When it comes to resetting your body, detoxing, losing weight, and improving your overall health, intermittent fasting may be the answer. Fasting is when you refrain from eating and drinking or reduce the number of calories you eat and drink, for short periods of time.
There are many different ways to fast, but at LongevityMed, we suggest the ProLon fast. The ProLon fast, also known as the Fasting Mimicking Diet, is done over a 5 day period in order to promote regenerative and rejuvenating changes. This helps regulate aging, cholesterol, inflammation, weight loss, and fasting glucose. The ProLon fast meal program was designed to promote "regeneration, longevity, and healthspan."
When doing the ProLon diet, you'll receive 5 meal boxes that include plant-based gluten-free snacks, supplements, drinks, and meals. You can be sure that your food will never contain chemicals, additives, or preservatives (except for the energy drink which contains preservatives.) While on the ProLon diet, your daily caloric intake will be between 770 and 1100 calories.
According to prolonpro.com, the ProLon fasting diet provides its users with benefits including "fasting glucose, C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation, insulin-like growth factor 1, a marker associated with increased mortality and DNA damage in human cells, and stem cells and regenerative markers."
Give the ProLon fast a try today! While fasting has many proven benefits, you should always consult your doctor before starting a new diet plan.
