enjoy it.

Wouldn't it be more helpful and constructive, rather than simply telling us that the LiqCake recipe is "quite wrong", to actually post the correct values for the Bulkpowders Whey so that cultofmonkey or someone else can correct the mix?

Ik kan niet wachten! Wil dit graag proberen om in ieder geval alles behalve m'n avondmaal te vervangen.

A questions about the Cal-Mag (+ Vit. D): In the recipe it gives a ratio of 1000mg/500mg whereas the Amazon link takes you to a product with a 1:1 ratio. Looking at the 6g asked for in the recipe, it seems there is 400mg of each, so I imagine it's just…

I may take out the soy lecithin and replace it with 2 or 3 banana's when I blend it in the morning. Banana's are excellent when it comes to "thickening" a mixture.

Your specs on the whey protein are quite wrong. Bulkpowders.com does not list all the vitamins and minerals that are in whey powder on their nutrition label. I just called them and they are not obliged to do so until december 2014 by european law. Theres…

het is zoals baard al zegt inderdaad belangrijk dat je GOED blend. Zelf begin ik tegenwoodig met 700ml water. Dan krijg je de consistentie van een milkshake. Ik zelf heb de zanderige smaak nog niet echt ervaren moet ik zeggen. (en ik gooi er altijd een…

Hey gueste, vielen herzlichen Dank für deine überaus schnelle Antwort. Wenn du Unterstützung für den Aufbau deines Blog benötigst, könnte ich gerne helfen. Da ich nicht weiß wie technisch bewandert du bist. (Nicht negativ aufnehmen) Grüße, Vinzent

I am seriously considering this ketosis induction soylent. I worry about the taste - if I were to use a sugar-free Torani Syrup (with Splenda), would this mess up the recipe or the ketosis-induction in any way? Do you think it would add much flavor? Also…

There's not really a good way to do that with masa harina. Rice flour is a low-fiber alternative - you might check out my rice-based Clean Fuel recipe here: http://diy.soylent.me/recipes/clean-fuel-plain If you want to get rid of fiber, skip the psyllium…

Hey, thanks for the comment. Overall it's worked really well. My energy levels feel much more steady, and well-balanced throughout the day. But it's been a learning process. I think the most important factor related to maintaining performance at the…

i am just making my first batch right now. noticed that the potassium gluconate wasn't purchased so i made an order for it. will substitute with bananas until it arrives

Just ordered all ingredients -- so no feedback yet on how this is working. I'll be sure to about with details once I start consuming & tweaking!

Hi. Yeah, I mix the powders in one day bags, at the start of the week, and put the oil in little bottles that i buy from daiso (optional, you can just do it when you mix it all together, but i don't like measuring, so i get it out of the way at the start…

I would agree that the coconut flour causes a grittiness problem. I personally like the mouthfeel, but there's this throat thing that occurs after you swallow where something feels like it's stuck in your throat, and swallowing more water doesn't immediately…

Ohh I can't wait to see what it comes up with for my ingredients. We should probably have a way to limit certain ingredients like basil. Its great to include in the mix but I wouldn't want more than 30g of it in a 2000 calorie concoction. I think calories…

The program has no regard for where in the range it falls as long as it is within the range. Usually there is at least one nutrient that is at the bottom of the range and another that is the top of the range since the nutrient values tend to be the limiting…

Hallo vinz, laut Amazon trifft spätestens diesen Freitag die letzte Zutat bei mir ein, die mit der aktuellen Version noch dazugekommen ist (das 2. Protein-Produkt). Die aktuelle Version 1.0.6 möchte ich nun länger beibehalten und nur ändern, falls der…

NYCLifeHacker, I've been working on my own version of a triathlete fuel but it was based on the same source recipe as this one. I was having some bad side effects from the high iron levels(or at least that's what I'm attributing to it). What's your…

Tim, I've been working on my own version of a triathlete fuel but it was based on the same source recipe as this one. I was having some bad side effects from the high iron levels(or at least that's what I'm attributing to it). What's your experience…

Hey gueste, erstmal sehr tolles Rezept, welches du uns hier präsentiert hast! Ich werde die Zutaten die Tage relativ günstig bestellen, da es eine Sammelbestellung ist. Ohnehin ist der Preis mehr als zufrieden stellend. Ab wann wirst du erste Ergebnisse…

Hey Stefan, This looks much healthier now. It's a pity that it wasn't available a week ago. So I had to come up with my own version, based on Schmoylent which is known to taste like the original Soylent. I should receive my stuff tomorrow and I'm more…

Hi Hans, update on your Vitamin A inquiry: daily dose is now down to 105%, hope this will be a match for you. However, as you are already taking a Vitamin A derivate, make sure to consult your doctor to be on the safe side.

Dear FutureBSD, thank you very much for posting your concern. In general there are many benefits of Niacin for sports, bodybuilding and general exercise, coupled with the fact that Niacin is essential in ensuring proper concentration and focus as well…

The rice protein and oat flour already have more than enough iron, so it's better to avoid adding extra iron unless your nutritional needs are such that you need more. Too much is just as bad as not enough.

I use about twice as much water as powder, by volume. Same as Soylent - I just add enough water to a day's worth to fill up a 2-liter pitcher with the mix.

This is the real deal. It tastes how I have heard the official soylent being described except it has a lower carb footprint which is exactly what I needed given that I have type 2 diabetes. I commissioned Alex to put together for me. He sent me 4 different…

I started out with Quid's cheaperfood version and it contains no soy. Between that and Quid's comments regarding the lecithin as an emulsifier I'd say that it is not nutritionally significant and safe to swap out or omit. So really all you need is a food…

This is a common question, and one that is really a matter of personal preference. Many people use 4 blender bottles a day, but I like 2. I drink it about the consistency of pancake batter and I love it. Most people seem to like it much waterier, but…

I would imagine we could account for taste. Choose ingredients we like that fit a wide variety of categories (fruits, vegies, nuts, dairy) then plug those into the machine for the best out come. I am guessing that the program will not automatically try…

Agreed; it is a lot of blending and thanks for the tips on alternatives and the recipe. Since this was the one we had bought all the ingredients for, I wanted to see what I could do get this one to a place where it was inherently drinkable and this was…

Geen afwijkingen in mijn bloed volgens de dokter.

@eternity Das hast du richtig interpretiert. Du mixt alles zusammen, fügst Wasser hinzu und hast alles, was dein Körper pro Tag benötigt. Dabei liegt es ein wenig an dir, ob du es in einer Portion oder 3 konsumieren möchtest. Sicherlich empfiehlt es sich…

Hey man, as much as I like your recipe it definitely has too much Niacin in it. The recommendation of the DGE gives a completely different recommendation. If this gets adjusted it's a completely decent recipe. Btw the link to the DGE: http://www.dge.de/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=4&page=3…

The texture was a problem for me too. Try passing the flour through a fine mesh strainer first and blending with ice and water.

I posted these the other day... we thought it tasted horrible at first and then I did some experimenting and these are all very tasty (even the plain). **NOTE** My blender is a "standard" size blender so I had to divide the recipe into fourths and blend…

Because of the size of my blender, I cut the recipe here into quarters and make a quarter at a time. To reduce grittiness, I blend with 2 cups of water and 2 cups of ice per batch. For an entire days worth I use 8 cups of ice and 8 cups of water.

Hey gueste, ich bin komplett neu hier und beschäftige mich erst seit kurzem mit Soylent bzw. der ganzen Thematik. Verstehe ich das richtig, das man alle Zutaten aus der Liste zusammenmischt und dann eine Tagesdosis hat? Also in der 2ten Spalte steht ja…

Wow!, I didn't have to wait 5 weeks for the fishpond order, but it was quite a leadtime. I've since opened up an account with shipito. I managed to get 2 lots of GNC Mega Men for $30USD each, with free local shipping from amazon to my shipito address.…

@endtropy, do you still have the coconut flour lying around? If so, can you take a pinch of it and put it in your mouth and swallow it (don't dilute with water, maybe just a sip to moisten it). I just did this and found that it produced the scratchy/grainy,…

It looks like this uses the same organic coconut flour that is in the Ongoing Ketosis Ketofood recipe. I tasted a pinch of the coconut flour, and believe this is DEFINITELY what is causing the "graininess" or "scratchiness" people talk about. If you notice…
