PROLON®: What if your body acted as if you were fasting?
THE fast can be defined as a dietary restriction for a period of time, usually between 12 and 24 hours. During this period, no food is eaten, only drinks such as water, tea and even coffee (one cup per day) are allowed.
THE ProLon® (acronym formed from promoting longevity) is the only scientifically validated 5-day eating program that mimics fasting, that is, it makes the body interpret this period of time as if it had been fasting, while eating.
Developed by nutrition and science experts, it is a safe and effective option for those looking for:
- a healthy and safe way to lose weight;
- improve metabolic health;
- increase cell longevity.
Benefits
In fact, PROLON® has several proven benefits:
- cellular rejuvenation – during these 5 days, your body will cleanse itself at a cellular level, also promoting a much greater capacity for cellular recovery and repair than usual, through the processes of autophagy.
- improving cellular composition – It has been proven that people who are overweight or obese benefit from this program, because it is, in fact, an ally in weight loss, focusing on fat.
- a change in the relationship with food – this program effectively promotes an improvement in the relationship with food, favoring better dietary control and adjustment.
- better results and successful transformations – at the end of the five days, you'll notice several improvements: it improves the appearance of your skin, increases overall well-being, and many people improve the quality of their sleep, rest more, and wake up feeling energized again.
For advice: talk to our nutritionist, Dr. Bárbara Nogueira. A diet isn't a strategy that everyone can adopt and should always be evaluated and monitored by a healthcare professional.
Our daily lives are fast-paced, filled with pressure and stress. As a result, we intoxicate our bodies and minds with our current lifestyle, diet, and environment. As we age, our cellular capacity to detoxify, recover, and heal diminishes, and aging cells outnumber young cells.
Our ancestors had a natural secret to defend themselves against accelerated aging and to rejuvenate their cells: prolonged fasting (more than 3 days). Therefore, when you fast, your body uses its reserves (fat and glycogen) during the first 2 days (intermittent fasting period), but when fasting exceeds 3 days or more (the period of prolonged fasting), the body moves to the next level of “protective and rejuvenating defense called autophagy.”
These days, we tend to accelerate cellular damage and aging instead of entering periods of autophagy, recovery, and rejuvenation. In 5 short days, PROLON® allows your body to enter a state of rejuvenation, while consuming macro and micronutrients to keep your body nourished.
