We work pretty hard at the Murder Sheet, and sometimes when we overdo it, we end up feeling and frankly looking totally worn out and depleted. If you’ve ever run into us eating fish sandwiches and looking distressed at the food court, you probably have seen this firsthand.  

That's why we’re thrilled about our brand new sponsor, Prolon! Prolon is a science-backed solution that helps rejuvenate you from the cellular level and out. We’re talking better energy, improved skin appearance, and fat loss. ‘

Prolon’s Fasting Mimicking Diet is a plant-based nutrition program backed by leading US medical centers. You kick things off with a five-day program where you enjoy snacks, soups, and beverages designed to make your body’s cells believe they’re fasting. At the same time, you’re giving a serious boost to your metabolic and cardiovascular health.

You don’t have to think about it or worry. Everything is pre-packaged and carefully labeled. You just eat the food and enjoy healthier blood sugar levels, fat loss, and having more energy. They’ve found that three consecutive Prolon cycles can reduce your biological age score by 2.5 years and cut your waist circumference by 1.5 inches.

We love that Prolon is science-backed, and that it was researched and developed over the course of decades at USC’s Longevity Institute. It’s the perfect reset for anyone who’s looking to supercharge their health. 

Fasting can help achieve your health goals, but it’s really hard. Try fasting with food instead. Try Prolon.  

To help you kickstart a health plan that truly works, Prolon is offering Murder Sheet listeners 15% off sitewide plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-Day Nutrition Program!

● Just visit ProlonLife.com/MSHEET—to claim your 15% discount and your bonus gift.
