I'm a truly awful cook, and hate anything domestic, when I'm out I love good healthy food but the culinary art leaves me cold. If you get the same alertness stuff from a healthy fish, veg, fruit diet, thats good enough for me. My mate always used to say he was breaded up, and I know what he means. A girl at work calls bread empty calories as it doesn't fill you and you tend to do evil things like put butter or toast cheese on it. I think the sleep thing, and the resultant morning energy is your body not having to work overtime digesting. I've heard of people getting constipated on this stuff (God knows how) but have found the opposite, I think people underestimate the importance of an efficient bowel tbh in overall wellbeing. Adding up how much I've saved by stopping grazing was a huge surprise probably up some days by four to five quid which on my meagre salary helps.
I find it quite good as a supplement but on its own I can't handle that much of it. I often blend a shake with water, yoghurt, some fruit and a scoop of Huel and have that for breakfast and that works well for me.
In terms of the alertness stuff - I get the same effect if I live on fruit/vegetables/fish and severely limit my bread/potato/pasta/rice intake, so I don't think it's Huel that's good so much as stodge that's bad.
