Have you guys tried "living off" of this formula for an extended period yet?

Acá otro Argentino, de Tucumán, todavía en pañales en lo que respecta al tema...

Hilarious! I really enjoyed that rant -- thanks for posting. A much needed reminder to "find out for yourself" and to "trust the evidence"! Two thumbs up for that one.

Okay that video was awesome. I must admit that I have spread some propaganda myself without doing any research. Hopefully this will be a lesson to me, and I won't forget to do my own research. I love the line "How do you even tie your shoes in the…

I will just leave this here. NSFW But very very informative on the subject. I myself was guilty of spreading some of the hearsay about Monsanto and GMOs.

You make a very good point. Its like the fools who talk about the increase in autism. When in all actuality it is due to autism being misdiagnosed on a grand scale in the past.

ProPA,You are messed up. Okay, you may not be, but that's a messed up thing to suggest.For the record, if someone wanted an entirely organic Soylent, they're free to make it themselves. Unfortunately, a big part of commercial Soylent is the price. And…

Thanks for the ProPA-ganda. I don't much like Monsanto either but you actually make me embarrassed to state that.

I'd like to see soylent be as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible, but I'm not convinced that being entirely organic or GMO free will result in it being as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible. If you're concerned that…

Great. Thanks for coming.

Whatever... Just eat your PestiMOs, die faster. Like I care anyway. ain't touching this crud... Was Only hoping to help improve it as some have made their concerns known. unfortunately ignorant and brainwashed Societal advocates of the cult of monsanto,…

Evidence, please. Cancer rates may or may not have risen--it may just be better diagnosed. People are living longer now, so it stands to reason that more will develop cancer in their lifetimes. Also, the evidence for GMOs causing cancer is weak. So…

I didn't say that... read my post carefully. In the period prior to GM/pesticides, people died of many other things, bacteria, virus, coal pollution, other toxins in the air and cancer aggrevation was caused by many of some other factors, but incidence…

Lots of unique ways of living life - just don't bring others down with ya...

Live fast and die young. That's what I am doing. I will do what I want and have fun doing it and die young. Soylent just makes me more efficient at food consumption which gives me more time to do other stupid things.

So there was no cancer prior to GM/pesticides? Logic fail.

Try this...http://pathways.embl.de/iPath2.cgi

This is beyond my understanding, but it's pretty so I sought the source. While the corner clearly says Kanehisa Laboratories, their site got me nowhere. A reverse image search was also no good. I did find very similar, but not sure if it's the origin…

Quick update: For a few days now I have been on a soylent based on the spreadsheet of @CuriousBen To me it's a very clear template to work with and the shipments to Germany have been hassle-free. Today I tried my beloved Aldi instant coffee in the mix,…

Interesting, it looks like this was a multi-layered image that highlighted pathways of 10 different metabolisms, of which you had Carbohydrates highlighted when you copied the image. Do you have a link to the original website? I think it might be easier…

As a narcoleptic, I require modafinil to function. Unfortunately it's currently controlled by a rapacious and vile collection of too-rich sociopaths who collectively conspire to harm people by charging a ridiculous price for a necessary medication.…

Right. Kali: I'm not sure how to send private messages here, so I'm publicly expressing interest in your formula. I can come to you in Wrocław and get it. I would be interested in 2-3 months' supply for two people.

Contact Kali.I'm out.

I am in Poland regularly, between Wrocław and Warszawa. Would really be interested in experimenting with this "local" formula for a few months.

How do you read this chart? @jatwood - Why did I have to type "How do you read this chart?" instead of "How do you read it?". Seriously man, them word limits ain't working.

e10ec968.png1211x1473 880 KB I looked at this image as proof of a need for a Soylent conceptual primer, for the sake of safety. But it's fascinating in general. Thoughts? e10ec968.png1211x1473 880 KB e10ec968.png1211x1473 880 KB

I tried modafinil. It certainly works, I was wired for about 2 days, did not sleep, and got a lot done. That said, I do not recommend it. Any productivity gain in the short term was outweighed by the recovery period and the inconvenience of having to…

To zostawaj, mam nadzieję, że szybko będzie dostępne w Polsce

Żywność? Suplement diety. Tak będzie dużo łatwiej. I wydaje mi się, że jestem pierwszy w kolejce do zostania dystrybutorem.

Jak znacie kogoś, kto zajmuje się handlem żywnością, to można mu zaproponować zostanie dystrybutorem oryginalnego Soylentu na Polskę. Jak ten produkt stanie się popularny, to potencjalnie może się stać bogatym człowiekiem A ktoś z Polski pewnie mógłby…

Nieźle, pomysł się sprawdza, tylko mi dość drogo wyszło. Chyba będę rezygnować do czasu zdobycia właściwego Soylentu. W związku z tym mam sporo składników na sprzedaż. Wrzucę tutaj potem listę z cenami.

Witam,Też jestem bardzo zainteresowany Soylentem, dajcie znać jak Wam idzie

Here is the nutritional info on other insects.

Chris, you may already be aware of this, but for those who aren't: one of the most usual culture media for Tenebrio molitor is wheat bran. This is also probably the cheapest decent option, IF you buy it at a feed store in sacks. Don't get it from health…

$17 in so far. I already have the tupperware container. I'll probably have to really jack up my starting batch so I don't wait forever to get going. The smell is just the oats they live in.

This sounds awesome! (Never had bug myself, though). Could you keep us updated on the cost, maintenance routines, etc? I'm also curious if they have a smell to them during cultivation.

I'm personally a while away from being able to stomach it personally but that's just me being an idiot -- it's definitely a good idea. If you can market this I'll buy it, but making it myself just puts me off.

Here's a scientific paper on the farming of mealworms and a breakdown including amino acids. The Yellow Mealworm as a Novel Source of Protein

I'm going to give it a go. We just bought some fatties from the local pet store so they should progress the fastest and start the colony. We set up a 4 drawer tupperware and will swap beetles between 2 of the drawers every two weeks, keep the pulpa in…

This is really interesting. I can see a future where soylent is made from bacteria and insects.

Seems easy enough but I feel a little ill just considering it http://www.nyworms.com/mealworms.htm

Now there's a brilliant idea! I raised them briefly many, many years ago, in the 1970s IIRC, and they are dead easy to propagate. Someone should try this one! I don't remember where we got the starter stock, though -- any idea of easy sources, Chris?…

Not on your life That's bait, not food!

Anyone consider raising mealworms and grinding them into flour for the protein and fat? It looks like their nutritional information breaks down to 27% fat, 49% protein. 100 grams = 471 calories and 6.9 grams of carb. Once the colony is going the only…

Hi, Greetings from Lübeck, I would be interested in a local group in Hamburg!

An article about modafinil: http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1885825,00.html - haven't checked the studies on this personally,but it isn't the first time I have heard this. Basically, modafinil does seem to affect dopamine. Generally speaking…

What about flavor? I've heard some of the nootropics are whisky-face inducing. What about on the stomach?

nwbb said: I really recommend staying away from modafinil (price alone!) - I think I read that you were interested in it, Rob? It's a sledgehammer aimed at narcoleptics. It will make you more productive and it will keep you awake, but the overall…

@rob— i see you're using it throughout the day—what form are you taking it in? mine is powder/granular, so i'm mixing it in. tiny scale. all that. i think my roommate think i'm making meth. i wasn't "feeling" my code writing itself, so, i started inserting…

These are both fascinating papers. Thank you for sharing.

I've found that a tablespoon of MCT oil in my diy mix kills my appetite for several hours. Mixed with the more complete than usual nutrient profile of my new diet, I don't really get hungry for at least 8-10 hours, but then I was already used to doing…

This is quite interesting. I know they have diet pills that are supposed to stop people from feeling hungry. I wonder if it is possible to properly manage this to enable one to choose when they want to feel hungry, and when to not feel hungry. Have we…

Please do. We need that data to see if all Soylent is doing to us is turning us giddy.

I suspected a sugar rush when I first took it. It feels great, and there is no crash, but maybe that's because I take it throughout the day. Then again, I was feeling better in the morning before I took any Soylent. I'll definitely get a glucometer and…

Czego używacie jako źródło:- litu- krzemu- boru?

All the time? With half-oat version? No way.

So you all basically have a sugar rush?

Well, whatever it is, I'm glad it's working, but I'm pretty certain it's the maltodextrin. While waiting for my 12 pound bag to come in the mail, I picked up some carbohydrate at a local GNC. Vitargo worked okay in the past, but was really expensive.…

Existen personas de confianza en la comunidad bitcoin, con reputación establecida, que mantienen el dinero en depósito para esta clase de cosas.

Creatine Glycerol Phosphate is an alternative if you're already taking creatine, which is usually in the form of creatine monohydrate. It's more expensive, but the company producing GCP makes some claims about it being more bioavailable and causing less…

Monosodium Phosphate is the safest option, I guess, and I'm trying to get it in Poland, with no luck so far. The ones you have linked to are either too expensive to ship or simply cannot be shipped to Poland (the Amazon one). Dicalcium phosphate - too…

Exacto, por eso estoy buscando gente que lo quiera hacer, yo lo compraría para un mes, pero necesito gente qe quiera compartir gastos porque si no el precio sale excesivo, cualquiera con una balanza electrónica podría coger el producto y repartirlo entre…

For the vegan version I'd look into algae-based DHA as well as potato protein to replace the whey. Protein protein isolate is nearly the plant-based version of whey. It has the highest % of essential amino acids compared to any other vegetable protein…

To be honest, couple with the maxed-out-on-micro-nutrients hypothesis that seems like the best explanation.

When on Soylent, one is always well-nourished and the brain simply can afford high energy usage caused by intensive thinking. Try eating at MCDonalds for a week. Next week, eat high quality, balanced, easily-digestible food. You should see similar difference.You…

Your last one is true, we spend 10% of what we eat digesting it. But how do you explain the newfound ability to concentrate and the always feeling peppy?

Just a few examples: Potassium deficiency symptoms: fatigue, sleepiness, muscle weekness and cramps, arrhytmiaPhosphorous deficiency symptoms: joint pain, joint stiffness, low energy, lacking appetiteThiamin deficiency symptoms: lacking appetite, gastric…

Everything you eat is GMO, either through controlled evolution or genetic tinkering. Its not neccesarily bad. But thats beside the point and another discussion Since soylent aims for being a chemically defined diet, there is no presently or recently…

I'm interested in whether Soylent will contain GMO ingredients. There's enormous pushback in Europe against GMOs in food, and the U.S. is starting to feeling it too. There might be some benefits (health, marketing) from having an all-natural/organic option.…

I am in a similar boat Actually there are a few potential explanations (2 off the top of my head). One of the theories of depression is that inflammation is a (partial or complete) cause. If you are celiac you will often get depression / anxiety alongside…

While I did not notice an increased strength gain that exceeds normal training benefit, I did notice that training on normal food doesn't work quite as good as training on Soylent...That is probably just a matter of my digestive system taking energy away…
