Both the RTD (bottled product) and the Powder (v3.0 and Complete Protein) contain artificial sweeteners. Sucralose, the sweetener we use has been demonstrated to be safe for consumption by humans by numerous studies and reports.The benefits of it far outweigh any potential issues you might have, compared to the very well researched negatives of non-sweetener alternatives like sugar. We’ve written about it here if you are interested:
To clarify what I mean the reason we don’t use natural sweeteners in these products is because sugars and syrups like honey and sucrose add calories, negatively affect dental health and also only provide sugar, they’re not what we want in a Huel product.
However, we have a number of products which don’t use artificial sweeteners! Like Black Edition, Hot & Savoury and our Bars! We want to have a selection of products with and without artificial sweeteners to improve your choice. We also have Unflavoured/Unsweetened versions of v3.0 and Complete Protein which might be more suitable for you, you could add your own flavourings in.
RTD and Powder are very different products. I think they give you a good idea of how much they will fill you up, and an idea of the flavour, but texture they are very different for a number of reasons.
