I was able to source most of this via large supermarkets (Central Market, HEB) here in Austin, TX. A local homebrew supply store had the maltodextrin and Walmart, of course, had the Equate brand multi-vitamin.
This blend is in the process of being optimized for flavor; I have used the Soylent genetic algorithms page (http://2potatoes.github.io/genetic-soylent/?recipe=lowercalorie-diy-basic-v3-geneticized) to optimize other aspects of it. I recommend putting your own details in there and optimizing for your own needs, especially macronutrients. My macros are currently aiming for an 1800 calorie recipe at 30/20/50 for protein/fat/carbs.
The Omega-6, Iodine and Sulfur should all be fine assuming you don't consume this mix exclusively (there's plenty of these--probably too much--in the standard American diet).
Note: 1.85 ml of salt ~= 3/8 teaspoon. 3.48 ml of salt substitute = just slightly over 2/3 teaspoon.
