Immune Support

In every serving of Huel Black Edition Powder, there are immune supporting nutrients to keep your defenses strong.

1. Vitamin C

A versatile immune supporter.

Vitamin C is an all-rounder when it comes to immune support. It acts as a powerful antioxidant to neutralize free radicals, supports white blood cell function, and aids the generation of antibodies, both key elements in the immune response to pathogens. Vitamin C also aids in the synthesis of collagen, maintaining the integrity of the skin, which is a first line of defense against pathogens entering the body.

Every serving of Huel Black Edition Powder is high in vitamin C.

2. Vitamin A

Helps with the proper functioning of immune cells.

Vitamin A helps with the proper functioning of various immune cells such as white blood cells (the ‘defenders’ of our body’s immune system), that support immune health by modulating our inflammatory response, promotes antibody production and acts as an antioxidant.

Every serving of Huel Black Edition Powder is a good source of vitamin A.

Energy Metabolism

Metabolism is the process by which energy stored in nutrients like carbohydrates, fats, and protein are converted into a usable form for the body. Huel Black Edition Powder is a source of key micronutrients that contribute to metabolic functioning.

1. Biotin

Supports macronutrient metabolism.

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, plays a crucial role in supporting macronutrient metabolism, specifically of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Biotin helps to break down each macronutrient into its subcomponents by activating particular enzymes involved in the process. For example, breaking down carbohydrates into glucose that can then be used as a primary source of energy by the body.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is high in biotin.

2. Pantothenic acid (or vitamin B5)

Helps with proper functioning healthy metabolism.

Pantothenic acid is involved in the energy-yielding metabolic process by being a component of coenzyme A (CoA). CoA plays a crucial role in the body’s primary catabolic pathway (the citric acid cycle) and is essential in breaking down carbohydrates, amino acids, and lipids.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is a source of pantothenic acid.

Skin, Hair, and Nails

Maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails is not only about appearance but also reflects overall well-being. Huel Black Edition Powder contains key micronutrients that are involved in keeping your skin, hair, and nails in tip-top condition.

1. Zinc

For healthy skin, hair, and nails.

Zinc is an essential mineral that can support skin health by promoting proper wound healing and supports the integrity of the skin barrier. It also has inflammatory properties which can help reduce skin irritation and redness associated with certain skin conditions. Zinc is involved in the synthesis of keratin, the primary protein that makes up hair, and plays a role in the proper growth of nail cells, supporting the formation of the nail plate.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is high in zinc.

Muscle Function

Huel Black Edition Powder is here to support your muscles with essential nutrients that contribute to the maintenance of normal muscle function and overall health.

1. Protein

Supports the maintenance and growth of muscle mass.

Protein plays a fundamental role in muscle function through various mechanisms such as providing the structure to muscle tissue, allowing them to contract and generate force. Protein is also vital for repair and growth of muscle tissue that can become damaged, particularly after strenuous resistance exercise. When protein is consumed, the body breaks it down into amino acids which are the building blocks of proteins used to repair and build new tissue.

Huel Black Edition Powder is high in protein providing 40g per serve.

2. Calcium

Assists in promoting normal muscle function.

Calcium plays a crucial role in supporting muscle function by aiding in muscle contractions.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is a source of calcium.

Digestive Support

Enhancing your digestion and promoting a healthier gut can be supported with key micronutrients found in every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder.

1. Calcium

Contributes to the normal function of digestive enzymes.

Calcium plays a lesser-known role in supporting digestive enzymes, serving as a co-factor. It is essential for the efficient functioning of key digestive enzymes, ensuring effective breakdown and absorption of nutrients in the digestive process. Without it, these enzymes may not work efficiently.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is a good source of calcium.

2. Chloride

Helps produce stomach acid.

Chloride supports digestion by combining with hydrogen to form hydrochloric acid, or stomach acid. This acid creates the acidic environment necessary for the activation of digestive enzymes and the breakdown of food, particularly proteins.

Every serve of Huel Black Edition Powder is a source of chloride.
