Plexus Worldwide recently launched a 3-day nutritionally supported fast system designed to help reset the metabolism. The direct seller of health and wellness products said the new system is aimed at revitalizing, restoring and resetting whole-body health.
Because prolonged low calorie diets can lead to physiological changes that may cause the body to adapt to the calorie restriction and prevent further weight loss, intermittent fasting (IF) is gaining popularity. IF addresses the problem by cycling between a low calorie level for a brief time followed by normal eating, which could prevent these adaptations.
Dr. Michael Hartman, PhD, Vice President of Research and Development at Plexus Worldwide, told NutraIngredients-USA that Reset was inspired by the emerging field of research around intermittent fasting and metabolism. “While studies show numerous benefits associated with intermittent fasting, it’s challenging for many people to completely fast (have no food for days). Plexus Reset provides the same benefits as intermittent fasting while reducing certain challenges such as hunger and lack of satiety. It allows the general public to get the benefits of intermittent fasting in a manageable way.”

Plexus Reset consists of eight products that support overall health and wellness and contain a blend of proprietary supplements with functional ingredients to support healthy cellular metabolism.
The system, which runs $149, includes a combination of newcomers along with existing top sellers designed to work synergistically:
