The science behind ProLon
Our 5-day nutritional program is the only patented program that promotes rejuvenation from the inside out for healthy aging.
Discovered and developed at the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California, our technology is plant-based nutrition that allows the body to enter a beneficial fasting state without triggering the cells' nutrient sensors. As the name suggests, it actually mimics fasting while still allowing you to eat food. This nourishing fast refines cells, promotes healthy aging, and eliminates the need for water-only starvation fasting, which can have negative side effects. Take your body on a 5-day journey to renewal.
Macro and micro precision nutrition keeps you in a fasted state.
FMD (The Fasting Mimicking Diet) is a nutritional program that contains a specific ratio, quantity and composition of plant-based proteins, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates. Foods in the program nourish the body, but do not trigger cellular food sensors known as nutrient-sensing pathways. In short, the program allows users to eat while their cells remain in a fasting state!
Each ingredient has been carefully selected, to work together to keep your body nourished for these five days. All ProLon ingredients are tested and selected.
Trigger autophagy – the magic of cellular rejuvenation.
Fasting, when practiced specifically, can trigger autophagy. Autophagy is a process by which the body gets rid of parts and proteins from tired and old cells, making way for new, healthy cells. ProLon supports the body's natural processes of intracellular cleansing and cell renewal.
During autophagy, cells recycle intracellular waste and worn-out parts (organelles), so they appear to be younger versions of themselves after fasting.
Autophagy is so important to health and longevity that research on this topic was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Medicine . Simply put, autophagy is your body's natural, all-too-often untapped system for replacing and renewing old and worn-out cellular components.
