While I do agree that Soylent uses mostly off-the-shelf ingredients, and I most likely won't die from eating Soylent, I still think that there is a danger that might be addressed by a clinical study. I think you conflate health and safety. There is a difference between something dangerous and something unhealthy. I've been arguing about the potential dangers of the substances, not about the healthiness of the ingredients. Of course it's healthy, that's the whole point of Soylent. But that doesn't mean it's necessarily safe. I don't think that. Where did I say that?I understand your concern, but it's fairly obvious that it's safe, and assuredly better than most people's diets.
If you seriously think that living off twinkies, coca-cola, and ramen is better than soylent, there's something wrong with your picture of nutrition
