Q CAN IT BE A SOLE SOURCE OF NUTRITION? Q HOW DOES IT TASTE? Each flavour is different. We offer a vanilla flavour and unflavoured/ unsweetened flavour - both of which are designed to work with our specially designed flavour systems (chocolate, banana, rhubarb & custard, toffee, strawberry, pineapple & coconut, mocha). Yes - you can live off Huel 100% as it contains all the essential nutrients you need to lead a healthy balanced diet. However, we don’t believe this is the best use. It’s important not to be restrictive in your diet; Huel is not a meal replacement, but rather a meal alternative. Q WHAT MAKES HUEL DIFFERENT? Huel is food in powdered form and it’s based on six main natural ingredients: oats, peas, brown rice, flaxseeds, sunflower oil and coconut oil and meets requirements for all nutrients at 2,000 calories. To obtain a diet of nutritional quality equal to this, you’d have to plan your foods very carefully and this is time-consuming. HUEL IS MANUFACTURED IN THE UK AND CAN BE BOUGHT ONLINE AT WWW.HUEL.COM. Prices range from £1.34 to £1.61 per meal, depending on how much you purchase in one transaction and if you subscribe to a recurring order.
