Before I share some of the interesting/nice anecdotes from this, I feel I must say that meal replacements have lots of issues - both in terms of effects on mental health and some of the physical results https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/technology/2019/04/ladies-huel-lunch-rise-meal-replacements-feminist-act …pic.twitter.com/2CXbctn3rl
