Fasting Mimicking Diet
What is ProLon?
ProLon is a 5-day modified fasting program designed to launch you safely toward your health goals.
ProLon®, FASTING MIMICKING DIET™ (FMD™), is a plant-based, 5-day meal program providing 1150 calories on Day 1 and approximately 800 on Days 2-5.
The ProLon® dietary program has been scientifically developed and clinically tested at the University of Southern California Longevity Institute and School of Medicine, one of the leading centers for research on aging and longevity.
ProLon® exploits the ability of the body during periods of low calorie intake to enter a protected mode, remove damaged cells and tissues, and undergo self-repair. Evidence suggests that this process may result in increased longevity and improved health and wellness.
The ProLon® meal program consists of proprietary plant-based soups, bars, drinks, snacks, teas, and supplement formula tablets - all designed to maximize the protective effects related to fasting, while providing micronutrient nourishment (vitamins, minerals and essential dietary components), and minimizing hunger and the burdens of fasting.* The program covers a period of 5 continuous days.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Safety Precautions
Do not fast or use any fasting products for fasting purposes if you have a fever, cough, diarrhea, signs of an active infection, are at risk for recurrent infection, are underweight, are breastfeeding, are pregnant, have dietary restrictions, or are under the age of 18 or over the age of 70.
Only fast or use fasting products under a doctor’s supervision if you have diabetes (types 1 or 2), cancer, congestive heart failure, or a history of fainting (syncope).
Do not undertake fasting or use any fasting products for fasting purposes if you have a known, diagnosed, or suspected eating disorder
Do not use ProLon if you are allergic to nuts, celeriac/celery, oats, or sesame, or any other ingredients in ProLon.
Due to nature of fasting, there are common complaints associated with it including fatigue, headache, dizziness, and difficulty with concentration during the fasting period. Complaints are mild and tolerated for most people. Although ProLon is designed to mitigate many of these risks of fasting by providing specific macro and micronutrients, because it is still a low calorie diet, we encourage you to discuss with your healthcare provider whether the practice of fasting or the use of fasting mimicking diet is right for you.
Avoid the following while on your 5-day program:
- Any strenuous exercising or activities that may consume a high level of calories.
- Extreme temperature environments like hot tubs and saunas, or driving long distances under strong sun or heat exposure.
- Since ProLon is a food based program, please stop the product should you experience any symptom of an allergic reaction such as a rash, change in voice, swelling or fever.
- If you feel light headed or faint, you should eat something or drink juice or consume a beverage with sugar. If your symptoms do not subside, please contact your physician or if you feel this is a life threatening emergency, call 911.
- We recommend a consultation with a Certified Health Coach before beginning any program to ensure an optimal experience.
