I once drank soylent before going partying, and I didn’t have to use the bathroom at all.
That was really good because taking off my outfit to use the bathroom sucks.
Building upon that, if I just kept drinking soylent, I could party non-stop without bathroom breaks.
So how many days can my digestive system, and body, handle being on a soylent only diet?
Will my guts atrophy?
The definition of soylent is that it contains all nutrients you need. What’s the multivitamin pill for?
I think the definition is a food product made from a combination of soy and lentils. Some variations are “nutritionally complete” others are not.
The fictional version of it is apparently named after soy and lent (the religious fasting thing, I guess), TIL. But the real-world version literally has meal replacement in the Wikipedia page title. Was looking for a reference from the creator stating their goal but Wikipedia said unreferenced (at the time that I wrote the Dutch translation in 2014) that it’s supposed to be nutritionally complete. The English page was shortened considerably since then, dunno why but this part is gone. That’s how it started and was marketed though, so that’s what makes it that by definition in my mind. If they’ve strayed from their raison d’être, idk what they are anymore
In case you need more vitamins than are in Soylent. Soylent is a real world product, and it’s not right for everyone.
If you’re going to do a drastic diet change like this, you really should consult a doctor first, not Lemmy. (Talking to OP here.)
