Software engineer Rob Rhinehart says he chose the name Soylent, with its morbid associations, to pique curiosity and deeper investigation, since the name was clearly not chosen with a traditionally "flashy" marketing scheme in mind.

Soylent is named after a food in the 1973 film Soylent Green, in which the eponymous food is made from human remains.

Rhinehart viewed food as a time-consuming hassle and resolved to treat it as an engineering problem. He purchased 35 chemical ingredients — including potassium gluconate, calcium carbonate, monosodium phosphate, maltodextrin, olive oil — all of which he deemed to be necessary for survival, based on his readings of biochemistry textbooks and U.S. government websites. He blended the ingredients with water and consumed only this drink for the next thirty days. Over the course of the next two months, he adjusted the proportions of the ingredients and refined the formula.

Rhinehart claimed a host of health benefits from the drink and noted that it had greatly reduced his monthly food bill, which fell from about US$470 to $50.

Soylent's website displays the Proposition 65 warning required by California.

Soylent contains levels of lead and cadmium below the national safety levels set by the FDA, but it does contain 12 to 25 times the level of lead and 4 times the level of cadmium allowable in a product without additional labeling as specified by Proposition 65.

As Soylent is marketed as a complete meal replacement, many customers consume the drinks three times a day. These levels may be harmful. Lead is a neurotoxin that accumulates in soft tissues and bones, and even at low levels is linked to nerve damage, lower IQ, and reproductive problems including decreased sperm count. Cadmium is also a toxic heavy metal and has been linked to kidney, liver, and bone damage.

From the Soylent FAQ: Can I give Soylent to my child?

Answer: While no ingredient in Soylent is dangerous to children, . . . we can not recommend that any child use Soylent as a significant part of their diet.
