The perfect time for fasting is a highly individual matter. The Buchinger Wilhelmi FASTING BOX is designed to allow you to integrate it into your day-to-day life easily. Some people prefer fasting in daily life, as working days provide more structure than weekends and you are exposed to less temptation. Other people, on the other hand, prefer to fast on holiday so that they can fully concentrate on their fast.

Our doctors recommend not fasting during pregnancy or the breastfeeding period. Our five-day programme is suitable as an introduction for weaning, however.

If you are acutely ill with clear symptoms, our doctors recommend rescheduling the start of the programme. If you only have mild symptoms, you should ideally listen to your body and make an individual choice. If you are unsure, please contact your general practitioner.

When it comes to choosing a time to start, there is no right or wrong time. Notice what your body is telling you and select a time that suits you, ideally a day when you will not be distracted by important appointments.

  • Especially if you are fasting for the first time, a good time to start could be a weekend, as your body can then concentrate entirely on changing your metabolism.
  • People with experience in fasting often like to start their fasts during the week, as day-to-day work distracts them from any temptations. If you start on a Monday, you can look forward to eating solid food again by the weekend.
