Recipe adjusted to US market.

Notes from base recipe:

Chromium data is sparse and the requirements aren't well known Niacin UL is just for supplementation Vitamin D, stand in the sun I guess. So far I've fallen into a routine of just two meals a day

Morning:

  • Shot of oil
  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Microwave potato (Just poke holes, put it on a plate, and press the potato button)
  • Microwave steamed carrot (Chopped approx 1cm x 2cm then steamed for 90 seconds)
  • Boiled eggs
  • Glass of Milk

Night:

  • Microwave steamed spinach (90 seconds)
  • Microwave steamed broccoli (3 minutes from frozen)
  • Oven roasted chicken
  • Glass of Milk

Anything that's microwaved I put a bit of salt on to taste.

And original recipe:

This is an experiment in using the level of quantitative analysis we do with soylent and applying it to real food to try to make a nutritionally complete healthy diet without supplementation. This diet is inspired by roughly what my diet consisted of pre-soylent, so I was curious as to what the actual in depth nutritional profile of it looked like.

I'm guessing any person would look at this and see it as a very, VERY, healthy diet. Some would even see this as too "extreme", note this has no seasoning or sauce to add flavour to the chicken/salmon/broccoli/spinach etc. There is a tiny bit of salt but only to get the chloride level up, without salt the sodium is already at the RDI.
