Just a heads up - In the ingredients of your Table Salt you only have Sodium listed. Table salt is sodium chloride. If you correct your table salt to include Chloride - you'll see that you are over your maximum (RED) for chloride. Just giving you…

Hello! What kind of blender/food-processor is best for this recipe?

She'll be right its not too bad. Did you get headaches when you first started on it. I ve been getting them wonder if itz cos not having sugar. I know sugar is a bitch when you try to stay off it

I'm getting some heartburn; I'm thinking its the 30 grams of cocoa. I've cut it back down to the 20 mg. If it doesnt go away i may try to cut it out completely. Its that or the oat flour.

The other alternative is to use coconut oil. It's a lot more expensive but will taste better and has a 50% omega 6 ratio.

Can't really avoid that though. You could try a different oil and see if a different oil tastes better but peanut oil has a high percentage of omega 6 so you don't need to add as much. I still find it tastes better than some protein shakes I've had.

compared to the dri, some of the ingrediants i dont care about like vit D and chromium

Is there Lactose is this recipe?

Je compte faire un ratio 25% carb, 40% prot, 35% fat. J'ai besoin d'environ 1900 cal apparemment. Bonne idée pour la bouffe, mais il va me falloir du temps pour tout virer =D Question : tu prends quoi pour la marque de l'huile et du sucre?

I ordered from the link you posted this weekend and tub arrived today with 6mcg B12. Unless the stockist has two different batches I think it's fine.

bedankt!

Okay, so I just used my scale, measured out each ingredient properly for an entire batch of People Chow for one day. How much water or skim milk should be added (32 oz)? Also, after letting it chill in the fridge for three hours, I tasted it. It's…

how long does this recipe last?

Paar tips: Er zit veel meer in whey protein concentrate dan dat in je recept vermeld staat. Zelfde geldt voor olijfolie. Je MSM hoeveelheid klopt ook niet. De ratio omzetting van MSM naar zwavel is 3:1.

Well spotted - removed that line :)

Hi guys. I used this recipe to make some soylent and I've been using it for two days now. The taste is OK, almost a bit too sweet, so I am going to replace a small part of vanilla protein with unflavoured one. One strange thing though - right after drinking…

Hey cultofmonkey! Soybean Oil is no longer used in this recipe yet you have information on it on the Notes! Can I suggest you update it so that newbies to this recipe don't get confused? Thanks! And thanks for this recipe. My ingredients are on their…

OK, dieses Rezept ist in Ordnung. Jetzt versuch ich die Kommentare hier in kryzsi_a2 zu verwenden. Es gilt Trockenpulver herzustellen

Dead food, dead people. Living food, living people. If you live in USA go out and see what people look like and see what they are eating. Read the ingeredients of Soylent and how it mirrors so many foods that comes in a box with a label. Put Soylent…

Complimenti per la ricetta, l'hai realmente realizzata e provata?

Unser Sozialstaat gibt Bedürftigen 4,40 für Essen am Tag. Soylent sollte nicht teurer sein

Buenas, no tiene mala pinta la receta. Una duda: ¿ese "alphabet classic white" dónde puede comprarse desde España?

Short version: Be *sure* to buy the *exact* same Kirkland multi-vitamin that is linked to in the recipe. The label should say 'Compare To Centrum' on it. Longer version: There's at least two *very very* similar-looking Kirkland multi vitamins out…

That link you posted is the one that I bought as well and it's *not* the right ones. The B12 level is only 1mcg (the text says 6mcg, but if you look at the actual photo of the nutrient label it only reads a 1mcg. Other totals are off as well. I've…

Done. Thanks for the heads up.

Is it okay for women to eat this despite the GNC Mega Men, and if not, is there a suitable female replacement that would not effect taste?

http://discourse.soylent.me/t/potassium-citrate-question-issue-fatal/14338/2

potassium citrate is fatal and if you got a whole bunch of it from what I've heard you could have a heart attack... So I personally think this is real dumb :X

Thanks for pointing this out. The Amazon link indeed points at a product that has different values than listed, http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002RL8FCU ("Kirkland Signature Daily Multi Vitamins & Minerals Tablets, 500-Count Bottle", from £14.49),…

Could you please change the price you have listed because it is not even close. I spent $270+ for everything.

Hi I just started looking through this site yesterday. Yours is the first recipe for triathletes that (there seems to be one other but it doesn't have enough calories) I have seen. How long have you been using this? For me eating enough seems to…

Going to look at replacing some of the corn flour with blue corn, which has more nutritional value, a lower glycemic index and more protien. Also going to investigate some additional super foods to up the nutritional efficiency.

Anyone know if the soybean oil can be subbed for olive oil? I'm having a hard time finding local soybean oil.

Really depends on your level of activity, I would have thought that eating 1500 would be about right if you are sedentary.

Das ursprungsrezept von thekryz ist sehr gut und schmeckt sehr gut. Dieses hier ernährt mich seit nun fast zwei Wochen. Manchmal ess ich "normal" mit anderen und ich merke, dass meine alten Essgewohnheiten wohl viel mit meinem Tagesgefühl zu tun hatten.…

Good to hear yours is right. Maybe I've ordered it from somewhere else. Good to keep an eye on this though.

Gibt's schon Erfahrungsberichte? Bist du noch dabei oder gibt's Änderungen am Rezept?

@BriBy Do you know any alternative with similar values for GNC Mega Men? It's not available in Europe as far as I know (at least not in Germany). Besides from that and based on what my "demand" on nutritions is, this one is very close.

Niacin is a water-soluable vitamin. Over dosage can cause skin flushing, but I haven't had any issues at all. Most energy drinks overdose on B vitamins too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niacin#Toxicity

It is easiest if you add ingredients in the order I have them listed. Throw everything into the blender, add 5 cups of water and blend

Hey bro, your recipe is only 86% complete

Julo tu compte faire quel ratio ? Un conseil pour chez toi. Si tu peux vire toute la bouffe pour ne pas être tenter et ne fait ces repas social qu'à l'extérieur jamie-lord : I'm glade that you like it :). I prefer when it's a bit thicker ( more like…

So i should be starting this next week. Just waiting on the Calcium Magnesium. I decided to add Diatomaceous Earth the the mix for the added health benefits. And will have some fruits and vegetables on occasion. My goal is 3 meals a day for 30 days minus…

Is there a problem with the Niacin being so high?

I've been using this recipe for about a week now and so far so good. It's very tasty, the texture is fine and it doesn't leave me feeling hungry, which is great!

how do you mix it

Je vais tester un ratio "low carb" pour ma part, apparemment ça a des effets très positifs. Je te tiens au courant dès que j'ai démarré l'expérience. Moi c'est par économie et parce que j'ai beaucoup de mal à m'alimenter correctement (pas le temps de…

Abandoned the rice flour branch. There just isn't enough fiber in rice flour to make it worth it. When I can find a better fiber source than wheat bran, I may come back to this.

Ik haal nu de omega 3 uit lijnzaadolie en chroom uit kaneel. Het smaakt nog lekkerder nu. Je kunt het één dag proberen voor 5,50 EUR inclusief verzendkosten. Stuur even een mailtje naar joeyvankoningsbruggen@gmail.com of voeg me toe op Facebook als je…

I'm very interested to hear of your progress. How many meals would you estimate with listed amount of ingredients?

Bought mine in Costco two/three weeks ago - Kirkland is their own brand: 6µg.

Hi QuidNYC, I believe there's mention on the back of the Soylent 1.0 label that MgO is used but I noticed its absent in your recipe.

NVM, I saw the note in your CL. Thanks!

Hi QuidNYC, my LarthurMix is very similar to what you've done here. However, I don't see any mention of xanthin gum in the application overview. Care to elaborate?

The quantities are for one days worth of food. Notice the calorie amount. Most people need/should take in around 2000 calories per day.

Look at Chris' 7 day batch video so you can learn how to make enough soylent to last 7 days. Buy 50 lb [Vittles Vault](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DJOOI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER), QuidNYC recommends these. Keep…

Monsanto has your back: http://www.monsanto.com/products/pages/how-omega-3-works.aspx

http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/fats-and-oils/507/2 All soybean oil should contain Omegas. Maybe take a fish-oil supplement if you are worried.

Soybean oils don't contain those normaly?

That's very odd. Just checked my tub - it contains 6mcg of B12. I also checked my past Amazon orders & I've definitely posted the same link I used. Very annoying if Kirkland have changed their recipe. I spent a long time trying to find the right multivitamin.…

I ordered all the ingredients and I'm mixing up my first batch tonight.

Hi QuidNYC, I have been eating this recipe for about 2 weeks now, other than the occasional non-soylent meal. Over and over as I think I've found some sort of issue with the composition, I research further and realize I'm wrong. This is really a remarkably…

I'm very curious to hear about your experience with this recipe. I'm a crossfitter as well and haven't ever tried going to a full Zone diet but its been on the radar for a while now and, for me, this recipe would make the diet change pretty manageable…

Ik heb je gemaild :)

After some more experimentation (and getting a syringe to properly measure the oil rather than using the previous "tip the can and make a huge mess" method) Either I have just gotten used to the taste or I've made it better. That said I probably should…

Curious - has anyone here tried the actual product? It's a bit more expensive but it is shipping now, albeit slowly. I have been traveling A LOT lately, and it is very difficult to keep up with the making and cleaning when working 10-12 hour days on…

Hi was just checking out your recipe I would probably not use the salt substitute the sodium portion of salt is essential to proper body functions. Sodium binds to water to maintain intra and extracellular fluids in balance. It also along with potassium…

Not really a huge deal though. You will definitely mix it quite well, but even if you get say, 2x the correct amount 1 day, and 1/2 the amount 2 other days, it just averages out over short enough time frames.

I use the isopure vanilla and the taste is very good, specially if vanilla is added. I dont know about the cinamon. I seem to tolerate it well and it give a touch of spicy. Iso pure is very nice, good quality, good product and its loaded with nutrients.…

I see the logic. I will do that with my next batch. Thank you :)

Do you still have the ingredients for sale? Im launching a business of diy soylent. Would you accept credit until i fulfill the first orders that will cover the price of the ingredients? I have already 3 clients ready to pay.

Just out of curiosity, the addition of the stevia, that's just for flavor?

Can I substitute isowhey for the rice powder? I'm not vegan, and I have found that Isowhey release a diabetic version that I'd like to use.

Ben - My quick fix for this is I do what Chris has done here but every night before I go to bed I take that bag for 1 day, toss it in the blender with oil and water and mix it up. I have no concern about homogeneity at that point. I let it sit in the…

Conceptually, this is a great idea. The specifics of this product concern me. Maltodextrin, Sucralose, artificial flavors, canola oil that is almost certainly GMO, and a bunch of ingredients that I can't pronounce all would prevent me from purchasing…

21 Year old Triathlete, 10 - 15 hours a week of exercise. Thoughts?

My concern with preparing in bulk is that you would not get an even distribution of all the ingredients. Take Masa and Choline for instance, it is a ratio of 172.5 to 1. I'm afraid no matter how thoroughly you mix, the distribution is going to be off.

What steps do you take to prepare this?

Anybody else getting weird poops with people chow? Been on this for a week and my stools have been primarily gold/yellow in color and in small stringy pieces

There are 3 sources of potassium in the ingredients: cocoa powder, potassium chloride, and cream of tartar. Can I just use cocoa powder in larger amounts and get rid of the other 2? Or, are the other 2 a source for other nutrients? Thanks!

I am going to echo this. I take Adderall XR and getting hunger cues from my body is not a reliable way of timing meals because they don't happen unless I am really hungry. In addition not getting enough protein to drive neurotransmitter synthesis can…

Hey Baard, Koel. Mail me even misschien kunnen we samenwerken. Daarvoor moet je gewoon even gaan zitten met iemand van de kvk. Afspraak maken en langsgaan.

Hey Hosselman, Ik heb geen interesse om je recept te kopen, alleen ben ik zelf door de hele maalmolen aan het gaan om mijn eigen recept te kunnen verkopen. Hoe heb jij dat gedaan? Wat voor vergunningen heb je nodig? Ik wordt bij de overheid van het…

Hey Baard, Bedankt voor je reactie man. De prijzen komen niet meer overeen. Ik bestel het in zakken van 25kg. De wei is gewoon Whey zoals dat wordt gebruikt door sporters. Het wordt inderdaad geproduceerd in een willekeurige keuken. Ik doe het zelf…

Thank you for your help, i will think about it. As I am not doing a lot of exercise, I think I need it to be ketogenic

When a diet has very low carbohydrate content, and most of the calories are derived from protein and fat, your body produces ketones, which cause it to get its energy from your stored fat. This causes rapid weight loss, even though you are ingesting calories.…

And any help for the digestive issues would be appreciated as it is annoying

Thanks for your answer, I saw the words "ketogenetic" and "ketogenesis" but absolutely do not what it means, being French...Would you mind explain it simply? What would I need to change in the recipe for it to be like that?

LiqCake is high protein, low carb. So the weight loss with this recipe probably comes from it being ketogenic. If you add maltodextrin, you may well not become ketogenic, and therefore any weight loss will be from good old (hard) calorific deficit,…

Hello, is this recipe too low in calories for a male wanting to diet? I am 5'9 and 238 Pds

Hello. I have started (it is my 4th day) a variant of this recipe with malto for a total of 2000KCal. It is the first time I ve tried anything like this and for now there are mostly worries: My digestive system is all messed up and I have not lost any…

Yeah I agree the peanut oil really overpower the taste doesn't it

Dices que la Lecitina de Soya la compraste en Farmacias Similares, pero como supiste cuanta Colina por porción te daba si no viene en la informacion nutrimental :/

Hi There, I have decided to go with a diy.solylent for 30 days as the real soylent is taking too long to get here. I have chosen this one due to all the comments, Knowledgeable creator, and because I'm from NY. My primary Goal for doing this is weight…

Hey (important!), you get all of the vitamin B12 from the Kirkland pills. They seem to cover 100% of the B12 daily need, according to your recipe. But on my Kirkland pills container it says 1ug of B12, which they give as 40% of the daily recommended allowance.…

Better to just keep each day's worth of oil in a separate container. That way you could prepare all of the oil at once and not have to worry about spoilage. The month's worth of powder should be fine, but I wouldn't suggest mixing up that much powder…

I think the amount of potassium citrate might be dangerous - the FDA caps the recommended elemental potassium intake at 99mg.

i have not yet made this. it is based largely on people chow tortilla perfection. i didn't love the masa flour grit. in it's place are bananas (4 per day!) and yogurt and soymilk and rice milk. peanut butter (20 g) can be eliminated and the recipe remains…

Meant to add to say thank you to Quid. As "tough" a finished product as the current recipe is, I imagine the road to getting here was bumpy :-)
