frequently asked questions
a combination of complete plant-based protein, slow burning carbs, healthy fats, and a variety of micronutrients are all essential nutrients that our body cannot produce and we must get them through our diet. Soylent products can be classified as a “complete meal” or "complete nutrition" because they contain all 39 essential nutrients.
our favorite way to get the best taste and texture is using a blender and chilling for 20 minutes before enjoying it. however, using a shaker bottle works really well too!

1. mix. for an 8oz serving, mix ½ cup (60g) of Soylent with 1 cup of water. for a 12oz serving, mix ⅔ cup (90g) of Soylent with 1½ cup of water. each scoop of powder is approximately ⅓ cup, if you’re using a Soylent scoop. for exact measurements, use a scale and measure by weight.
2. shake. use a shaker bottle or blender. prepare with ice or chill before serving.
3. drink and enjoy! store any unfinished, mixed Soylent in the fridge. consume within two days.
the only difference between Soylent powder pouches and Soylent powder tubs is the volume of powder – there are 12 meals in 1 tub, while 1 case of Soylent Powder pouches contains 35 total meals. there is no difference in the powder formula.
Soylent that is unopened can be stored at room temperature with a shelf-life of up to one year. while most users choose to refrigerate their Soylent before enjoying it, it isn’t required.

heat should not cause Soylent to spoil, however, if temperatures go above 110 degrees the vitamins & nutrients may begin to break down over time.

the "best by" date listed on your Soylent is not an expiration date but rather the date where we have data for best taste and texture quality. consuming our product after the “best by” date should not pose a food safety concern.
we use soy protein isolate in our formulas because it’s an excellent source of high-quality, plant-based protein! soy is also a complete source of protein, which means it contains all the essential amino acids needed for healthy, functioning bodies. soy has many health benefits including helping to lower the glycemic index of our product, higher digestibility, not to mention it provides a smoother texture when consumed and is more sustainable for the environment. you can read more about why we use soy protein by visiting our blog!
Soylent was not designed as a weight management tool, however many people incorporate Soylent into their diets for any number of weight management reasons. Soylent should simply be looked at as a 400 calorie complete meal that provides you with the nutrition you need in any easily measurable and convenient format.

every person’s nutritional requirements are different, and Soylent has been designed to represent roughly 20% of a 2000 calorie diet as laid out for the average person by the FDA. for more information on a healthy diet, please consult a professional such as a registered dietician or your doctor.
Soylent drinks and powders are manufactured in the United States. our complete snack bars are produced in Canada.

all of our facilities are GMP certified and regulated by the FDA.
members of the Soylent community frequently enjoy adding additional ingredients to their Soylent powder. a few ideas include:

- extra fiber
- creatine
- fruit
- collagen
- yogurt
- spices/seasonings

Reviews Summary
Customers say this powder is convenient, filling, and tastes good—with many praising its neutral or chocolate flavor and easy preparation. Long-term users appreciate its consistent nutrition and use it for quick breakfasts or busy workdays. Common feedback highlights that it mixes well and satisfies hunger for hours. However, some recent batches are noticeably sweeter than before, requiring extra water or milk to enjoy. A few mention it doesn't dissolve as smoothly as previously. Many reviews note frustration with extended stock shortages over the past 18 months, making the product difficult to purchase despite strong loyalty to the brand itself.

    Soylent is the best plant based meal and protein powder

    I've been a Soylent fan since 2016, I was curious about Soylent when I was searching for plant based protein powder and I was totally won over after reading their science behind their various ingredient choices. I loved both the original and the chocolate flavors but sticking with chocolate for now.

    My only feedback to Soylent is many times in the past 2 years the powders were out of stock. If you can solve the availability problem and have the meal powder available all year that would be awesome.

    Unlike other brands which blindly avoid soy, Soylent scientifically researched Soy and dispel the various myths (spread by the factory farming industries)

    https://soylent.com/blogs/news/the-soy-in-soylent-why-we-only-rely-on-soybean-protein

    The above article by Soylent explains scientifically

    * Why Soy is nature's best plant-based complete protein

    * Why plant-based estrogen is actually harmless.

    * Why GMO when done the right way is a good thing for the planet.

    The perfect easy option

    Tired of meal prep? Want to always have something easy on hand that you don’t have to think about? Soylent takes the guess work out of counting calories, takes the work out of preparing meals, and is cheaper than keeping the fridge full of groceries. You don’t need to eat it for every meal - just have something easy on hand for the days you don’t want to worry about it.

    Convenient and Affordable

    The Soylent meal powder has made meal planning so much easier, being able to pull together a full bottle of nutrition in just a few minutes (for very little price per serving) has been a life saver.
