You have two ages — and you can change one of them
Chronological age is the number on your license; it moves at the same pace for everyone and can't be influenced or changed. Biological age measures how old or young your cells and organs are actually functioning, and it moves in either direction.
Biological age — the age of your cells — reflects accumulated cellular damage; lowering it means clearing that damage, not just slowing how fast it builds up.
Sleep, nutrition, exercise, and stress management are well-documented pillars of longevity, but they have limited direct effect on clearing damage already inside your cells. That requires a specific process: autophagy.
How to lower your biological age by 2.5 years
By activating autophagy a few times a year, you have the power to influence your biological age.
This was proven through a study in Nature Communications: three monthly cycles of Prolon's 5-Day Fasting Mimicking Diet, clinically proven to be the only nutrition program to activate autophagy, was shown to lower biological age score by 2.5 years

Other benefits include supporting healthy metabolic markers and immunity, lowering visceral fat, improving skin hydration, and protecting lean muscle. And you don’t have to go without food to do it.
That’s it. Just 15 days out of 90 can affect the way you age.
