In Intermittent Fasting, the fasting rhythm is paramount. The fasting phase allows the body to continuously burn fat without constant replenishment. The most popular time window is the 16:8 method, where healthy, sugar-free, protein-rich food with plenty of vegetables and low-sugar fruits can be consumed within 8 hours, followed by a strict 16-hour fast ideally starting at 6 p.m. Adequate sleep is important, as is drinking water and tea. Black coffee without sugar is also recommended for its appetite-suppressing effects. This fasting variant is supported by exercise and physical activity. Intermittent fasting is a true fountain of youth, as it delays the aging process of body cells and positively affects blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels.

• Reduced diet or alkaline diet in a 16:8 interval rhythm
• Water and tea station in the room
• Introductory talk and tips for afterwards

Fasting is a natural method of preventive medicine.

The methodological difference between "Fasting for the Healthy" and Buchinger therapeutic fasting lies only in the responsibility (self-directed or medically supervised), the objective of the (therapeutic) measure (health promotion or disease treatment), and the duration of the fasting. The gentle liquid therapy for weight loss, detoxification, and cleansing is a strict form of abstinence for a limited time from food and stimulants. Instead, after intestinal cleansing, ample hydration in the form of water, tea, vegetable broths, and juices is ensured. To keep the circulation active, walking and hiking are recommended, alternated with periods of rest and relaxation. Towards the end of the fasting period, a careful reintroduction of nutrition takes place. Fasting can help alleviate symptoms of rheumatism, gout, diabetes, skin and intestinal diseases, and provides excellent conditions for more joy, increased vitality, and a strengthened immune system.

It's all about balance! Alkaline fasting is not a fasting cure, but a gourmet diet that can be easily implemented in everyday life! It consciously avoids acid-forming foods and luxury items such as meat, sausages, eggs, fatty dairy products, sweets, and alcohol.

Alkaline-forming foods such as fruits, vegetables, herbs, sprouts, mushrooms, sprouts, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, almonds, and high-quality vegetable oils are used. Water and tea are consumed. With a targeted activity and relaxation programme, the acid-base balance is quickly restored. This form of deacidification and detoxification can help with rheumatic diseases, skin problems, migraines, and performance decline, and improves overall health.

The Schroth therapy is a natural healing method that strengthens the body's self-healing and defensive capabilities.

Fasting is a key method in longevity medicine!Success is based on the four pillars of diet & nutrition, wraps & detox, drinking and dry days, as well as rest & exercise. The Schroth diet is low-calorie (about 800-850 Kcal), predominantly alkaline and gentle. For Schroth wraps, one is wrapped in moist cold linen sheets, packed with several hot water bottles. This induces a healing fever that flushes out metabolic residues. The body's own defenses are enhanced, and the skin is trained for detoxification. The spa doctor determines drinking and dry days to further strengthen the skin's drainage function. Besides water, tea, and juices, a special spa wine is allowed on drinking days. On drinking days, sports and exercise are recommended, while dry days are for rest, relaxation techniques, and massages.
