Used following as base recipe. Dropped calories and upped iron intake. https://www.completefoods.co/diy/recipes/simple-healthy-vegan-soylent-v15
Removed Maltodextrin and Palintose because they're mostly filler calories. They did have the advantage of smoothing out the energy release rate from this food so may experience more lethargy or energy spikes.
Added Magnesium and Chromium because quantity of food too low to get enough.
Calories are low. From a physical health perspective, this is fine. Mentally - you will probably experience lethargy, mood swings, trouble thinking. Normal grumpy diet person stuff. These may all last for a long time. The higher the deficit the more pronounced it will be. There is less energy going to your brain, so this is all normal.
There are are some tricks to the attenuate the challenges above and I've tried to incorporate them into the recipe. Honestly, they'll probably only help a little and you'll have to tough it out.
