- Hey guys, Greetings from afar!
I've been on the move recently and have been taking by two bags of Huel along for the ride.
If you've ever wonder what Huel is made of or if it's good for you, this is definitely the video for you!
It's an unsponsored review of what I noticed while drinking Huel everyday for several weeks… as well as my other thoughts of Huel products like the Huel bars and ready-to-drink shakes.
Mich love and enjoy :)

I love Huel too, and eat the white version mixed with (cow) milk as a supplement to my meals. I've never actually tried it with water.
I noticed my nails changed colour along with getting stronger too. It started near the nail bed and moved to the tip over the course of a month or two.. was not expecting that.
I also had a reduction in cravings, and after the first week or so began to love the taste. (not bad at first, but it took a bit of getting used to.)
The flavours can be quite subtle, but they are all pretty nice. Berry and the Coffee are probably my favourites.
My recent blood work showed a massive improvement in almost every respect, I credit Huel as a large factor in this. I went from ok/good to near ideal.
Also you are far braver than I am taking bags of white powder through customs!
It's great to see you recording in Korea! I recently staryed t follow toue channel and it's full of great self-care contents. I hope enjoyed your time in Korea, especially the mountains!❤
I like your grounded girl energy for this review.
Most reviews are trying complete replacements instead of supplementing a diet.
Thanks.
Hmmmm this is very intriguing! Nice thorough review. I was thinking about having it for camping and then you mentioned backpacking. I’m always looking for foods that are easy to prepare, taste good, and are filling and nutritious because I don’t always have a lot of time/energy to spend cooking.
I think it would be PERFECT for camping!! 🔥I tried making hot chocolate with the chocolate Huel… it’s semi-passable…..
haha
Pro tip is to add it to room temp water for best mixing experience!
I tried it camping, it works. They're savory meals are even better for camping. It's essentially a balanced soup mix. The Mac & Cheese is good and I like the curries.
I traveled for work often and didn’t have access to a microwave during the day. It works very well for that use
I always liked drinking any kind of powdered drink with room temperature water. I know it probably isn't ideal for satisfying thirst if you're hot/been working out. But I usually am in an inside environment and found that it goes down SO much faster if it's room temperature. Also mixes better than with a cold drink
Thanks! My day at work is over when I'm done (not at a particular time) so I often skip lunch, which is a terrible habit and I end up HANGRY. Going to try this instead!
i drink a protein shake and smoothie every morning instead of regular breakfast. i then have an orange and some eggs later on. as a mum, its just easier, plus sometimes kiddo is cheeky and takes a sip. lol.
Just tried my roommate's Huel. It tastes great! Thank you :)
I go through periods of living on the hot and savoury Huel, 2 meals a day, sometimes with rice or cheese on top depending on what flavour I’m having. Great for weight loss and just easy and tasty. I avoid the pasta ones as I’m not great with gluten but the others are great ❤
Thanks for sharing-I’ve never tried their hot meals! I continue to use their black edition and I am genuinely surprised how much I like the way I feel on it! 🤍✨
@@TheScienceofSelfCare you should give it a go. I had Madras last night with some rice, it's really tasty and pretty spicy. The Korma is another of my faves ❤️
I started using HUEL nearly three years ago during the COVID-19 Pandemic. They were selling it for an amazing deal. I normally mix mine with a banana 🍌, ice chips, strawberries, and some almond milk 😋
ayy a fellow hueligan 🎉 it was especially useful when I was on a bike tour for a week and still wanted to eat healthy. I really like the vanilla and cinnamon flavours
Sounds like a great use case! 🚴 I have yet to try vanilla; I also love cinnamon ☺️✨
Would you consider trying Tailwind and letting us know what you think?
I looked at HUEL also but I found that nutritional yeast was a better and cheaper option to augment a regular diet. But I think in a situation like you traveling or you couldn't get a proper meal in for whatever reason, it could fill in nutritional gaps. So I think it's more of a niche product IMHO than actual meal replacement.
Nice! I definitely plan to focus on other sources of nutrients when I’m back home. I think other uses cases could be: parents who need to feed their very picky children, people with jobs that don’t allow much time for food (like medical residents).
Ps: nutritional yeast + garlic salt + hemp seeds is a favorite trio👌
Please share your skincare routine 🙏
I’ve added your video suggestion to the list! Thanks for sharing. I’m enjoying several Korean skincare products at the moment. :)
@@TheScienceofSelfCare thank you 💗
I mix Huel with frozen bananas and it tastes so much better. One frozen banana, 18 oz water, blend in a mixer for 30 seconds, and I'm done.
That sounds really good! I have been making various berry smoothies with the unflavored one, haven’t yet tried banana! Recently I’ve also been adding a scoop of the chocolate one to oatmeal; it’s also quite nice! Huel powder is much more versatile than marketed.
@@TheScienceofSelfCare yeah, there's a pretty good community around it. If you end up buying again, I recommend the salted caramel or coffee caramel if you want a little caffeine.
Frozen bananas....Now that's interesting. I volunteer often at charity rides and bananas are always leftover. I've gone on crusade a dozen times trying to save the bananas.....banana bread, milkshakes day and night......mostly I put them out for the raccoons who refuse to pay rent. This could be a solution. tHanks for the tip!
How do we get in touch if we want you to try something related to the subjects you focus on? You don't seem to have an IG link in your profile either otherwise would send a DM there.
Hey! Thanks for your question.
I do have an Instagram associated to my channel: @science.of.selfcare
You’re also able to message me through UA-cam, I believe. Companies do that all the time. 😊

Do you have a vlog channel? Please do some vlogs in Korea!
I do not! ❤️ But I have so much traveling coming up and could definitely try to make some more vlog style videos. What specific things would you love to see?
@@TheScienceofSelfCare pretty much anything...food, fun and travels...thanks!
Huel has seed oils in it
Great info. . . I make my own DRINK that i consume during the day. . . No breakfast. . . A hand full of nuts for lunch, walnuts or cashews.. . . And like you a like cooking my dinner myself. . . I'm a bio-hacker , and have been doing this for almost 25 years now. I hope you'll take my advice when I tell you, unless you live iin Antarctica, you NEED to get some sun. I've know women like you my whole life who are afraid of the sun. I know all the excuses by heart, so i won't list them here. If you take care of your skin from the inside out, you'll do just fine in the sun. STAY HYDRATED, drink half you body weight in ounce's a day. Never tap water, preferably glass bottled springs water, like a pelagrino.. . . Extra vitamin C, you can not make collagen (what your skin is made off) with out vitamin C. period. YOU NEED CHOLESTEROL. . . Your cell membranes are made of it. . . Successful mitosis is contingent on it, your brain is also half CHOLESTEROL and half water, relatively speaking. Grass fed dairy is a must for this. True free ranch chicken eggs as well. Also coconut oil, avocados and a good olive oil. Also add vitamin k2 with cod liver oil.. (see Dr Kate Rhume Bleue) . . Broccoli sprouts extract & apricot seeds. . . They 100 % mitigate cancer. . . IE, the sun doesn't cause cancer, your poor health does. . . So when you are unhealthy, yes the sun can hurt you. I've seen so many women who have gotten little to no sun, and are health nuts (the worst are vegans) and after 10 to 20 years they look so unhealthy, their skin is sickly looking, more wrinkled and splotchey.. . Granted, if they got a lot of sun and didn't follow the list I gave, their skin suffered as well. BUT those that got lots of sun, and followed these protocols, like myself, they looked so much more healthy, and looked 10 to 12 years younger than they actually were. Bottom line, you definitely are avoiding the sun. You not only look unhealthy. But you actually are.
Hey Frederick, thanks for this interesting take!! I could probably use a little more sun based on my Dutch paleness ;) Though I burn very easily and have already had to have a pre-cancerous mole removed from my back. So for now, I try to wear high SPF and stay in the shade while supplementing heavily with Vitamin D3.
The sun can absolutely give you cancer. There is a wealth of peer-reviewed scientific evidence to support this. It is highly irresponsible to suggest otherwise.
Especially If you are pale skinned. Sun damage can happen quickly and can massively increase your risk of skin cancers and premature aging.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with having pale skin, and the trend to change it by sunbathing to make it browner is idiotic.
Soy oil a very inflammatory oil. Otherwise looks good.

Any thoughts how Huel compares to 310 Nutrition?
310 Nutrition looks interesting with their fiber/superfood blend. I have food sensitivities for certain things in there (like goji berries) so I personally wouldn’t choose it over Huel Black. Sometimes less is more with powder mixes. But others might like that ingredient variety!
I also prefer the Huel Black macro breakdown. Seems more balanced with a tad more fat (omega 3s from flax seeds are a plus in my book). If you’re going for more of a protein powder, 310 packs 15% more protein.
All up to personal preference. ☺️
Macro ratios:
Huel Black Edition (Chocolate)
21% fat 30% carbs 49% protein
310 Nutrition (Vanilla Cake)
10% fat 26% carbs 64% protein
We’re supposed to believe that she found three bags of huel randomly
Two and yes. This was a communal house and a previous tenant had left them behind.. abandoned!!! :)
@@TheScienceofSelfCare wow my bad I thought you said three but that’s some crazy luck cause I’ve never even met someone that’s knows what huel is personally. have you continued using huel since? I just ordered the Daily super blend that’s why I sought out videos about huel but no one has reviewed that one yet.
@@BrandonAndretti402hahaha no worries-indeed. I am still a “hueligan” as they say.
I never meant to become one but I feel so good when I incorporate Huel into my diet. Haven’t tried their greens yet because it contains ashwaghanda which doesn’t agree with me unfortunately. But otherwise I definitely would try! Looks promising.
I've been watching your previous videos and noticed you were experimenting with light therapy. We have a cheap alternative with 7 wavelengths that you might be interested in trying out. If your interested let me know how I can contact you 😃
Hey Lumilta, thanks for the comment! I’m indeed a big fan of light therapy and had a look at your website.
As a consumer of light therapy products, I wanted to share some feedback that might be helpful: I haven’t been able to find any information on the 7 wavelengths you use. I would suggest including this in your product info because it’s quite an important communications point to develop trust and legitimacy with potential customers-especially as a cheaper alternative. :)
@@TheScienceofSelfCare Thanks so much for the feedback I really appreciate it. I'm definitely going to put this information on the website.
Hmmmm interesting
Honestly your adorable, and very intriguing to listen to. Your husband's lucky😉

Tried Soylent many years ago. Hated it. May still have some unused somewhere here 😂
@@stevevuoso8411 haha expired Soylent is even too much for me. 😅 there are so many of these brands.. Jimmy Joy.. yfood!
One of them cons where they’re pushing for profit margins to pay “influencers” to push their product to poorly informed people
I was not paid for any of this! haha
These are my genuine thoughts about two expired bags I found in a student house :)
just finding bag randomly? CAP!
huel gave me a GI problem and I have to stop. That's the worst issue I have ever needed to deal with. Stay away from it.
I kind of suspect the same. Breaking out too. I can’t say for sure it was the huel but now I’ve stopped the huel and my skin and gut have gone back to normal
Huel is one of the worst things you can eat. Read Ultra Processed People by Chris van Tulleken.
Lmao lol 😂
Have you actually read the book yourself? Huel is processed but not ultra processed. The term "processed" in nutrition is nuanced as almost anything can be considered processed. Cutting up an apple, roasting seeds, cooking rice, making tea.
@AdAstraLabs you obviously haven't read it, or you'd know Huel is upf and a massive con. It's no better than a pot noodle.
@@AdAstraLabs huel black contains stabilisers so it’s definitely UPF
You're the type to freak out about chemicals like dihydrogen monoxide aren't you.
