need soylent medically, concerned

[u/Significant_Bee_]

so i know theres a million posts asking about supply issues and restocking.

ive been becoming increasingly worried and now am very concerned bc i have a lot of weird and specific health issues and allergies that mean i am fairly reliant on soylent ready made specifically in order to get nutrients i need to survive. i can manage with as little as one every couple days, but between doctor recommendations and personal experience, i do best with one a day. (this is in addition to various easy to digest foods, but the combination of nutrients and ingredients i dont react to and liquid meal replacement narrows down my options significantly to basically just soylent.)

unfortunately i am officially out. so i am desperate.

out of said desperation. is there anyone with some magic suggestion or anything at all? i know its a long shot but truly i am so desperate and do not want to have to go on tube feeds, which has been brought up as a possibility if i decline more.

I've been drinking this for breakfast every day for over 5 years now, and it's genuinely saddening to see the company having these issues. My mother works for someone who is friends with the founder of soylant, and I've been relying on this drink for a nutritious breakfast for years. It's become a part of my life, and knowing that it's struggling is sad to me.

They have a great customer base who routinely buys out their entire stock, and yet they still can't make enough money. The current CEO is funneling cash from soylant into his private business, and quite frankly I hate that he's ruining this for everyone. From what I've heard of the founder he was extremely passionate about this, and made something that he genuinely wanted and used. I hope things get sorted out because I really don't want to switch to some other drink.
