Huel Black Edition has a 17:40:40:3 Macro Split
The principle macronutrients that we obtain energy from food are carbohydrate, fat, protein and fibre, and in Huel Black Edition, we’ve set them at the ratio of 17:40:40:3 respectively; i.e. 17% of the energy comes from carbohydrate, while 40% comes from fat, 40% from protein and 3% from fibre.
Amino acids are the most basic units of protein, and several amino acids are essential for life, with others being crucial for good health, so any diet should include a significant amount of protein.
There are also fatty acids that are essential for life and good health, so including sources of fat is crucial too.
Carbohydrates, however, are not essential per se. Although carbs do have significant benefits to sustaining even energy levels, some people prefer to have a lower intake of carbs for some meals.
We’ve designed Huel Black Edition at ratios to suit people who are looking for more protein in a meal.
Carbohydrate in Huel Black Edition
Tapioca is a starch that comes from the roots of the cassava plant and we’ve used this as the primary carbohydrate source as it also provides a smooth, rounded mouthfeel. As Huel Black Edition contains no artificial sweeteners, we’ve used a small amount of organic coconut sugar to compliment the natural sweetener stevia to deliver a subtle sweet taste. The inclusion of coconut sugar is at a low level.
Fat in Huel Black Edition
The fats in Huel Black Edition are mainly derived from flaxseed and sunflower seeds to ensure that essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are in optimal ratios. We’ve also included medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) from coconut. MCTs are treated much like carbs, i.e. they provide an energy-rich, sustained fuel and are perfect for those of us with busy lifestyles [4]. In short, MCTs from coconut are a healthy and efficient source of energy. Read more about MCTs here.
Essential nutrients can not be made by the body so must be obtained from the diet. 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 fatty acid) [5]. Using a blend of flaxseed and sunflower oil powder, we’ve ensured Huel Black Edition contains sufficient amounts of both of these EFAs as well as other omega-3 and -6 fatty acids [6].
Huel Black Edition is High-Protein
The RI for protein is 50g per day, but this only covers our very basic needs and prevents protein deficiency [1,2,3]. Huel Black Edition is high in protein for those who desire a higher intake of protein for some meals. All essential amino acids(the building blocks of protein) are included in adequate amounts from two vegan protein sources: pea and brown rice protein. A reference intake of 2,000 calories would supply 200g of protein. This is an adequate amount for good health as well as building and maintaining muscle mass. Furthermore, protein is more satiating (filling) than other macronutrients [7].
Amino Acid Profile of Huel Black Edition
Protein is made up of amino acids. There are over 500 amino acids in nature, 20 of which are known as the standard amino acids, as these are the ones that are coded for genetically and are subsequently involved in primary protein synthesis in animals. Of these 20, nine are essential as they cannot be synthesised from other amino acids.
The nine essential amino acids are:
Histidine
Isoleucine
Leucine
Lysine
Methionine
Phenylalanine
Threonine
Tryptophan
Valine
The other 11 are:
Alanine
Arginine
Asparagine
Aspartic acid
Cysteine
Glutamine
Glutamic acid
Glycine
Proline
Serine
Tyrosine
All protein sources are not equal: some are classed as ‘complete proteins’ and some are not. A complete protein is one that contains sufficient quantities of all nine essential amino acids. Generally, proteins derived from animal foods are complete. Indeed, some proteins derived from plant foods are often complete as well; examples include quinoa, buckwheat and soya. Many plant foods have insufficient amounts or one or more of the essential amino acids.
Rice protein is high in the sulphur-containing amino acids cysteine and methionine, plus it contains good amounts of all the others, but is very low in lysine. Pea protein is low in cysteine and methionine but high in lysine. Combining ingredients ensures everything is covered whilst keeping Huel Black Edition plant-based. Plus there’s additional protein from the flaxseed.
Huel Black Edition is High-fibre
A serving of Huel Black Edition contains ~27% of the recommended daily amount of fibre. The fibre in Huel Black Edition is a mixture of soluble and insoluble forms and is naturally supplied by the food ingredients, primarily flaxseed. The high fibre content helps to ensure the formation of normal, solid stools, keeping everything running smoothly in healthy individuals [8].
Fibre acts like a sponge, so it’s important to consume plenty of water when using Huel Black Edition [9]. The Huel Black Edition formula supports a healthy digestive system.
Vitamins and Minerals in Huel Black Edition
A bulk of the vitamins and minerals – also known as micronutrients – in Huel Black Edition are from natural ingredients. There have been numerous studies in the past 20 years demonstrating that, for many micronutrients, levels higher than the daily reference intakes (RIs) may have beneficial effects to health.
For example, it’s widely considered that the amount of vitamin C we’re recommended to consume is too low [10,11,12], so we've reflected this in the Black Edition formula. Benefits of consuming more vitamin C include a healthy immune system, healthy skin and antioxidant properties [11,12,13].
With some of the trace elements, the levels are far higher than the recommended amounts. This is because we only need tiny amounts of them, but the natural ingredients in Huel Black Edition are a rich source.
Choline is a conditionally essential B vitamin, and although, strictly speaking, it can be synthesised in our bodies, it’s more efficient to obtain it from our diets [14]. It’s of particular importance post menopause [15,16]. As Huel Black Edition is all about optimum health, the inclusion of choline was felt to be fundamental.
There has been some concern about phytic acid: a naturally occurring substance in plant foods like flaxseed. Phytic acid can chelate (bind to) some minerals, meaning that they are less bioavailable [17]. As flaxseed is a large contributor to the nutrition of Huel Black Edition, we've ensured that there are adequate levels of some minerals, like iron and zinc, to accommodate any issues with phytic acid chelation. The high level of vitamin C in Huel Black Edition further promotes iron absorption [18].
Phytonutrients & Probiotics in Huel Black Edition
Phytonutrients are substances found in plant foods which, whilst not essential, may exhibit some health benefits like disease risk prevention [19]. Junk food diets are often deficient in phytonutrients, and thus consumers miss out on invaluable health benefits and antioxidant effects.
Huel Black Edition’s fundamental ingredients are plant-based foods, which are already phytonutrient-rich. Additionally, we've also added some extra phytonutrients to optimise the Huel Black Edition formula and to complement the antioxidant activity of nutrients like vitamins C and E and selenium.
The following beneficial phytonutrients have been added to Huel Black Edition:
Lutein: from the flaxseed, and we've also added additional lutein in our vitamin and mineral blend. Although not essential, there is concern that diets low in lutein may lead to macular degeneration of the eye in the elderly, as lutein is involved in eye pigment development [20,21]. Lutein is also an antioxidant.
Zeaxanthin: another antioxidant, this has been added as it also has a role in long-term eye health [20].
Green tea catechins: green tea extract is included as it is rich in catechins, especially epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Catechins are polyphenols with antioxidant activity [23,24].
Huel Black Edition contains the probiotic Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856. Probiotics are ‘good’ bacteria which, when consumed in adequate amounts, may have health benefits, particularly for gut health [25,26,27].

Huel Black Edition Cautions and Allergen Advice
Huel Black Edition is suitable for people with most conditions. However, as some conditions require dietary intervention, like with any food, please heed the notes below for the following conditions:
Diabetes mellitus: For those with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, please review the carbohydrate, sugar and other nutrition facts for Black Edition to see if it is suitable for your needs.
Coeliac disease and other gluten sensitivities: Black Edition is gluten-free and is made with no gluten-containing ingredients. As it is not made with oats, it is also avenin-free.
Inborn errors of metabolism: if you have a glycogen storage disorder (GSD) or other inborn error of metabolism where you require dietary manipulation, you should consult your doctor or specialist clinician before using Black Edition.
Phenylketonuria: Huel Black Edition is not suitable for those who suffer from PKU.
IBS, IBD and related conditions: Huel Black Edition is not made with any high-FODMAP ingredients.
Pregnancy & breastfeeding: Huel Black Edition can be included during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but should be limited to one serving per day as there are different nutritional requirements during this period.
Children: Huel Black Edition is not suitable for children under 4 years of age. However, older children may include Black Edition as part of a balanced diet that includes a variety of other foods; Huel should not be their sole source of nutrition as they have different nutritional requirements to adults. For more information, see our Children, Adolescents and Huel article.
Eating disorders: Black Edition may be consumed by individuals with eating disorders as a useful source of complete nutrition if it is an appropriate fit for their current meal plan. However, we recommend that individuals with eating disorders only use Huel after discussing it with their doctor or relevant clinician.
Medication: There may be specific drug-nutrient interactions relating to a particular medicine you're using, so we recommend you read the drug information provided with your prescription, and if you have any further concerns, please discuss them with your doctor.
Allergen Advice
All Huel products are vegan. 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 UK and EU food safety guidelines.
However, we recognise that individuals can have allergies 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.
