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.

TDR stands for Total Diet Replacement.

The Nupo Diet is a Total Diet Replacement, consisting of low calorie portions designed to provide complete nutrition while supporting weight loss.

TDR guidelines are strictly regulated to ensure that you receive 100% of the essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients your body needs each day, while maintaining a low-calorie intake.

At Nupo, we offer the Nupo Diet in a variety of flavours, allowing you to mix and match to suit your preferences.

VLCD stands for 'Very Low Calorie Diet' and contains 6 Nupo Diet portions per day.

LCD stands for 'Low Calorie Diet' and contains 7 Nupo Diet portions per day.

They are both considered a TDR (Total Diet Replacement) which is also known as a Soup & Shake Diet.

The guidelines for a Total Diet Replacement (TDR) are strictly regulated to ensure that you, as a consumer, receive 100% of the essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients your body needs daily, while maintaining a low-calorie intake per day.

The Nupo Diet in this programme provides 7 portions per day which is approximately 900 calories per day. This balanced distribution helps stabilise blood sugar levels and supports healthy digestion.

At Nupo, we offer the Nupo Diet in a variety of flavours, allowing you to mix and match to suit your preferences.

"Is this normal?"

During the first week of the Nupo Diet, it is completely normal to experience certain "side effects." The extent of these depends on your lifestyle. The symptoms or side effects you may experience are typical of all strict diets and are not specific to the Nupo Diet. Below, we have summarized the most common "side effects" of a diet. If you have other experiences or questions, don't hesitate to contact our customer service.

Headache
If you're used to consuming a lot of sugar and suddenly stop, headaches are almost inevitable as your body reacts to the reduced sugar intake. The headache is a sign that your body is not receiving the sugar it is accustomed to. However, this should subside shortly as your body adjusts to the Nupo Diet. As your sugar dependency decreases, so will your cravings for sweet foods. Be sure to drink about 300 ml of water with each of your 6 Nupo Diet products daily, plus 2-3 liters of calorie-free liquids. If necessary, you can take painkillers, but it can also be beneficial to endure the headache, knowing that your body is detoxifying.

Dizziness and Chills
If you previously consumed 2500-3000 kcal daily and suddenly reduce your intake to about 800 kcal to create a calorie deficit, your body will naturally react, which may cause dizziness or a feeling of chills. These symptoms should subside as your body adjusts. Feeling cold may persist longer, as your body uses more stored fat for energy to maintain your body temperature.

Fatigue
It is common to feel more tired, sleepy, and less focused during the first week of the diet. Your body is transitioning from using carbohydrates as its primary energy source to using stored fat. Once your body enters ketosis (fat burning), your energy levels will return, and you will feel more alert and energized.

Hunger
Hunger is an inevitable part of drastically changing your eating habits. If you are overweight, you have likely consumed more energy than your body needs, which has expanded your stomach. When you start eating less, your stomach will "ask for more" until it adjusts, which usually happens within a week. If the hunger feels too overwhelming, you can consider taking a calorie-free supplement like Slim Boost – Fill My Tummy. Drinking water can also help. Once your body reaches ketosis, you will experience a natural reduction in hunger.

Frequent or Fewer Bathroom Visits
During the first week of the Nupo Diet, you will likely significantly reduce your carbohydrate intake. Carbohydrates bind water in the body—up to three times their own weight! With fewer carbohydrates, your body will release stored water, leading to frequent urination and initial weight loss. However, this is primarily water loss. Your stomach may also start to rumble more due to increased fiber intake. This can vary depending on your previous lifestyle. If you're used to fiber-rich foods, you may only notice small changes. If not, you may experience more noticeable changes in digestion.

Once your stomach adjusts to the new fiber intake, everything should normalize. Expect fewer bathroom visits overall, as liquid meals are efficiently absorbed by the body, leaving little waste.

If you have any concerns or questions, please contact our customer service.

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.

“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.

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.

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.

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.

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 .

Yes, you can mix your Nupo Diet shakes with warm water, but we recommend enjoying them chilled. Based on experience, most people prefer the taste and texture when the shakes are refrigerated before consumption.

For meals and soups, we advise mixing them with cold water first, then heating them in the microwave or on the stove for the best consistency and flavour.

No, following the Nupo Diet will not slow down your metabolism.

The diet is carefully formulated with essential nutrients and fibre to support your body's needs. Additionally, consuming seven portions per day ensures a steady intake of energy, helping to maintain an active fat metabolism.

Eating smaller, frequent meals throughout the day is more effective for sustaining metabolism than fewer, larger meals.

Our Nupo Diet variant does not currently have a Halal certification.
