In what way? According to who?
I've studied nutrition pretty heavily in the past as it pertained to my bodybuilding. They could have used so many better ingredients. Maltodextrin is the cheapest and worst complex carb you could have put in it. It's chemically a complex but really your body doesn't react much differently to it than other simple sugars.
I appreciate the coincidental irony that I am eating a bowl of muesli while reading this article this morning (AM in Aus., that is). * Whole rolled oats * Pumpkin seeds * LSA (powdered) * Sunflower seeds * Chopped green apple * Coconut water and Orange Juice 50/50 mix (NOT Milk, Ugh!) * Mango flavoured thick greek yoghurt Mmm...

Controlling for calories and assuming you're not diabetic why does it matter what your source of carbohydrate is?

The dozens of people on the Soylent subreddit who got weeks of diarrhea followed by jaundice? Though I think my favorite was the people who were arguing that some level of mold was acceptable if it meant they didn't have to deal with the inconvenience of foil seals.
Really? I don't want to laugh, but snrk Both my current and previous company got in Soylent on occasion; the current one has gotten Coffiest a few times, which I haven't tried, while the earlier one got in the bottled Soylent and the short-lived Soylent Bar. I tried the bottled version once--maybe twice?--and had no ill effects, but didn't particularly like it, either. I had no ill effects from the bar, either, and I…

LSA is a 3 in 1 solution [...] made of ground linseed, ground sunflower seeds and ground almonds
Seems to be a thing in Australia and New Zealand.
I've been eating Soylent twice a day for more than a year as my primary food source. I'm always interested in new variants (especially ones that cut down on cost) - this one seems interesting. Any chance that there's an Amazon shopping cart that someone can add to get all this stuff easily? Also, I noticed that the Readme links to Rob Rhinehart's page ( http://robrhinehart.com ). Unfortunately, it looks like it's all…
I'm asking because I think I would be severely depressed on such a monotone diet. I love cooking and it gives me great joy to eat good food, or new kinds of food, or even the boring lunch restaurant type food if it's done reasonably well.
Lunch is also a nice social event. I'm skipping lunch sometimes (when I'm not that hungry) but I feel like I missing the social aspect then.

what dosage of LSA? heard of people microdosing on LSD but not LSA -- do the nausea symptoms not express themselves at microdoses?

So about a half kilogram of oats and raisins with oil and various additives? I guess it's slightly more palatable than Soylent but eating it seems just incredibly grueling.
I think thats the point. He specifies that "excessive chewing activates digestion" or something on the github page. Its designed to be a real jaw grinder.
