MetaMilk is a DIY soylent created with taste in mind. It is sweet and smooth and frothy with zero grittiness because you aren't drinking a tortilla - the powdered components all dissolve completely. The idea is to take the pills separately to keep the nasty out of your drink and to ensure that you get plenty of micros even if you're combining it with regular food.
Recommended mix: 1/4 daily serving (109 g) with 1 cup water, dilute to taste.
There is legitimate concern over the efficacy of many brands of multivitamins, which is why I selected Nature Made products where possible, as they are the only major supplement maker that is USP verified.
You can cut the cost some by using a cheaper choline source, but I highly recommend Alpha GPC for cognition.
