Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I fast?
Beginners often start with 5-7 days. This gives the body time to enter fasting metabolism. Shorter formats (3 days) are good for trying it out. Longer than 14 days only under medical supervision.
Will I experience strong hunger?
The first 2-3 days can be challenging. After that, the body switches over and hunger feelings significantly decrease. Guidance and distraction through the program help enormously.
Can I work during fasting?
For most fasting retreats, you take time off. Fasting needs rest and focus. Light activities are possible, but do not expect performance. Regeneration is part of the process.
