I have been using this recipe for almost 4 weeks, and almost 4 kg down (not only Soylent, but most of it). But i am wondering if it would be possible to go "more keto" on it. I seen in some website (removed link since my previous post was "moderated"/not…

Hey Datsagrindle, I'm thinking about trying out your soylent, cheers for the recipe. Do you make up the 100% all at once? Do you just mix it with water to down it? Does the oil make it go off quicker? How do you store it?
vwbugg - Jun 23, 2014 6:29am
As that is 100 % Soybean oil and that is what is used in the recipe it will not affect it at all. It will however affect your bottom line as that would be a very expensive soybean oil to get. Go to your local store to get soybean oil (ie: generic vegtable…

The Zoye Premium Low Saturated Fat Vegetable Oil is in fact soy bean oil. Check the product details.
Drackir - Jun 23, 2014 5:02am
Hey, I noticed you changed the recipe and no longer have psyllium husk and peanut oil in the mix. I am still using up my supply of both and didn't save a copy so I was wondering if you could let me know how much psyllium husk and how much peanut oil was…

Great point. Plus, hemachromatosis (overabsorption of dietary iron) carriers often don't know that they are carriers. The liver is the first place iron is stored, and excess iron can really damage your liver, then pancreas and heart. However, this recipe…

I'm building upon what lonewheel started and trying to find a way to have this recipe meet the goals of providing the right mix of nutrients while keeping protein much higher to help those that are trying to build more muscle. I'm struggling to keep the…
Kirractavas - Jun 22, 2014 11:54pm
Great recipe - High protein is important to me and so far it tastes good. This is my first time with soylent so if you've got any tips I'd love them, but so far this is working out quite well.
Synthank - Jun 22, 2014 10:10pm
This has happened to me! : ( But amazon was awesome. They accepted a return : )
Thisguy - Jun 22, 2014 9:17pm
Just wondering. When you click the buy from Amazon button, instead of soy bean oil being in your check out it has Zoye Premium Low Saturated Fat Vegetable Oil. Is this intended, and if not, how does it affect the recipes?
gueste - Jun 22, 2014 8:21pm
You can also click on the components which will trigger a popup-box with all the nutrients as list ;-)

The biggest Vitamin A share of this recipe comes from the protein product which in fact also contains essential vitamins and amino acids - you can find the complete nutrition here: http://www.nutrinax.de/products/Proteine/XLarge-Nutrition-Mega-Protein-90-3000g.html…

The program is really basic, it just interfaces a database of foods with nutrient values to a linear programming solver http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming Of course the program does not have a sense of taste, so there would need to be a…
TiRune@gmail.com - Jun 22, 2014 4:46pm
Heb alle informatie gegoogled en heel wat onderzoek gedaan naar de rol van zwavel in het lichaam. Blijkt idd niet per se nodig te zijn om MSM toe te voegen. Heb het nu weggehaald. Bedankt voor de info!
MedMan - Jun 22, 2014 4:08pm
Is there a recommended alternative to soy lecithin? From my understanding it is a highly processed product with potential hormonal side-effects. This does seem like something I'd desire in a "superfood" diet. Thanks for any help
Hans - Jun 22, 2014 11:57am
Nevermind i found out that i can scroll the components to the right and see the ingredients.
Hans - Jun 22, 2014 11:51am
Where does the additional amount of Vitamin A come from? I'm taking a Vitamin A derivate for medical reasons right now and cannot intake another 245% RDI in addition to that so i'd have to adjust the source component. Can someone tell me where it's from?
datsagrindle - Jun 22, 2014 10:22am
Thanks for that. Had to order some more vitamins, so i got some potassium with the order. Just hope it won't be too salty tasting, I didn't want the sharp taste of potassium citrate, and i am too cheap to do a mix of both before i know if it tastes bad…
vwbugg - Jun 22, 2014 8:45am
There are some that cook it. Might i recommend drinking everything but the Masa. Such as in this recipe http://diy.soylent.me/recipes/soylent-red-tasty-variant-to-people-chow-301-tortilla-perfection-please-read-the-notes-for-preparation-instructions…
vwbugg - Jun 22, 2014 7:25am
Thanks for finding that. A couple of these comments "awaiting moderation" are asking about this paticular whey protein. Looking at their site, ingredients, and prices something seemed fishy to me any way. Only $68 for 10 pounds? that was a flag to me.…
tojomo - Jun 22, 2014 7:19am
Absolutely. My original version of this was based on using powdered ingredients. That would alleviate the need to worry about seasons/localities so much. I ordered the powdered fruits but they haven't come yet. Actually, I realized I used powdered spinach…
vwbugg - Jun 22, 2014 7:04am
Why are there so many comments "awaiting moderation"? Some from a month ago and even 6 months ago. How do we fix it?

QuidNYC says in one of the first comments (at the very very bottom of this discussion) why the vitamin info differs from the labels.

If you want we can make an analysis. Which ingredient would you like to know if its stating the right nutrtition content?
Richie Steigerwald - Jun 21, 2014 9:34pm
What you mentioned in the notes is exactly why I've been hesitant to try soylent. I think this is better on principle and I look forward to trying it, at the same time, I think it would be great to come up with an array of these that use different foods…
vwbugg - Jun 21, 2014 8:11pm
My posts about Walmart's GreatValue "Corn Tortilla Mix - Instant Corn Masa Flour" have long been pushed off the end of this page. I have found theirs to be the least gritty of all that i tried.
vwbugg - Jun 21, 2014 8:09pm
Many of us use a "Blender Bottle" which is 28 ounces. I mix any where from 16 to 24 ounces of water depending on my preference at the moment. I think the average is 16 to 20 for most people. Also account for ice if desired. Just experiment and see…
malove2play - Jun 21, 2014 6:50pm
Thoughts: you don't actually need the sulfur powder. Whey Protein contains the amino acids cystine and methionine which together are sulfur. I would tweak your oils a little bit. Right now your Omega 6:3 ratio is about 10:1, and most experts reccomend…
Joy - Jun 21, 2014 4:30pm
Just curious why you decided to go with the multivitamin without added iron?
sharcy - Jun 21, 2014 4:09pm
ehm, das ist doch schon von Februar. Außerdem hat er es selbst als "nicht befriedigend" bezeichnet und schon lange nicht mehr verwendet, also auch nicht weiter entwickelt. Da finde ich Deinen Ansatz in a2 schon vielversprechender muss ich sagen.

cultofmonkey - Jun 21, 2014 9:50am
Magic! That, and an old 5kg protein tub. I guess an empty bulk powders bag might work, but I find the seals on them don't last too long. I also use a small pestle and mortar to crush the vitamin tablets.

@QuidNYC, just wanted to say thanks for posting your recipes. It's obvious that you've put a lot of research into what you've produced here, and us lucky sods get to benefit! Do you have any updates on your progress using this latest iteration of Ketofood?
endtropy - Jun 21, 2014 1:30am
Tim be careful of changing things blindly. It's a combination of balancing your Macro needs and your Micro needs. Cutting oil and Masa will do more then just reduce calories, it's going to effect micro nutrient levels as well. If your goal is to stay…

Hi, using the Nutrient Profile Calculator, it tells me I should eat ~1800 calories a day. I'm also currently an active weight lifter, working out three times a week, so I want to ensure I'm getting enough protein. This recipe gets me 87g/day, which seems…

Can someone tell me, definitively, how much water I should be adding to 1 cups worth of this mix? In fluid ounces please.
sbgunther - Jun 20, 2014 9:39pm
How does this look? Will I die if I eat this?
axcho - Jun 20, 2014 9:30pm
It's a strong flavor (one might even say, an acquired taste) but it's a good accent on the blandness of the oatmeal and salad mix. Fish and vinegar. I like it.

Additionally i reduced the cocoa to 15 grm and the chia seeds to 20 grm. Not much is lost and it can be easily compensated with some grms of prot powder.
PurpleLizzard - Jun 20, 2014 9:01pm
I reduced the coconut flour to 50 grm and ist so much more easy to drink, it has the consistency of the brand soylent, its almost liquid instead of dense. And the little prot that you lose you can compensate with very few grms of prot powder, just find…
PurpleLizzard - Jun 20, 2014 8:52pm
50 grms of chia seeds? Its gonna be gritty.
FutureBSD - Jun 20, 2014 8:39pm

Your main sources of calories are the masa and oil. If you make a copy of the recipe you can reduce the masa and maybe a tad of the oil and then boost the protein powder. This is what Quid's Superfood version is actually tuned for as it's higher protein…

skirr - Jun 20, 2014 5:05pm
I like the recipe, it looks slim and well thought out. You could probably lower the price if you'd consider other shops as well. I started developing my own recipe with products from myprotein.com. They sell powders in large quantities and pretty cheap,…
endtropy - Jun 20, 2014 4:49pm

malove2play - Jun 19, 2014 11:46pm
You don't need to add the sulfur powder into this recipe. Whey protein contains both of the amino acids methionine and cystine, so it contains plenty of sulfur on its own. source: http://www.fosube.com/sulfur-proteins.html
