What is the Fasting Mimicking Diet? The Fasting Mimicking Diet is a low-calorie, low-protein, low-carb, low-fat, 5-day, plant-based eating plan that fools the body into thinking it's fasting so that it can enter a cellular protection and regeneration mode while still maintaining all important nutrients. While the diet aims to achieve a state of nutritional ketosis, it differs from the typical ketogenic diet in that it is not only low in carbohydrates but also low in protein. As previously mentioned, a reduction in protein is necessary to reduce IGF-1 and induce regenerative cellular effects. General information on implementing the FMD diet -It is low calorie (about 800 calories per day) and can last up to 5 days per month. If you want, you can do the diet every other month. - Be sure to break the 5-day fast with other foods so you can trick and confuse your body into performing at its best. You also want to avoid becoming anemic. -After completing the FMD cycle, you should not overeat on unsuitable foods. You have to be sensitive to your body because this diet is a healing diet and not a starvation diet that promises big weight loss. More information can be found in the book...
