Five days only. Die Revolution des Fastens

Fasting is an ancient cultural technique whose positive effects on our health are indisputable. However, traditional liquid fasting is difficult to maintain in everyday life. According to the latest research by aging researcher Prof. Dr. Valter Longo, it is not necessary to abstain from solid food for days to enjoy the many benefits of fasting. His scientific findings suggest that so-called fasting mimicking (Fasting Mimicking Diet), which only pretends to impose strict fasting on the body, is just as effective but easier to maintain. Unlike strict fasting, it provides the body with essential nutrients in the form of small daily meals. Fasting mimicking can efficiently reduce body fat, and many risk factors for lifestyle diseases can be positively influenced. This can lead to reduced inflammation, lowered tumor risk, improved brain function, normalized blood sugar and blood pressure, as well as lowered cholesterol and triglycerides. In this unique guide, fitness icon Barbara Becker and nutritionist Franca Mangiameli explain how to implement fasting mimicking with fresh foods and what to pay attention to in order to benefit from cellular renewal through autophagy.
