The phases of fasting

Not all fasts are the same.
Prolonged fasting activates autophagy.

Over the 5 days of Prolon the body goes through the same phases as fasting, while still eating.

  1. Hours 0–12Digestion: glucose as fuel
  2. Hours 12–24Glycogen: the liver’s reserves
  3. Day 1–2Ketosis: the body burns fat
  4. Day 3–5Autophagy and cellular rejuvenation
Portrait of Prof. Valter Longo

Valter Longo: the pioneer of the Fasting Mimicking Diet

Prof. Valter Longo, a world expert in nutrition and longevity, founded L-Nutra in 2009. Named by TIME one of the 50 most influential people in health care, he has published studies in Cell, Nature and Science.

With his team he developed the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD), a nutrition program that mimics the benefits of fasting.

To support nutrition and social projects, he donates 100% of the proceeds from his book, his shares and his L-Nutra consulting to the Fondazione Valter Longo and Create Cures.
