December is known for the Christmas season with its delicious treats, January is a reminder of New Year's resolutions, but what does the last month of winter actually stand for? In Christian terms, February is about Lent, i.e. consciously giving up a certain thing or activity. The church fasting period lasts a total of 40 days and ends at Easter. However, many less devout people also use this time as an opportunity to go without. Therapeutic fasting is often mentioned as part of church fasting. However, these are two fundamentally different things: church fasting is intended to remind us of Jesus and prepare us for Easter. Whereas therapeutic fasting emphasises holistic health. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are various forms of therapeutic fasting, all of which pursue the goal of improving well-being, but differ in the type of fasting. One of the best-known forms of fasting is Buchinger fasting, in which certain juices, vegetable broths, selected herbal teas and salts are permitted. Another form is the Mayr diet. Here, in addition to herbal teas and water, bread rolls and milk may also be consumed. However, these are just two examples from many forms of fasting. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Therapeutic fasting describes abstaining from eating solid food for a period of a few days up to 30 days. Most fasting cures are carried out for five to ten days. As the name implies, therapeutic fasting is intended to bring healing. However, people with pre-existing medical conditions should consult a doctor beforehand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Renunciation, renunciation, renunciation, but what are the benefits of therapeutic fasting? Therapeutic fasting can be the trigger for many positive changes: People who fast report that they have found inner peace again and that their body feeling has improved. Study results also show a positive correlation between fasting and chronic illnesses. This is due to the fact that cell cleansing is stimulated by the process of fasting. Cell cleansing frees the body from harmful substances that can favour diseases and ageing processes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

However, fasting can also cause undesirable side effects. These include severe tiredness, headaches, a bad mood or concentration problems. These side effects are as common as they are harmless, usually occur around the third to fourth day of therapeutic fasting and disappear by themselves. However, it is advisable to carry out therapeutic fasting at a time when stress factors are not dominant and there is sufficient time to devote to your body and your inner self.<\/p>\n

Therapeutic fasting can therefore have many positive aspects, but it is important to listen to your body and find the right time for it. Whether you give up sweets or alcohol for Christian reasons, fast for health reasons or do nothing at all is up to you. February is just a reminder to do some soul-searching and let go of bad things.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
