Understanding the challenges of menopause
During menopause, falling estrogen levels lead to changes in fat storage, which increases appetite and slows metabolism. Nupo can help you by offering balanced meal replacement products that support your nutritional needs and make weight management easier during this phase.
Menopause is a profound transition in a woman's life, marked by a natural decline in reproductive hormones and several physiological changes. A common challenge during this time is weight gain, often due to a slowing metabolism and hormonal shifts that affect appetite and fat storage. This weight gain can worsen other menopause symptoms, including joint discomfort, increased cardiovascular strain, and changes in body composition.
Strategies for Coping with the Challenges of Menopause
Navigating menopause requires a holistic approach to health. Dietary management plays a crucial role in weight control, hormonal balance, and overall well-being. A nutrient-dense, lower-calorie diet, rich in fiber and protein, helps manage weight and supports metabolic health.

Your Nupo Diet Questions Answered
Is the Nupo Diet safe?
Yes, the Nupo Diet is designed to be safe when used according to the instructions. The diet is based on the principle of the Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD), where you consume a very limited amount of calories per day through carefully formulated meal replacement products. These products are designed to provide all the necessary nutrients your body needs to function while on such a diet.
Can I exercise while on the Nupo Diet?
Yes, you can exercise while on the Nupo diet, but it's important to adjust the intensity and amount of exercise to suit your lower calorie intake. Light to moderate exercise is recommended, especially in the beginning. Listen to your body and adjust your workouts to how you feel.
Can I prepare my Nupo Diet Shakes in advance?
Yes, you can prepare your Nupo Diet Shakes a day in advance so they are ready to drink immediately. However, like other milk drinks, they must be kept refrigerated. We have found that most people prefer to consume their shakes chilled. Before drinking your pre-mixed shake, give it one more shake. Enjoy.
Are 4-5 Nupo meals enough if I supplement them with a healthy dinner?
We recommend that you always eat 6 Nupo meals a day - this applies even if you supplement them with real food.
This is important to ensure you are getting all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients you need. Even if you think the foods you are supplementing with are healthy and nutritious, they may not contain everything your body needs.
If you still want to eat dinner, we recommend you take a look at our 1200 kcal or 1500 kcal diet plans .
