Most consumers experience mild to moderate hunger especially on the first round, but feel their energy levels are maintained. On the second and third rounds, consumers report less hunger. We will offer ideas on how to manage your hunger.
Research suggests that calorie restriction will slow the aging process. Calorie restriction also activates an important metabolic process called the Nrf2 pathway. This process increases production of antioxidants and detoxification enzymes and decreases the formation of toxic free radicals. However, prolonged calorie restriction has dangers including loss of lean muscle mass and nutritional depletion. The Vitality Diet which is only 6 days long prevents the dangers of prolonged calorie restriction.
