They're usually more expensive than real food. You may as well make some boiled chicken since that'd give the same amount of protein for less.

>>134624

Sure but let's face it, living off shakes fucking sucks

>>134627

Check the CSV file, I saw some that cost only 9USD per day with all micro nutrients (even low carb or keto options are that cheap)

Why not just get soylent. Soy doesn’t do jack shit to healthy people.

>>134637

Because estrogens? This is supposed to be "nutritionally complete", "easy to prepare" and in some brands "cheap" and "low-carb /keto/paleo"

>>134632

Depends on where you live but I can get a complete 3 meals under 4 bucks where I live.

>>134637

Cause it and many meal replacement drinks contain soy protein which isn't as bioavalable as animal protein.

Are there any that don't come from questionable chink sources?

>>134711

The Australian and European ones, I bet. Definitely the poo-in-loos.

I'd rather eat dandelions and roadkill. Practically free, and not that bad if you cook it right. And it's not disgusting chocolate flavoured sewage.

>>134708

That's not how xenoestrogens work, it's not like you eat a block of tofu and suddenly you're getting HRT. If anything, a weaker estrogenic compound binding in the place of natural estrogen would decrease estrogenic effects.

Just eat real food its healthier, cheaper and tastes a million times better. Cook in large batches ahead of time to minimize cooking and cleaning time.

>>134734

What about portability and long-term storage? (For SHTF situations)

>>134637

t. Cosmo.

Keto-Chow is pretty good, and soy free.

>>134739

>SHTF situations

If were talking a long term situation where food is limited then a few packages of processed soy aren't going to save you. You need to basically have the means to produce your own food meaning at minimum a large vegetable garden and an animal protein source such as chickens/rabbits/goats/etc…

If were talking about short term situations such as natural disasters or riots theres still no need for these "nutritionally complete" garbage shakes. Assuming your diet is healthy pre SHTF a few days to a week is simply not enough time for you to become malnourished. You could simply not eat for this time and you'd be just fine.

You could also stockpile a small reserve of food that keeps for a long time and that you consume anyways so that you're constantly rotating stock. For example instead of buying the small bags of rice at the grocery go to the store that sells 50lb bags and get one of those. Do the same with oats, lentils, canned fish or whatever else you eat on a regular basis that will keep. Not only will you be prepared but you'll save a ton of money in the long run.

>what is canning

>what is aquaponics

>what is vacuum storage

>what is drying

holy shit have you guys never heard of hemp protein powder? it has all the fucking amino acids. you just put a scoop in the blender with some coco powder and raisins and water and you get the best chocolate protien shake in the world and a good dose of fiber too.

>>134765

>work nights at a tech company

>coworkers are all ex military and law enforcement

>company wide meeting today

>see people from other departments

>soyboys everywhere

I felt so out of place and I wanted to laugh. Fortunately, my department was streaming it in our office, so I went back there to chill instead.

What department?

>>134765

I expected you to say some shit about cannibalism with the image you posted.

>>134637

This, although I personally only really recommend as an alternative to just downing quick junk food when pressed for time.

I can't imagine how much it would suck to live completely off liquid meals.

>>134900

Fiber causes constipation.

>>134748

Try packing and dehydrating as well, see what happens. (The formula are all made of whey protein or """vegan""" sources, so "drying your own" is not a good idea)

>>134800

The soy-free alternatives are basically whey protein powder and vitamins.

>>134893

What if you don't have a safe house?

>>135015

You're a dumbass

>>134624

soy doesn't do anything, positive or negative, jesus christ you pseudoscientific breitbart retards

>>135295

Soy has phytestrogens, which are weaker estrogen compounds. Good if you're a woman with a risk of breast cancer since they help outcompete existing estrogen. Bad if you're a man since men don't have as much estrogen in the first place.

>>135295

One of the more extreme cases. https://www.menshealth.com/nutrition/soys-negative-effects

So these soy-free powdered alternatives… are they good as Bug-Out Food (no oils leaking out)?

>>134708

Phytoestrogen is basically inert estrogen, it's harmless

>>136395

You might want to fact-check it

>>137200

What about turning the banana into a powder? Then it would beat Soylent.

>>138790

You can do DIY soylent, there are recipes listed here: https://www.completefoods.co/diy/recipes

It's basically what this anon >>137200 does, a shake with proteins and some carbs, following ratios for complete meals.

>>134624

>getting all your calories from liquid

"no"

>>138815

America, FUCK YEAH.

>>134637

Soylent has 20g of FAT in it per bottle. Yes that is right, when you drink soylent you are taking TWO SHOTS of oil per bottle.

>>142107

Only in america is 100g of fat "low fat".

If you are eating more than 20g of fat per day you are going to run into serious acne and heart disease risks.

>>142109

This is disinfo. Look at how much fat is in the diet of Mediterraneans, Amish, native Americans, Russians, Tibetans (they drink 10-20 cups of yak butter tea to start their day FFS), Inuit…

>>142109

>If you are eating more than 20g of fat per day you are going to run into serious acne and heart disease risks.

(You)'re an idiot

>>142109

DURR MURICA FAT = DIETARY FAT

FAT KILLS DURRR OIL CLOGGED ARTERIES

HURRRRR

>>134632

>only 9USD per day

I can eat on a keto diet on 3 or 4 bucks a day. Even less if I ate more eggs.
