L-Nutra Health Or Prolon 5-Day: Which Is Right For You?
When it comes to navigating your personal health, choosing the best approach may feel like a daunting task. That’s why L-Nutra offers scientifically-backed nutrition technology products and programs that meet you wherever you are and support you every step of the way. Whether you're working to manage and improve metabolic conditions, or focusing on prevention and healthy aging, there is an L-Nutra solution that best serves your goals and needs.
L-Nutra is the parent company of both Prolon and L-Nutra Health, the medical division of L-Nutra. While Prolon’s flagship 5-Day Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) is geared towards supporting healthy aging, weight care, and health maintenance, L-Nutra Health offers comprehensive programs using fasting mimicking diets, lab monitoring, and dietitian consultations to help manage and treat metabolic conditions and diseases like type 2 diabetes. Since both offer unique benefits catering to different needs, we’ve outlined each below to help you make the most informed choice for your wellness journey.
Dietitian-Guided Comprehensive Programs: L-Nutra Health - Prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, Weight Loss, Glycemic Management, and Other Metabolic Conditions
With a specific emphasis on improving metabolic health, L-Nutra Health offers personally guided, medically-led programs formulated to help manage and potentially reverse more serious conditions and diseases like type 2 diabetes. They may also be right for you if you struggle with metabolic imbalances like blood sugar regulation, insulin resistance, and obesity. These comprehensive and personalized programs are centered around a specially formulated low-glycemic FMD, and last either six or twelve months.
They are designed to:
- Manage, improve, and potentially reverse metabolic health conditions without drastic lifestyle changes
- Lower the risks of further, more serious complications associated with metabolic health conditions
- Reduce (and in some cases eliminate) the need for medications
These clinically-tested, non-invasive, and medically-guided programs provide:
- Medical and/or nutritional oversight depending on the program type
- A specially formulated, low-glycemic 5-Day FMD to stabilize glucose levels
- 1-on-1 dietitian consultations to guide nutrition and other healthy lifestyle changes
- Educational resources to help enhance outcomes
- Ongoing support from a team of trained professionals
L-Nutra Health Offers The Following Programs:
- 12-Month Diabetes Remission Program: A twelve-month physician-led program that includes lab and medication monitoring, and multiple FMD cycles personalized to your specific needs. Associated outcomes may include: type 2 diabetes remission, decreased reliance on medication, improved blood sugar control, cellular rejuvenation, and reduced biological age.
- 6-Month Metabolic Health Program: A six-month dietitian-led program that includes Longevity Diet principles and four FMD cycles. Associated outcomes include: sustainable weight loss, improved glucose management, and potential reversal of prediabetes markers.
- 5-Day Promete Program: This introductory plan allows you to experience a 5-day health coach-guided fasting cycle before committing to a long-term program. Includes one cycle of the specially formulated low-glycemic FMD paired with a personalized health coach visit. Note this option is not available for patients diagnosed with diabetes.
When used for six consecutive months as part of a comprehensive program, the FMD in a published clinical trial has shown: *
- A 59% reduction in insulin resistance
- An average of 22 lbs fat-focused weight loss while preserving muscle A 1.4% decrease in A1c levels
- Improved glucose balance, LDL cholesterol, and blood pressure overall

Self-Guided Product: Prolon 5-Day FMD - For Healthy Aging, Weight Care, and Overall Wellness
In contrast to the longer and dietitian-guided L-Nutra Health Programs, Prolon 5-Day is a shorter, self-guided commitment that may help kickstart healthier diet and lifestyle change in those who are generally healthy. Backed by decades of clinical research and development to enhance health and longevity, it is the first and only patented nutrition program to support longevity through cellular rejuvenation. Prolon 5-Day FMD may be right for you if your health goals are geared more towards healthy aging, fat-focused weight loss, and general wellness. By prompting the body’s own processes for cellular repair and recycling, Prolon 5-Day has been shown to:*
- Reduce biological age score
- Target and sustain fat-focused weight loss with protected muscle mass
- Enhance post-fast skin appearance, mental clarity, and energy levels
- User-reported reduction in sugar cravings and better relationship with food
While even a single cycle of Prolon 5-Day offers some benefits, each builds upon the last. Research suggests starting with an initial three-month cycle followed by three to four cycles yearly (about once per quarter) to maximize results.

As with any decision to make effective change on behalf of your own wellness, it’s always important to consider your current state of health to be sure you choose the approach that’s right for you. If you’re struggling with a more serious metabolic condition, we suggest starting with one of the L-Nutra Health programs to help manage and stabilize your health. If you are generally healthy and looking to achieve and maintain wellness, support weight care, and support longevity, we suggest opting for Prolon.
