Fasting Mimicking with Prolon FMD

September 18, 2019

We are happy to introduce Prolon’s Fasting-mimicking Diet (FMD). The FMD is a 5-day meal program comprised of natural, healthy ingredients.

Prolong FMD 5-Day Plan

Prolon’s Fasting-mimicking Diet is formulated to support and promote overall health at the cellular level by:

  • rejuvenating stem cells; 
  • maintaining metabolic health by reducing triglycerides, insulin resistance, and blood glucose; and
  • reducing body fat by consuming low-calorie meals that mimic fasting.

The diet has been scientifically proven to naturally reduce C-reactive protein (an inflammation marker, decrease blood pressure, and maintain healthy levels of stem cells for up to 5 days after the diet.

The Fasting-mimicking Diet is pre-packaged, and it includes everything you need to complete the 5-day diet. The diet is made up of soups, snack bars, olives, and tea. It’s designed to minimize carbohydrates and protein while encouraging fat intake. Calories are capped at approximately 40% of the total daily caloric allowance to keep the body supplied with electrolytes and nutrients.

The Fasting-mimicking diet is intended for:

  • Patients with diagnostic markers that indicate chronic metabolic disorders, such as elevated CRP, cholesterol, and fasting blood glucose 
  • Patients who want to reduce risk factors from aging and age-related chronic disorders naturally
  • Overweight or obese patients seeking to lose and manage weight 

The Fasting-mimicking diet is contraindicated for:

  • Pregnant or nursing women
  • Patients experiencing diarrhea, cough, fever or signs of an active infection
  • Patients allergic to oats, sesame, nuts or celery
  • Malnourished or underweight patients

If you’d like some help planning your intermittent fasting, we found an interactive intermittent fasting calculator you might want to try.

Are you curious if a fasting-mimicking diet is the right fit for your body? Schedule a free brief meet and greet with one of our naturopathic doctors by calling 480-588-6856.

    I began to see Dr. Watkins for some general Women's Health issues and she was incredible to work with. She helped my body become more balanced, pain was relieved naturally, and my body was prepared for a healthy pregnancy. She is kind, knowledgable, and very supportive!

    My wife has seen Dr. Watkins since last year after having stomach issues. After her first visit with Dr. Watkins she had a plan of action. After the first couple of weeks of following her plan, she started noticing a big positive shift in her symptoms and after a few months, many of the issues had gone away. Above all, the support that she received from Dr. Watkins and Living Wellness has made all the difference. This place is truly a life-changing experience and has changed our perspective on healthcare. We love Living Wellness!

    I am so grateful to have met Dr. Watkins! It is not often that you meet a doctor that desires to get to the root of an issue AND genuinely cares. I am a detail-oriented person, and she recognized that and explained how things should function vs how things were functioning for me, all at a level that was easily understood with the right amount of technical information. Dr. Watkins is smart as well as intuitive – rather than throw prescriptions at me for individual ailments, she treats the overall body, connecting my various medical issues and guiding me through the process to healing. She is a breath of fresh air, and she makes it easy to talk to her about anything.

    I have been working with Dr. Olivia Watkins for over two years now. She is truly a partner in my ongoing health care. Her smart and inquisitive approach means that we get to the root cause of issues sooner with better results. She is open to alternative approaches and has laughed with me every step of the way. I am grateful for a health care provider that cares as much as Dr. Watkins does, I truly believe she has my best interests in mind.
