Nupo Diet

The first week of the Nupo Diet – what to expect?

What to expect from the first week of the Nupo Diet.

“Is that normal?”

During the first week of the Nupo Diet, it is perfectly normal to experience some “side effects”.

How much or how little you notice of these depends on which lifestyle you come from. The symptoms, or side effects, you experience make themselves applicable to any strict diet and are therefore not conditional on the Nupo Diet per se. Below we have listed the most frequent “side effects” of a diet. If you have other experiences that you would like to know more about or inquire about, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service.


Headache

If you are used to consuming a certain amount of sugar and from one day to the next, stop it, headache is an almost inevitable side effect as the body responds to the reduced sugar intake. The headache is thus a sign that the body does not get the sugar it is used to. The headache disappears within a relatively short time when your body gets used to being on the Nupo Diet and does not have that hunger for sugary foods. If you make sure you get approx. 300 ml of water with each of your 6 Nupo Diet products a day – and in addition, drink 2-3 liters of calorie-free liquid, there should be nothing to worry about. If necessary, take a headache pill, but there may also be something in “surviving” the headache and knowing that it is the body detoxing.

Dizziness and coldness

If you have been used to consuming 2500-3000 kcal daily and suddenly only provides the body approx. 700 kcal daily to achieve an energy deficit (and consequent weight loss), the body will respond, for example, expressed by dizziness or coldness.

As soon as the body gets used to the new conditions it changes. However, coldness can be something you experience for a longer period of time since you give your body less energy than before, your body needs more energy (from your stored fat depots) to keep you running. This may periodically mean that the body is trying to maintain its core temperature, now that the energy level is reduced and the body must prioritize the use of energy.

Fatigue and inattention

It is perfectly normal to feel more tired, sleepy, lethargic, and having difficulty concentrating the first week of an actual diet. The body has previously had an abundance of energy that is suddenly taken from it. During the period when the body goes from using carbohydrates as its primary source of energy to using stored fat depots as its primary source of energy, one is extra tired. As soon as the body goes into ketosis (fat burning) the energy will return and you will be clear in your head and be re-filled with energy.

You already have all the energy you need in your stored fat depots, but the body’s transition from one fuel source to another will undoubtedly consume a little of the surplus.

Hunger

Hunger is an inevitable part of rearranging one’s diet as much, as you will with a Nupo Diet. If you are overweight, you have given your body more energy than it was able to use, over a period of time. The stomach expands according to the amount of food consumed. Now that the stomach does not get the same amount of food as before, it will “ask for more” until it has become accustomed to the new and limited amount of food.

It usually does so within a week’s time. If the hunger is too hard for you, or demands a lot of your attention – or is directly uncomfortable, we recommend taking a diet supplement that gives you calorie-free satiety, such as Slim Boost – Fill My Tummy.
Water can also provide satiety. When your body achieves ketosis you will find that hunger disappears. Ketosis has the fantastic ability to give a natural feeling of satiety.

Frequent – or fewer – toilet visits

During the first week of the Nupo Diet, you presumably significantly reduce your carbohydrate intake in relation to the lifestyle you come from. It almost applies to everyone, whether you are overweight or just want to get rid of 5 vanity pounds. Carbohydrates bind fluid to the body – actually up to 3 times its own weight! Therefore, when carbohydrate intake is as limited as on the Nupo Diet, the body will let go of a lot of accumulated fluid. This means many pee-trips to the toilet – and a fantastic motivating result on the weight. But don’t be fooled. Losing up to 3 kg during the first week of the Nupo Diet is not unusual. But! Due to the many toilet visits, you may find that it is the fluid loss that has the credit for much of the weight loss in the first week.

In addition, you can expect a stomach that may “communicate” a little more rumble than you are used to. Again, it depends a lot on what lifestyle you come from. If you’ve been used to much dietary fiber in your diet, you may not notice much more than an extra fart during the day. If you have not been used to a lot of dietary fiber, you may experience almost thunderous rumbling from the stomach, air, and possibly an extra toilet visit or two – which is not necessarily the way it usually is. You can experience both diarrhea and constipation during a weight loss course as your body naturally is detoxing.

As soon as the stomach gets used to the many good dietary fibers, it all normalizes again. However, you must be aware – even at length – that you will visit the toilet less. 6 liquid meals a day is super healthy for the body as it absorbs nutrients from the liquid diet much better. We humans rarely chew the food so thoroughly that the body can fully benefit from the nutrition that is in our food. When the food is liquid, the body gets the best conditions to absorb nutrients. But what is left in the intestinal system is sparse and you should, therefore, expect less of these “daily breaks” during your diet.

Can I mix Nupo Diet and Nupo One Meal?

We do not recommend combining the two product lines, due to differences in nutritional values.
Nupo Diet is a full meal replacement whereas One Meal is a single meal replacement, and nutritional values are there for optimized to replace one or two main meals a day, and contains all the nutrition, i.e. Proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.

Even though the content of calories is approximately the same, if you exchange two sachets of Nupo Diet, with a One Meal product, the nutritional values are not the same, and when dieting, covering the basic needs for nutrition is highly important, to achieve the desired results.

What is ketosis?

“The new black” amongst diets are the so-called keto-diets. A common denominator for these diets is that you consume very few carbohydrates and a larger amount of fat when compared to the official recommendations. However, what is ketosis?


A simple explanation is that ketosis is a state, in which your body gets its energy from its fat stores instead of the glycogen stores in your muscles. Normally, your body’s fuel comes from carbohydrates, which are stored in the muscles as glycogen. When you decrease/limit your carbohydrate intake, you will force your body to find an alternative energy source – in this case: stored fat. When the body begins to use the stored fat as fuel, the body will transform the fat into ketones, which it uses as fuel instead of glycogen.

If you read about keto diets, where you eat regular food with a low amount of carbohydrates, there are many different theories about how many carbohydrates, you are allowed to consume to enter the state of ketosis and maintain that state. With Nupo’s VLCD (Very Low-Calorie Diet), you get a lower amount of carbohydrates, than a normal diet – that follows the official recommendations – and therefore you will enter the state of ketosis, by using Nupo’s VLCD Diet Shakes. You will maintain the state of ketosis, by sticking to the Nupo Diet – you can use Nupo’s Diet Shakes for up to three weeks.

If you start complementing the Nupo Diet with other foods, you might not achieve the same success – to give yourself a better chance for success, you must stay strictly to the Nupo Diet. This is because, if you add other foods to your diet, you might lose the state of ketosis, even though you are still in a calorie- and carbohydrate deficit. It can be very difficult to be on a keto diet with regular foods, as it is strict regarding the food you may, and may not, eat.


With Nupo’s VLCD Diet Shakes, you get all the necessary nutrients and vitamins, and a calorie- and carbohydrate deficit, which makes it easier to maintain the state of ketosis. A positive side effect of ketosis is that it lowers your appetite, which is smart if you want to lose weight, and this is even though you are consuming fewer calories and a regular diet – it takes a couple of days on Nupo, to get to this state.

Nupo has presented three new products to their VLCD-line, which are an Oatmeal – Apple Cinnamon, and two soups: Diet Soup – Tomato and Diet Soup – Vegetable. This means that Nupo has three soups, which is great as a lunch or dinner alternative, and the Oatmeal is perfect as breakfast. Furthermore, Nupo’s classic Diet Shakes comes in five different variations: Mango Vanilla, Blueberry Raspberry, Strawberry, Chocolate Flavour, and Café Latte. It is important that you stick to the diet, give yourself the best preconditions for a successful weight loss, and do not complement the diet with regular foods that might affect the state of ketosis.

Can Nupo Diet-shakes and soups be mixed with hot water?

Yes, you can mix up your Nupo Diet shakes with warm water, but we advise that you enjoy them chilled.
We experience that the majority prefer that the shakes are refrigerated before they are consumed.
Our Nupo Diet Soups and Oat Meal should be mixed with cold water and then heated in the microwave or in a pot.

I get a severe amount of air in the stomach when I eat Nupo.

The Nupo Diet and the related sachets that must be consumed six times daily contain a lot of fibers and some might experience more air in their stomach. This is perfectly normal and is only a question of your body adapting.

Contact us at: info@nupo.dk if your question was not answered.

Can I experience headaches when I eat Nupo?

If you make sure to consume all your sachets from the Nupo Diet and drink enough liquid (2-3 liters of water every day is recommended), then it should not be something to worry about. You might experience headaches if you are accustomed to consuming big amounts of sugar, and then stop doing that while on a Nupo Diet. If a headache might occur, it should be gone within a relatively short time when the body gets used to the Nupo Diet.

Contact us at: info@nupo.dk if your question was not answered.

Should I eat vitamin pills, if I am on a Nupo Diet?

No, it should not be necessary to eat vitamin pills when you are on the Nupo Diet. Nupo contains all the vitamins and minerals that you and your body need daily.

Contact us at: info@nupo.dk if your question was not answered.

Can I settle for 4-5 sachets of Nupo and supplement with a healthy supper?

We advise that you always eat 6 Nupo-meals every day – this still applies even if you supplement with real food.

This is important to make sure for us that you get all the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that you need. Even though that one might think that the food you supplement with is healthy and nutritious, it is not certain that it contains everything that you and your body need. If you want to eat dinner nonetheless, we suggest that you take a sachet of Nupo Diet about half an hour before the meal. By doing this, you will make sure that you will not be as hungry and therefore less tempted to eat more of the real food.

Can I freeze my Nupo Diet-shakes?

Yes, you can freeze down your Nupo Diet-shake (short term!), for 1-2 days. Some choose to freeze down their Nupo Diet-shake for 15-30 minutes before they drink it, as to have an ice-cold and delicious shake that will have a thicker and slush ice-like consistency.

If you freeze down your shake the night before, you can bring it in the morning, and later in the day, you will have a chilled shake. You must be aware, that the thawing period can vary since it depends on the immediate temperature in the environment you are in. Some even enjoy a frozen Nupo Diet-shake as a delicious Nupo ice cream, when they are craving something sweet – in this case, you have ice cream with low-calorie content.

Contact us at: info@nupo.dk if your question was not answered.

Can I prepare my Nupo Diet-shakes in advance?

Yes, you can prepare your Nupo Diet shakes a day in advance so that they are ready for use immediately. They must be stored in a chilled environment just like a milk drink – we experience that the majority prefer that the shakes are refrigerated before they are consumed. Before enjoying your shake, you can to your own advantage shake it up. Bon appetite.

Can I use Nupo if I have type 1 diabetes?

Yes, it is safe to make use of Nupo Diet Shakes which are VLCD (Very Low-Calorie Diet), if you have type 1 diabetes. It is important to note that you should consult your doctor (diabetes specialist) before you start a diet program. The reason being, that the insulin dose should be reduced first or there could be a risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). For patients in treatment that includes meal-based insulin, it is a good idea to consult a dietitian, to make the insulin dose match with the carbohydrate amount in each meal VLCD every day.

What does VLCD stand for?

VLCD stands for Very Low-Calorie Diet.

The Nupo Diet consists of 6 daily Nupo Diet Shakes, -Soups, or -Oatmeal and is a VLCD diet. The guidelines for a VLCD diet are very strict and make sure, that you as a consumer get 100% of the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that you and your body need daily while keeping the number of calories low – approx. 700 calories per day.

According to the guidelines for a VLCD diet, as a complete diet replacement, it may contain between 450-800 kcal. Studies have shown that you do not lose weight quicker, by consuming less than 800 kcal per day. The Nupo Diet will provide you with approx. 700 calories that are split over 6 meals. Splitting your shakes over 6 meals will help you keep your blood sugar stable and your digestion going.

At Nupo we offer the Nupo Diet which is a VLCD diet that comes in 9 different flavors – meaning there is something for everyone.

How do I stop with the Nupo Diet when the desired weight loss is achieved?

It is an advantage for your body if you continue with the good meal pattern with 6 meals a day, that you have worked towards while following the Nupo Diet. We advise that you eat 3 main meals (morning, noon, and evening), with a focus on eating by the “plate model”, and prioritize lots of coarse vegetables and lean meat. In addition, it is recommended to have 2-3 snacks during the day, to keep your combustion active, as well as keeping your blood sugar stable. A low-calorie snack could be an egg, a handful of almonds, or a couple of carrots. You could try some of our other products such as our One Meal-products or our Protein Bites.

The One Meal series consists of an assortment of meal replacements that can you can use to replace 1-2 of your daily main meals. You can read more about the One Meal series here. Protein Bites are bars that can be used as a snack, rich in protein and fiber, and are available in 2 different flavors: Caramel Ginger and Chocolate.

Contact us at: info@nupo.dk if your question was not answered.

*The “plate model” is a term used to describe the recommended distribution of carbs, proteins, and fat on your dinner plate.

Will it stop my fat metabolism if I only eat Nupo?

No, consuming only Nupo products will not stop your metabolism. This is partly due to the content of different nutrients and fibers as well as the fact that you on a Nupo Diet should eat six sachets (of 32 grams) of our Nupo Diet products, every day. The numerous smaller meals throughout the day are better at maintaining your fat metabolism, rather than fewer big meals.

Will I regain all the kilos if I stop the Nupo Diet?

If you choose to go back to the same diet and the same patterns, that you were used to before the Nupo Diet – yes, you would most likely regain the kilos. Our Nupo Diet works as a kickstart, and the idea is that you should change your diet habits to retain weight loss.

In this case, our One Meal series can be a good help. The One Meal series consists of a series of bars and shakes that function as meal replacements that can be used to replace 1-2 of your daily main meals. One of our One Meal products is equal to a full main meal. If you want to learn more about our One Meal series, you can read more on this page.

Slim Boost

Good to know about Calorie Fighter!

Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. No allergens. No preservatives. No lactose, iodine, gluten, or cholesterol.

Calorie Fighter is made of natural ingredients and contains no raw material of animal origin. Minor variations in color and flavor have no impact on the effectiveness of the product.

Why does the sachet drink have a strange texture when made up?

The glucomannan in the product works by swelling and forming a jelly-like structure. This happens almost immediately and this is why the drink has a slightly gloopy texture if left without stirring.

If the drink is left and not drunk immediately it will quickly start to form a gel. Do not drink if this happens as this could pose a choking hazard.

I forgot to take Calorie Fighter before eating my meal – should I take it after I have eaten?

No, if you forgot to take Calorie Fighter do not worry. However, do not take it after your meal as this will reduce the efficacy of the Calorie Fighter and may cause an upset stomach. Just take it as recommended the next time you have a meal.

Who cannot use Calorie Fighter?

Under some circumstances, it is not recommended to use Calorie Fighter. Some examples of these circumstances are:

  • Do not use in case of allergy or intolerance to one of the compounds present in the formulation or to known sensitivity to herbal products.
  • Not suitable for persons with swallowing difficulties.
  • Not suitable for persons with inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract such as acid reflux disease, gastritis, ventricular or duodenal ulcers, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis), presenting signs of intestinal obstruction (impending or existing mechanical or paralytic ileus), gastric bypass, gastroparesis in diabetics with neuropathy, intestinal polyps and existing severe digestive disorders.
  • Not suitable for persons with a medical history of constipation.
  • Not suitable for underweight persons (Body Mass Index- BMI<18.5).
  • Not suitable for babies, infants, or children. Adolescents should use Calorie Fighter only after consulting a doctor.

In case of doubt, ask a healthcare professional. Always remember to follow the information regarding the recommended daily dose and additional instructions on the packaging of a given product – as it varies from product to product.

Does Calorie Fighter have any side effects?

Persons taking Calorie Fighter may occasionally experience gastrointestinal disorders such as constipation, dyspepsia, stomachaches, uncomfortable bloating, flatulence, abdominal discomfort or pain, heartburn, gastroesophageal reflux, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.

For how long can I use Calorie Fighter?

Calorie Fighter is suitable for long-term use and is recommended for up to 12 weeks, and as a part of an energy-restricted diet. The product increases the effect of an energy-restricted diet and physical activity. The rate and amount of weight loss are individual  – factors as age, health status, lifestyle, starting weight, and goal weight need to be taken into consideration. Medical devices – such as Slim Boost+ Calorie Fighter – cannot replace a varied diet and healthy lifestyle.

How do I use Calorie Fighter?

Calorie Fighter intended for the oral route. The sticks are for single use only. Calorie Fighter is intended to be used in obese adults (BMI≥ 30) or overweight adults (BMI ≥ 25).

Recommended intake quantity:

  • 1 stick three times a day (before breakfast, dinner, and lunch),
  • To be taken 15 minutes before each meal with one or two large glasses of water.

Drink immediately after the dispersion of the powder to avoid the thickening of the solution. Calorie Fighter is suitable for long-term use and recommended to be used up to 12 weeks depending on the need.

How does Calorie Fighter work?

When Glucomannan is mixed with water, it swells and expands in the stomach and functions as a filler. This increases the feeling of satiation, lowers the appetite, and prevents excessive eating and cravings. Chitosan has a high lipid-binding capacity that helps by lowering the fat absorption fra the diet. Therefore, Calorie Fighter helps to reduce the calorie intake and restores a healthy energy balance as a support in a weight management program.

Which active ingredients does Calorie Fighter have?

Calorie Fighter is based on two main ingredients: glucomannan and chitosan.

Glucomannan – a natural, water-soluble dietary fiber from the Konjac plant. The fibers work in the stomach and intestines by absorbing liquids and transforming these into a thicker mass. When the stomach feels full, it will reduce the feeling of hunger and increase the feeling of satiation.

Chitosan – extracted from aspergillus niger (a type of mold) that attracts and binds fat from cholesterol in your diet – all happening in the stomach. This interaction helps to shape indigestible fat clusters that are too large to be absorbed by the body. This means that these clusters are not a part of the metabolic cycle, but are excreted undigested. Calorie Fighter binds up to 42% of the fat from the diet in the stomach.

What effect does Calorie Fighter have?

Calorie Fighter can contribute with:

  • an improvement in satiation and preventing overeating and cravings.
  • reducing the absorption of fat by up to 42%*.
  • reducing the availability of carbohydrates for absorption by up to 46%**.
  • lowering the total calorie intake with approx. 800 kcal per day***.

In vitro test 2015037/5/Fatbinding. ** In vitro test 2015037/9/Kioslim. *** Estimate based on a daily intake of 2200 kcal containing 50% carbohydrates, 35% fat, and 15% proteins.

What is Calorie Fighter developed for?

Calorie Fighter is developed as a supplement for weight loss or weight control in the treatment and prevention of overweight and obesity, in order to prevent diseases related to these kinds of health conditions.

Who can use Calorie Fighter?

Calorie Fighter can be used by all adults (18+) that either need to lose weight or maintain a healthy, normal weight. The product can be used as a part of an energy-restricted diet in a weight loss process, or as a natural part of a busy every day filled with temptations that can complicate the maintenance of one’s normal weight.
