Summary

Fasting is the traditional way of pausing, becoming still, cleansing oneself physically, mentally and spiritually and becoming more flexible and permeable again. Weight loss is a pleasant "side effect".

Fasting strengthens the immune system, detoxifies and deacidifies the body. The greatest benefit for the fasting person, regardless of the reason for fasting, is the stimulation of the inner healing powers. A third of the immune system's energy is usually used up in food intake. During fasting, this third is completely available to the body for regeneration.
The connective tissue is decongested, the skin becomes smoother, the hair stronger and all perceptions, such as sight, hearing and smell, become more intense. Many people also see fasting as an impulse to initiate changes in their lives.
The Gerod fasting days include daily BenefitYoga®, meditation, hiking and a festive breaking of the fast.
