Did you know you could reap the benefits of fasting while still consuming food? How does Prolon work? Why does it work? What even is it? Well, it’s a fasting mimicking diet, that’s what.
Today I’m talking with Dr. Joseph Antoun, CEO of L-Nutra, former Director of Health Policy at the University of Chicago, and former Editor in Chief of the Journal of Health Systems and Reform. We’ll be talking about a recent study by The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism on the effects of a fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) on type 2 diabetes in adults; and to reveal the findings of which that suggest it is the first-ever nutrition-based program found to promote regression and remission of diabetes and—the truly groundbreaking discovery—support temporary reversal of diabetic nephropathy.
The fasting-mimicking diet has gained recognition in recent years as an approach to weight loss and overall human longevity. Until now, options for slowing the progression of diabetic nephropathy have been limited to controlling glycemia, lipidemia, and blood pressure. This new study suggests a game-changing approach. It’s the first time scientists and doctors have discovered an effective reversal of kidney disease through nutrition.
Fasting is not just for diabetic patients. Everyone can benefit from the process and Dr. Antoun explains how and why.
