How much maltodextrin (as a carrier etc.) does Huel contain?
I’ve searched the forum, but have not found any amounts.
I’m also curious why this ingredient isn’t on the label…
From this page - https://uk.huel.com/pages/how-huel-and-the-huel-ingredients-are-produced
“Spray-drying production starts with the mixing, dissolving and homogenisation of the MCTs and a maltodextrin carrier solution to create a suspension solution. Maltodextrin carriers are widely used in food production, forming a protective layer to encapsulate the MCTs’ properties.”
[quote=“JamesCollier, post:4, topic:6577”]The carrier of the micronutrient blend is maltodextrin. But the amounts in Huel are so low that we were advised not to add maltodextrin to the ingredients list to avoid confusing the consumer. When components of food are included in such low amounts there is not a legal obligation to put them on. We felt that this confused confusers to think we used maltodextrin as a source of carbohydrate.
