Huel, which previously introduced meal-supplementing products in a powdered format, is now introducing two ready-to-drink meal replacements in berry and vanilla flavors. According to Huel, the drinkable meal replacements contain "all 27 essential vitamins and minerals, carbohydrates, protein, fat, fiber and phytonutrients" and are packed with 20 grams of plant-based protein.
The time-saving, nutrient-dense products are vegan-friendly and are useful for sustaining one's energy throughout the day, thanks to low-GI, slow-release carbohydrates. Some of the ingredients that go into the making of the products include oats, tapioca starch, pea protein, brown rice flour and flaxseed.
Huel's ready-to-drink meal replacements are free from GMO ingredients, soya, gluten, and animal products. The brand's bottles are 100% recyclable and are made with 25% recycled plastic, as part of its commitment to increase the use of recycled plastic and bioplastic.
