Frequently Asked Questions
How many times a day do I eat these cookies?
Replace your regular meal with one packet of these cookies once a day, preferably at dinnertime. It’s more effective if you have the low-calorie cookies in place of that one meal in the day with the highest calorie count.
Do I need to drink anything?
YES. Drink at least a glass, preferably two, of water (or anything you prefer, such as non-fat/low-fat milk, soy milk, green tea, fresh juice) with the cookies. One of the cookie ingredients is “okara” or soy pulp, which expands in volume when liquid is absorbed. So let the “okara” expand and fill your stomach. The key to success is not only controlling calories, but also in managing hunger.
How safe are the cookies?
The Cookie Chef himself has selected the ingredients for their quality with utmost care. This includes the soybeans (genetically unmodified, grown naturally in the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido), the water the soybeans are cooked in (the purest of groundwater found in Japan and delivered specially to the Cookie Chef’s bakery) and the soymilk (made from the soybeans and water by the Cookie Chef). Soypal Cookies are high in dietary fiber, low in calories and have vitamins as well as calcium, iron and potassium. Put these together with over 50 years of the Cookie Chef’s professional experience. Yes, the cookies are
safe and healthy to eat.
Will I feel hungry?
The ingredient “okara,” or soy pulp, by nature expands up to 3 times when water is added. That’s why there are only 7 cookies per package to replace one meal. By drinking an appropriate quantity of liquids when you eat Soypal Cookies, you feed the “okara” in your stomach to suppress your appetite. Be sure to chew each cookie well instead of gulping it down, because chewing is essential to digestion and feeling satiated. While the cookies do provide some nutrients including soy protein, vitamins and minerals, make sure the other meals also give you the nutrition you need in a day. Whether nutrients, calories or amount of food, balance is most important when losing weight the healthy way.
Are there laxatives used in the cookies?
There are absolutely no laxatives used – only a healthy amount of dietary fiber which comes from the cookies’ ingredient, “okara” or soy pulp, which helps to keep you regular.
Can anyone diet with these cookies?
It’s always a good practice to consult your physician before going on a diet. Know well what your body can handle, including allergic reactions to any of the ingredients, before you start your Soypal Cookie diet. Some people should not be on this diet: pregnant or nursing women, diabetics, and anyone else not physically fit to be dieting. The results and effects will vary by the individual. If you’re unsure at all, again, consult your physician first.
Can I eat these cookies even if I’m not trying to lose weight?
By all means. If you’re feeling edgy because you’re hungry, isn’t it better to manage those cravings by nibbling on low-calorie cookies with a large glass of water or milk? It’ll also prevent over-eating at your mealtime. These cookies are great not only for dieters but also as a healthy snack between meals.
