HOW TO PREPARE?
The ProLon fasting diet approach will be even easier! Ready-to-eat soups are the perfect balance between practicality and authentic taste. Preparing them is a breeze: just heat them for a few minutes in the microwave and they are ready to be tasted. There is no need to add anything, because we have already done everything ourselves, using only organic ingredients with a short supply, fresh and selected.
Thanks to our advanced nutri-technology, soups retain all the natural flavor and essential nutrients without compromising on quality. A hot, nutritious and ready-to-eat dish that offers you the best of Italian tradition with a touch of innovation. Take care of your health without sacrificing taste.
What is meant by a short supply chain
Short supply chain refers to a production chain which is characterised by a limited number of production steps and commercial intermediation. Short supply chains are not necessarily local (short in geographical terms), but defined by the reduction of supply chain transitions, which have the least possible links between producer and consumer (and therefore are short because the chain has a limited number number).
What are the advantages
Short supply chain means control and reduction of production processes and the transfer between producer and consumer, which benefits food quality but also the environment.
According According to various studies, the short supply chain and the sales systems without intermediaries (or with reduced intermediaries) provide important benefits for the general public: For example, increased face-to-face interaction generally results in higher levels of consumer confidence, which also appreciates the greater transparency and traceability associated with this methodology, being able to obtain clear information on where food comes from, how it is produced and its associated characteristics.
There are also environmental benefits, because the development of local food production and distribution can reduce emissions from transport and increase logistics efficiency.
Backed by & continually advancing through science.
After two decades and tens of millions in Research & Development, L-Nutra (a leading Nutri-tech company) and The University of Southern California, led by Dr. Valter Longo were able to identify cellular radars that detect nutrition, called Nutrient Sensing Pathways, and to develop a 5 day Nutrition Program that nourishes the body while the food sensing pathways are not triggered and therefore providing the prolonged fasting benefits.
Prolon provides the body with healthy, plant-based ingredients that have been scientifically demonstrated to provide the body with optimal nourishment while not activating the key pro-aging pathways, or food sensing pathways — pathways which are activated by normal diets.
FAQs
The amazing part about ProLon is it can easily fit into your lifestylle and is only a 5 day change to your normal life.
Suggested consumption by Dr. Valter Longo, head of the Longevity Institute at University of Southern California and Author of the Longevity Diet.
• If you have a health or metabolic objective in mind and want to achieve faster the metabolic and rejuvenative successes of ProLon, then you can do ProLon every month for 3 or 4 months and then do it once every 3 months to maintain the benefits.
• 2 times only per year for Healthy Aging (10 days out of 365 days!)
• 3 times per year for Healthy Aging and added Weight Loss (15 days out of 365 days!)
Some people do ProLon once a month for reasons that are in line with therapeutic effects of fasting.
The diet should be used for five consecutive days, after which the individual will transition on the 6th day and then resume their normal diet. The program provides a meal card that recommends how to consume the items for each day, but each day’s items can be consumed in any order you wish, as long as you only eat each day’s items during that day (do not carry them over to the next).
While there are many different signaling factors in the “nutrient-sensing pathways” involved with cellular fasting, the 3 primary nutrient-sensing pathways that ProLon and fasting down-regulate are IGF-1, mTOR, and PKA. The process is complex, and each pathway can interact with other pathways, but in general, PKA responds primarily to sugar and carbohydrates, while IGF-1 is primarily responsive to protein (and more strongly triggered by animal protein), and mTOR is triggered by IGF-1 and amino acids. Sugar and carbohydrates (and to some extent caffeine) will activate PKA. These nutrient-sensing pathways all help regulate the cells’ growth cycles and stress-resistant “fasting” state.
ProLon provides the body with a scientifically developed, naturally occurring combination of macronutrients (fats, carbohydrates, proteins) and micronutrients (essential vitamins and minerals) designed to keep the body nourished while going through the rejuvenating process of the fasting state.
WHAT HAPPENS ON DAYS 1 TO 5 ON MY PROLON FAST?
Day 1: Transforming to a Fasting State: Your body is transitioning to a fasting state and fat- burning mode, and begins preparation for cellular clean-up.
Day 2: Fat Burning & Ketogenesis: Fast Burning & Ketogenesis: Fat-Burning ramps up, contributing to the initiation of ketogenesis (ketone production). By the end of this day (48 hours), ketosis may occur. Day 3: Autophagy Clean Up State: Cellular clean-up (autophagy) Fat-burning and ketone production/utilization continues and increases.
Day 4: Cellular Rejuvenation:Cellular cleaning/renewal & fat-burning You’re in the final stretch.
Day 5: Renewal & Change: Fast completed, cellular renewal continues beyond Day 5.
While the purpose of the ProLon diet is to trigger rejuvenation, weight loss may occur. Everyone is different, and weight loss depends on a number of factors. In a clinical study of participants who completed a 5-day ProLon cycle once a month for three months, the average weight loss at the end of the study was about 2.5 kilos. This was primarily abdominal fat, while lean body mass was preserved.
Day 1 has about 1100 calories (kcals), while Days 2-5 have between 700 and 800 calories (kcals) per day.
