Save money and live heathy
Huel is many things, depending on who you ask. Ask fitness fans and they'll tell you it's a kind of protein shake. Ask health fans and they'll tell you it's a meal replacement powder. Ask people who need to be factually accurate all the time, and they'll tell you it's actually the name of the company that makes products including Huel Powder, not the name of the powder itself, despite colloquially having derived that name.
Now I'm admittedly not a fitness expert, a financial guru, or a dietician, so don't expect these insights to be the wisdom of the oracles. But Huel isn't solely designed for that kind of user - in fact, I'd say I'm its target audience. So hopefully my story can act as a guide.Ordering Huel is pretty easy - it's an online-first brand after all, with a website designed to funnel you into making your first order.
When the bags arrived, along with a shaker, two scoops and a free T-shirt, my first impression was annoyance at how soft the tee felt. I'd made enough snide remarks about people wearing these in public that I'd resigned myself to a fate of never wearing it around people, no matter how nice it felt. Obviously, I changed my mind - I'd just spent lots of money on over 30-meals worth of Huel that I still needed to get through. Also, TechRadar's fitness editor asked me to write a feature about my experience if I managed it for a month. So I labored on.I love cooking, and trying to incorporate new ingredients into my dishes is one of my favorite challenges.
When I'm working in TechRadar's office, my lunch is generally the £3.50 meal deal from our local shop . But when that lunch is Huel - £1.50 per meal, remember - I'm saving about £6 each week. That's enough for... one whole pint of beer in London. Nice. Meals that I cook also last a lot longer, now that I'm not eating leftovers for lunch as well as dinners. Spending more prep time on them doesn't feel as much like a waste when I don't need to repeat it every day.
When I've suggested Huel to people, they've typically told me"oh no, I like cooking too much to consider substitutes like that" . But Huel has actually helped me focus more on what I eat and what I cook.
