[@woodenmetal2977]

I've had 9 bags of Huel Hot and Savory so far (over the course of 3 months) and I'm quite satisfied with it. At first, I only ate one scoop as a snack in between meals. But eventually, it became my go-to breakfast option when I finally got used to the flavor - it does take some getting used to. Sometimes I eat a full meal of it for lunch and dinner when I'm just too lazy to actually cook something. 400 cals + a cup of orange juice, and I'm satisfied. My favorite flavors are tomato & herb, and sweet & sour.

[@HuelYT]

Our products are made in GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) certified facilities where the cleaning and hygiene standards are audited by an external body on an annual basis. In order to achieve this level of accreditation, these factories must meet all the requirements all year round. To add to this, production lines are cleaned on a regular basis, and depending on the types of product and ingredients being used on the line, they are also routinely inspected and swabbed for hygiene and cross-contamination markers 🛁

[@Koutsimouka]

I worked for a big pharmaceutical company making pills etc and trust me, they are highly clean inside and no messing about when it comes to hygiene

It really all depends on your current weight and how many calories you'd need to consume! If you're looking to gain muscle mass, you'd need to eat at a caloric surplus. That means that you'd have to consume more calories than your body burns. One Huel meal contains 400kcal, which makes it extremely easy to count your calories 😊 You can find a fantastic guide on weight gain right here: uk.huel.com/pages/huel-guide-to-gaining-weight

[@salemgelidi3266]

i hear it contains a not inconsiderate amount of flaxseed, which is linked to oestrogen increase (and thus testosterone decrease)

[@HuelYT]

Phytoestrogens are plant-derived compounds similar in structure to the hormone oestrogen; they may also have similar effects on the body to that of oestrogen if consumed in large enough amounts. However, the proportion to which phytoestrogens affect the body and hormones, especially testosterone, have been highly inflated. So whilst phytoestrogens may act like natural oestrogen, they will only do so in large amounts and their ability to affect testosterone levels are limited, at best (www.pcrm.org/health/cancer-resources/ask/ask-the-expert-soy)
