Has anyone given this one a try?

Hey anyone give this recipe a try yet? Thanks!

How long have you been using this? Is it every meal or just some meals? If some meals, how many meals of this vs. "normal" food? Any info regarding how you felt the first several days / once it started feeling the same for a while appreciated. Much thanks.

I'm still working out the kinks in this. Yes, I know the taste is probably the biggest downfall. Lecithin should help make it mix better to help with texture. Actual taste-wise it all depends what you like. Add vanilla, chocolate, banana...whatever floats…

You're going to have to elaborate. 14% of what daily req.? I also cannot find the 7% you are referring to.

Is this gluten-free overall? I see the gluten-free oat flour, but it's not tagged gluten-free.

I checked out your blog but I only see two days so I'm wondering if you could put a summery here. How long have you been using this? Is it every meal or just some meals? If some meals, how many meals of this vs. "normal" food? Any info regarding how you…

Lame! :)

I've since figured out how to change the mirconutrient quantitites: enter all of your details and macronutrients and select one of the DRI profiles and create your custom nutrient profile. Then go to that profile and click edit, where you can change the…

hallo, leuk om te zien dat er iemand met mijn recept in de weer gaat. ik maak zelf halve dag porties aan. dus 1250 kcal. dat is ongeveer mijn blender eenderde vol aan droog materiaal. dit vul ik aan met water tot iets meer dan 1 liter. ik denk dat dat…

Yeah I'm not sure what to say. I have the bottle in my hand and they don't match and when I go to the Australian website it matches my bottle and not the one on the recipe. Maybe there are multiple formulations going around? Either way, people should…

Zeg Baard; Als ik jullie productie proces zo lees; Moet ik dan denken aan naakte vrouwen in een lab zoals bij een coke lab in Mexico? Of meer aan het lab van Breaking Bad? :-)

Mijn allereerste bestelling!!! Ben benieuwd. Al veel over gelezen maar leek me handiger om maar niet zelf te lopen prutsen.

I want to change the ingredients, not necessarily the nutrient profile. Soy and Canola oil are both industrial poisons and I do not want them in my Soylent. I want to replace them with cocout oil and why protein and go from there. How do I do this?

evo gruba kalkulacija. http://diy.soylent.me/recipes/hrvatski-sojin-soylent-sa-izolatom-2000kcal-efsa-rda?nutrientProfile=53c5b4f17ed92202006220f7 not bad I think, samo vise od duplo skuplji, pretezno upravo zbog izolata. Fali ovako selena i kolina.…

gledao sam ih kad sam ovaj sastavljao. al nastojao sam zadrzati ga veganskim.Ako to nije bitno, izolata iz sirutka (whey) je bilo i u nekom lokalnom shopu u teretani, koji sam gledao. Al prvo googleanje ne ispada mi nista jeftinije ako idem s tim - samo…

To reduce the grittiness of this, I increased the Whey powder and decreased the Coconut Flour in it. I also switched to using Bob's Red Mill Coconut Flour, which has a finer texture. I also adjusted the lecithin, cinnamon and sea salt to match. Now this…

To reduce iron, you need to reduce the oat flour and do something with the Nycoplus Multi. I'm considering boosting the protein content, and experiment with replacing some oat flour for coconut flour, which should reduce the iron, and boost fiber content…

The lecithin in the amazon link is not a liquid as listed in the recipe, it's Bob's Soy Lecithin Granules. How much of the granules am I supposed to add to the recipe?? Also, I also am interested in finding out how to reduce the manganese. I can't figure…

I am new to Soylent and am going to try this one first. Everything finally came in the mail today. I am wondering if there is a way I could make a week's worth of soylent in a large container so that I am not making it every morning or night. Also, how…

I have been trying the same thing, I adjusted the diet for 1500 kcal and also add cocoa to improve the taste, give it a try and let me know what you think. http://diy.soylent.me/recipes/liquid-cake-v13-choco

Yeah so the 'Amount' is how much you add to a days worth of powder. So you are taking just over 400g of powder throughout the day with water. (divide it depending on how many meals of it you want a day) No oils are required, as all the fatty acids come…

hey mate, you are making a lot of updates (v6 now.) What are you trying to optimise? cheers :)

http://www.reddit.com/r/soylent/comments/24wcgw/soylent_bowel_movements/ Read the comment at the very bottom of the page, and the initial comment right above it. Good stuff.

I get a headache every day, and it started when I switched over to Soylent as my primary source of food. I've heard a potential solution is to increase the potassium citrate and calcium/magnesium. I've upped both from 6g to 8g, but it doesn't really help.…

Very much down to personal preference but somewhere between 1-2L for a full day batch. Try with less, and just add more water if its too thick. I'll often add more water as I approach the bottom of a shaker.

This is the version I'm currently using. Today, I made a half-recipe. Since it was a smaller amount, I just pureed everything, adding water. I like it this way, with all of the fiber. I think I'll try making half- recipes tomorrow as well. If I don't…

I'm concerned by http://www.people-chow.com/mixing-your-own-calcium-magnesium-and-d3-good-idea-or-not/ -- it seems to say to a newbie that People Chow doesn't have enough Vitamin D3. Elsewhere B12 is mentioned. I'd be fine taking D3 Pills / Capsules and…

A bit much iron perhaps? Women probably need that extra iron but men don't.

Hi there. Pegavite is a multivitamin for horses. Have you taken this? Is it safe for human consumption?

Pegavite is a multivitamin for horses. Have you taken this? Is it safe for human consumption?

What brand is it exactly? Sounds great.

Also, Is the "Amount" the daily amount? If so, would it need to be further apportioned to the equiv of 3 servings? Also, how much water should I mix with each serving?

Hello, I am new to all this - firstly - any tips on things I would need to accurately measure out these things accurately? Also, do I need to add any oils, or is this a complete recipe?

I've made 21 meals of this recipe so far. Taste is pretty average, so I just drink it quickly. I mix it up with water to a volume of 500mL and let it soak in the fridge for at least an hour. This softens up the lecithin nicely. I just have the oil separate,…

I got the values from a nutritionist's website. I'm changing this soon and I'll make it available as soon as I try it.

I also wonder this...any news regarding this information? I have looked all over internet, but didn't find anything about chloride.

I've been making People Chow off and on for many months now (since 2.3 I think). I thought I'd tried every possible little change to make it taste better, but this morning I almost fell over. I had been getting my Maseca at the local grocery stores…

This is my Mark II recipe. The fibre is at US RDA levels of 38g; my newer Mark III recipe (same ingredients) aligns with UK RDA of fibre at 24g. The reduction of Psyllium husk from 24g to only 8g in the Mark III will help reduce the thickness of it. If…

Just got all the ingredients for my own variant of this! :) Everything is the same except that I'm using chocolate mass gainer for protein (found it cheaper locally than unflavored) and extra virgin olive oil. Now I'm just waiting on my shaker and scale…

I got the values from the back of the bottle.. they should be right.

Hi, just a watch out that the Centrum Multivitamin for Men has the nutritionals for the US version of the pills, not the Australian version which is formulated differently...

You don't need that much protein. 200g is over the top, really. You could lose some of it. Don't drop too far below 100g though.

I was wondering if there is something else I can use for carb instead of the masa. I just find the grit from that so unappetizing.

MATH! :D

As for different types, its hard to tell which one is the best because they don't give complete nutrition label, only the basics. I havent personally tried many yet and I usually just defer to Max's "people chow" recipe for which masa to buy since hes…

So I made a modification to improve the taste and consistency. My suggestion is to remove the oil completely, reduce the amount of cocoa and to use a bit of skim milk. I mix 1 cup of skim milk in my pitcher and the rest is water. It reduces the strength…

Oat flour was what we tried when we first started and it is the single worst ingredient we have ever tried. besides the taste and texture the real issue with it is that humans can't properly digest raw oats very well. This lead to stomach aches, bloating…

This shit is legendary..!

This recipe has more than just the protein in it. It also has complex carbs, fiber, and fat all of which will help keep you feeling full. You can try it as is and see if it works for you. If you do end up feeling hungry you can modify the recipe with…

This is a very interesting recipe, I might borrow an ingredient or two from it.

Thanks for this :) Made me chuckle.

There's quite alot of evidence to suggest it's only bad for you in quanities people never consume, but seriously? Reused gutter oil and you pick up on the aspartame? XD

Don't know if doing this is allowed here but I decided to back out of trying to do this. I was wondering if anybody would like to buy some of the more expensive ingredients off me, they are opened however. But would help me out and probably be cheaper…

I'd like to know how I could completely replace masa with oat flour in this mix. Also, is there an information page you could link me to regarding the quality of many different kinds of masa and oat flour?

Just made myself my first batch of your UK RDA Soylent Mark 2. It was very thick (like porridge) so I decided to add another 200mls of skimmed milk & some coconut water with it to make it more like a shake & easier for me to consume. Just wanted to know…

Woop! Just ordered all the stuff I need from bulk powders :D It was an expensive order, but I got it all hella cheap and now I have a stock which should last quite a while. If anyone else is using bulk powders, use this referral code when you register:…

Blijkbaar reageerd iedereen hier anders op. Ik heb nooit behoefte gehad naar bepaald eten. Wel was het gevoel van een lege maag voor mij erg wennen.

Gebruik het al een maand 5 dagen per week. De smaak is prima, als je er geen zin in hebt in de smaak is het ook zo weg gewerkt. Dit integenstelling tot maaltijd salades die met wat moeite in 10 min weg te werken zijn. Een maaltijd is makkelijk in 2 min…

It is very inexpensive (5¢/day) to add vitamin k supplements to this recipe if you are worried about deficiency. Alternatively, eat dark green vegetables and leafy greens for vitamin k.

Another casein protein question. I am a soylent noob and I have decided on this recipe for my first trial. I have been considering supplementing casein protein into this soylent because whey protien shakes have never left me feeling full for long, and…

I add water till it totals 2 L, and I've been doing 500 ml every 3 hours or so. I recommend easing into it, like maybe only 1 L the first days

It looks like Lecithin could be (but do not take my word for it) an even better supplement than Choline, as Lecithin contains several other (useful?) ingredients as well.

This might be a DUMB question... but just mix with water to desired consistency? ... also what % of the mixture would you recommend "loading" as your fist meal vs. gradual intake throughout the rest of the day?

I'm also about to try it out. I haven't gotten hold of Choline, but I figure replacing it with "Pure Lecithin" powder (found at Life) should work.

Yes.... And what is the ratio after you add the flaxseed oil and fish oil like I suggested?

Does anyone have any experience with this? I might go for it. Thanks for sharing!

What's the best way of cutting down the calories to 1500 instead of 1800? Could I lose some of the Rapeseed oil? That provides a staggering amount of calories. I was wondering if anything bad would happen if I cut out the Rapeseed oil COMPLETELY. I'm…

I believe the multiplier is just the number of units bought with the initial purchase. This allows the program to accurately calculate the cost when you purchase in bulk to save on some costs.

So after some trials with this formula, I've found it to be quite good! My method is pretty simple: I split this formula into thirds, weighing the mass out using a cheap digital kitchen scale. I split each third into 28 oz Blender Bottles and mix them…

Op verschillende plekken kom ik maximale dagelijkse hoeveelheden van tussen de 250-500 milligram tegen. Aan de andere kant is de aanbevolen dagelijkse hoeveelheid 350 milligram... Lekker verwarrende informatie dus.

De hoeveelheid Magnesium in dit recept zit ietsjes boven de aanbevolen dagelijkse hoeveelheid. Pas vanaf 800mg gaat je lichaam het afstoten (diaree). Met wat jij hier beschrijft zou ik eerder aan een tekort aan magnesium denken maar hier kan ik eigenlijk…

Vandaag 4e dag aan dit recept. Merkte al dat ik meer dan normaal last heb van een twitchend ooglid, en sinds gisteren heb ik af en toe last van spier-twitches die als electrische schokken voelen. Geen idee of mijn lichaam aan de verhoudingen van dit…

How much Psyllium do you use in place of the Masa? I made a huge mistake by replacing it 1:1...

Thanks a lot, not sure how I overlooked this.... all good now

Sorry i was in a testing stage, I've now fully replaced the GNC pills with their powder form.

You can tweak it as you like, i recommend only changing the whey and masa as they are easy to change and have a huge impact on carbs and protein. As for the fish oil I would be careful. It basically is only designed to add omega fatty acids to your diet…

there's no upper limit so it should be ok as long as you don't feel signs of overdose (like irregular heartbeat). I don't think that 8g is enough for that.

UK RDA for carbohydrates is 300g, protein is 55g and fat is 95g. Are the values in the profile based more on Rob's Newest Recommendation?

Avocado oil has an even higher ratio of (14:1) of Omega 6 to 3. It seems like Olive oil with flax might be a decent combo.

How much water are you meant to mix in with this? I've tried looking around and want find anything there. Sorry if its obvious I'm new to this.

Yeah going well on this mix. It's changed my life in terms of convenience, cost, energy, etc. My process is now to mix a weeks batch into a 8kg bucket and each evening put 4 cups into a 2.5l jug and add the water and oil before shaking for 20 seconds…

Good point actually. My fridge is way too small to store a meaningful amount, but most fridges would be big enough. Especially if they're not being used to store all kinds of other food.

how did you get these values?

I think it's possible to peel in bulk, and store them for a day or two in refrigerator, submerged in water.

Is there too much potassium (8 grams)? It can be lowered by replacing some of the potatoes with bread.

I don't bother personally, but the recipe calls for them to be skinned, so I assumed that :) It makes a bit of difference to nutrition, both for the potassium/fiber and also for a mild toxin which builds up in the skin of the potato. It's the same stuff…

Either remove honey or remove the vegan tag. Honey isn't vegan.

Replace the soybean oil with avocado oil, a tablespoon of flaxseed oil and a teaspoon fish oil supplement.

Replace it with Avacado oil

Htio bih probati ovaj recept, samo bih radije probao proteinski izolat. Znaš li gdje ga se može kupiti i u kojem omjeru bi zamijenio brašno?

So? Any update?
