What is therapeutic fasting according to Buchinger?
This method dates back to Dr Otto Buchinger (1878–1966). He experienced first-hand the health benefits of conscious abstinence from eating. During the fast, around 250 kilocalories are consumed daily in the form of herbal teas, vegetable broths, fruit and vegetable juices, and water. This relieves the digestive system while the body enters an active metabolic state. Rather than coming from food, the body's energy now comes from its own reserves: fat deposits and stored sugar are mobilised.
What effect does the therapy have?
During fasting, the body detoxifies and deacidifies itself, reducing inflammatory processes and purifying tissue through autophagy. As a result, the body loses 300–500 g of weight per day. Chronic illnesses and pain are alleviated, and blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels are reduced.
Therapeutic fasting is a suitable preventative measure and an effective way to introduce a change in diet. It relieves excess weight, stress and body toxins. It clears the mind and promotes self-healing powers.
