The FASTING BOX
for your home

During fasting, the metabolism switches to so-called ketosis – and meatbolises fat instead of glucose and produces ketones, with numerous positive effects: The autophagy process is activated, resulting in a deep cleansing of the cells and tissue. It can also help to reduce pain and mobility restrictions.

The Buchinger Wilhelmi FASTING BOX is a hypocaloric ketogenic programme with intermittent fasting. Its effect is comparable with that of a short-term fast.

What is known as the switchback phase lasts around 4 days and serves as a gentle return to eating mixed-food meals. We recommend choosing foods that are regional, organic and, if possible, fresh (e.g. from the weekly market). In the user guide, you can find all the recipes as well as a shopping list for your meals. 

The box contains all the products that you need. For the restart day at the end of the 5-day program, you will find a glass of applesauce in the FASTING BOX, which will be your first solid food together with the cashew kernels. 

We deliberately exclude fruit and fruit juices from our FASTING BOX since they contain many carbohydrates. Instead, soups made of organic vegetables make up the main part of our FASTING BOX. By doing so, your body undergoes a healthy metabolic change more quickly. Autophagy and Apoptosis – the most important cell cleansing mechanisms – begin to occur. 

Besides a natural yogurt for transition day (day 1), you do not need any additional products. 

We have made it as easy as possible to get started with our 5-day program:

• We will send you a “welcome email” within 2 days of your order at the latest. In this e-mail you will receive:
  • Tips for preparation (we recommend that you start your step-by-step preparation 5 days in advance),
  • the option of activating digital accompaniment (we support you every day with inspiring video messages),
  • and access to our online community.
• With the box, you will receive our printed User Guide with instructions on the experience.
