Shakes versus food: a pragmatic assessment Writing it up because I had to work it out twice and would rather nobody else did.
I would like to know what people here actually do about shakes versus food, as distinct from what is usually recommended. Those have diverged in every other subject I have looked at closely.
Mine is below, with the reasoning, including the parts I am not confident about.
Nothing here is medical or dietetic advice, and a dietitian is the professional this subcategory most often recommends.
Worth checking against a second source before it gets quoted onward.
An honest declaration on shakes versus food: I have a prior here and it is strong enough that you should weight what I say downward. Stating it rather than hiding it.
That is the distinction I keep failing to hold on to. Written down now.
Noted, and I have changed what I was going to do on the strength of it.
