As far as meal replacement shakes go, Soylent is the least offensive to your mouth if not in its name.
The mint one is especially good. But they certainly can't replace a meal, IMO. They don't really do anything at all to make you feel full enough that they actually satisfy hunger. I tend to have them for breakfast, but with toast or a bagel to actually feel like I ate.
My brother managed to drink only it for a while and it gave him crazy bad poops initially but it balanced out. He's just the soulless kind of guy it's meant for, he didn't miss the taste of real food in the slightest.
He's kicked it, though, probably because it really isn't great long term as the only thing you eat.
I lived on the Soylent bottles for quite a while, but one particularly busy active summer 2021 it landed me in the hospital because it turns out Soylent has no sodium, and if you have no sodium in your body then you end up in the hospital on a saline drip. Lesson learned and I share that lesson with everyone every time this topic comes up.
Important PSA, especially for tech bros like my literal brother. I'll remember that!
That's insane.
That it doesn't have salt, I mean. I remember when this stuff first came out and its creator was going around on talk shows and the like, talking about it and it was literally supposed to give you everything your body needed to survive. Which should include sodium.
I did the Soylent thing for 6 months for breakfast and lunch and ate normal for dinner, but after a while I just started to loathe the taste and texture. Then they jacked up the prices so I stopped my subscription.
Used to have it for lunch every day and it wasn't bad at all, knew the recipe by heart at some point...
That was my experience with Soylent, but huel works for me.
The powdered versions of Soylent are much more satiating. I'm pretty sure they intentionally formulated the liquid kind to not be so satisfying, you know cuz people buy more when they're still hungry, And when people buy more, Soylent earns more.
They are only like 200 calories so it’s no surprise it’s not filling
Huel was my fave for a while.
But even having it twice a day (breakfast + Lunch) I maintained weight but felt forever hungry. So it was kinda shit.
Also if you didn't clean the flask straight after it turned into a biological warfare weapon.
Oh and the backend result was not pleasant. Lots of gas and floaty cauliflower shit.
