everyone as in those ppl who work for this product or is it already distributed widely enough to have credibility?

if you have already made up your mind to take the risk,
you should probably be chewing gums very often, to not let your muscles and bones around your chin/mouth go weak.
after some time, youll most likely start craving to eat something, not just drinking. maybe eating normal meal at least once a day, or once every other day may help. unbalanced diet (no matter how balanced its chemical values are) always do harm somehow.
warn yourself enough to stop it whenever you start feeling weird.

in general, when eating normally, you can hardly over-take one substance, but it is very easy to do so when you take something as medicine/supplements or by drinking. one substance alone can be really harmful when some other substances are lacking. (i.e. isoflavone when lacking iodine; it wasnt known till very recently.) and im afraid there are still a lot of things not being discovered or even taken into consideration scientifically.

taking in only "good" things doesnt always make you healthy. humans need to take in oxygen - which at the same time hurts our cells - to live.

It's been "widely" tested.

On another note, you're probably going to be hungry all the time, since the body doesn't have anything in it to break down. I would guess it works the same as IV drop? and you're always hungry when you're on IV :cry:

It also has the potential to help tremendously in the world hunger crisis
By importing Brown Rice proteins to the US by plane ... ?!? :o

As long all the ingredients and where they are imported from aren't known it's just another one of those "oh we have a great business idea" blablas which sure finds it's customers ... the biggest problem with all those "drink'a'meal" products is that they can't do for their customers what doctors or nutritionists can do for them: individually and medically founded ...

Well i guess when you're a young person that keeps it's body in shape and isn't sitting all day in front of monitors it won't do no harm if taken for a short while ...

Another one retarded kickstarter. Appeals to liberal "muh feelings" about 50% food wasted and starving chimps in Third World, they offer you some goo without fibers, so you could fuck up your guts while paying money.

It's bullshit
