Huel Complete Nutrition Bar is a nutritionally complete snack that provides all the essential macronutrients, but is especially rich in both protein and fiber. Our bars also provide all 27 essential vitamins and minerals.
The Complete Nutrition Bar works to meet the HHS and USDA's Dietary Guidelines and Daily Value (DV) requirements for all macro- and micronutrients, and proportion them to provide what you need from a snack[1].
Carbohydrate in Huel Complete Nutrition Bars
The carbohydrates in Huel Complete Nutrition Bar mainly come from wheat, although smaller amounts are provided by other ingredients. Carbohydrates play an important role in providing us with energy. Macronutrients like fiber, protein and fat help to slow the digestion of carbohydrates, and therefore helps to create a slower, stable release of glucose into the blood rather than a “spike”.
Fats in Huel Complete Nutrition Bars: Flaxseed and Sunflower
The fats in Huel Complete Nutrition Bar are made up of cocoa, peanuts, flaxseed powder, and sunflower oil. There are two completely essential fatty acids (EFAs) that humans require: linoleic acid (LA – an omega-6 fatty acid) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA – an omega-3)[3]. By including flaxseed powder and sunflower oil, we’ve ensured Huel contains both EFAs as well as other omega-3 and -6 fatty acids. The two oils are also present to provide a functional benefit by binding the ingredients together.
Protein in Huel Complete Nutrition Bars: Rice and Pea
For healthy adults, the DRI recommends that 10-35% of calories should come from protein, or a minimum of 0.8g of protein per kg body weight per day[1]. The recommendation of 0.8g of protein per kg body weight per day is the recommendation to prevent deficiency. The Complete Nutrition bars are a protein rich snack, with 13-14g per bar. We combine plant based sources of protein to ensure Huel Essential Powder provides all of the essential amino acids, including BCAA's (Branched chain amino acids), which is important for maintaining a healthy body and building muscle. Furthermore, protein is more satiating (appetite suppressing) than other macronutrients[4].
Fiber in Huel Complete Nutrition Bars
The vast majority of Americans do not consume adequate amounts of fiber, with just 5% of the population meeting fiber intake recommendations[2]. The fiber in Huel Complete Nutrition Bar is predominantly soluble, and provides more fiber than most protein bars, with 6-7g per bar. Adequate fiber intake plays an important role in healthy gut function, maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, and can even aid in reducing the risk of developing chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes [5-7].
Using soluble fiber solutions is also one method of binding the bar in production. Fiber acts like a sponge, so it’s important to consume lots of water during the day[7].
Vitamins and Minerals in the Huel Complete Nutrition Bar
The majority of the vitamins and minerals (also known as micronutrients) in Huel Complete Nutrition Bars are from natural ingredients. We then use a micronutrient blend to fortify the product to ensure we are providing all the vitamins and minerals you need from a snack.
Although the US Daily Values (DV) provide an indication of how much of each micronutrient we require, there have been numerous studies demonstrating that, for many, higher intakes may be beneficial for health. For example, it’s widely considered that the amount of vitamin C we’re recommended to consume is too low[8,9], so we’ve added a high inclusion in the Huel Complete Nutrition Bar formula. The benefits of consuming more vitamin C include supporting our immune system, antioxidant properties and helps with the absorption of other minerals like iron, and it also helps the absorption of some minerals like iron and zinc [8-12].
Similarly for vitamin D, because it’s so important to health it has been included at a higher level per bar[13]. The type of vitamin D is vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, in a vegan-suitable form.
With some of the trace element minerals, the levels are far higher than the recommended amounts. This is because we only need tiny amounts of them, but the ingredients in the Huel Complete Nutrition Bar are a naturally rich source.
Summary – Huel Complete Nutrition Bar Provides Optimal Nutrition
Huel Complete Nutrition Bars are a complete and balanced source of macronutrients and micronutrients, and as such they have a superior nutritional profile to most conventional snacks. Unlike Huel Powder or Hot & Savoury, they should not be used as your sole source of nutrition, but they are perfect as a nutritionally complete snack to give you a boost of nutrition on the go.

Allergens: Peanuts are present in the Peanut Caramel flavor, and all other flavors may contain traces of nuts. Soy is also present in the Fudge Brownie, Dark Chocolate Raspberry, and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavors, and the other flavors may, therefore, contain traces of soy.
Diabetes mellitus: For those with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, please review the carbohydrate, sugar and other nutrition facts of the Huel Essential Powder to see if it is suitable for your needs. As with all food, if you're using medication to help control your diabetes you should structure your intake of Huel Complete Nutrition Bar appropriately.
Celiac disease: Huel Complete Nutrition Bar does contain wheat gluten, therefore is not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance.
Inborn errors of metabolism: If you have a glycogen storage disorder (GSD) or other inborn error of metabolism where you require dietary manipulation, you must consult your doctor or specialist clinician before consuming Huel Complete Nutrition Bar.
Inflammatory bowel disease: If you suffer from Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis or proctitis, and are experiencing a flare-up, we advise caution when consuming Huel Complete Nutrition Bar.

Children - Huel Complete Nutrition Bar is not suitable for children under 4 years of age. However, older children may include Huel Complete Nutrition Bar as a snack as part of a balanced diet that includes a variety of other foods, but Huel Complete Nutrition Bar should not be their sole source of nutrition as they have different nutritional requirements to adults. For more information please see our Children, Adolescents and Huel article.
Eating disorders - We recommend that individuals with eating disorders only use Huel Complete Nutrition Bar after discussing it with their doctor or relevant clinician.
Phenylketonuria (PKU): Huel Complete Nutrition Bar is not suitable for those who suffer from phenylketonuria (PKU).

Allergen Advice
We thoroughly assess our ingredients and the processes we use to make Huel and whenever we identify potential routes of allergen contamination we will first take steps to eliminate the possibility of any contamination of our product. However, where it is not possible to remove the risk we will clearly highlight any allergens that might be present on our product packaging in line with current US food safety guidelines.
However, we recognize that individuals can have allergens to any protein in any ingredient therefore if you have a specific allergy that is outside of the remit above, please contact us directly and we will do our best to guide you on which products are suitable.
