We've long known that fasting is an effective tool for preventing and reversing disease. Studies consistently show that 1–5 day fasts can provide a variety of benefits such as:
- Better blood sugar control
- Increased insulin sensitivity
- Reduced inflammation
- Improved cardiovascular health
- Enhanced brain function
- Weight loss
- Cancer preventionÂ
However, new research studying the effects of the Prolon Fasting Mimicking Diet, conclude that not only does fasting reduce disease risk, it reverses aging. Highlights from the study, recently published in Nature, include:
- Biological age score decreases by 2.5 years when someone does ProLon three times over 3-month period
- Biological age score decreases 11 years when someone does ProLon 3 times per year for 20 years between the ages of 50-70
- Immune age improves with ProLon
- Risk of developing any of the major 4 chronic diseases decreases (diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular and Alzheimer's)Â
These results are independent of weight loss, meaning other calorie-restrictive diets cannot claim similar results.Â
In simple terms, our rate of aging is greatly related to the wear and tear experienced by the body. Prolon FMD has been shown to repair this wear and tear, which slows and even reverses aging. Prolon FMD is a powerful tool for extending healthspan and enjoying a longer and more vital life. Â
We've combined the biological age tracking of TruDiagnostic's TruAge Complete and the potent anti-aging effects of Prolon FMD in a new 12-month program called Age Backwards where you can track your own progress towards aging backwards. Reach out to your BioLounge provider to learn more.
