What's changing in the Huel Complete Protein recipe

The Huel Complete Protein recipe improvements include:

  • Improved texture and flavor — upgraded pea and brown rice proteins for a smoother, creamier shake

  • Bolder flavors across the range — richer Chocolate Fudge Brownie, creamier Vanilla, and a punchier Strawberry

Nutrition varies by flavor. Every serving of the updated Huel Complete Protein is still nutritionally complete.
