“Everyone can perform magic,
everyone can reach their goals,
if they can think, if they can wait, if they can fast.”
from Siddhartha
These classifications cannot replace medical diagnostics or therapy by a physician or psychotherapist in individual cases. No naturopathic statements are made about detoxification, elimination, deacidification or healing, because although these are traditionally discussed, they are not scientifically proven.
Fasting: what happens in the body
During fasting, energy is released specifically from fat tissue, because the body no longer obtains energy from carbohydrates but from its fat stores. This metabolic shift is called ketosis. In studies and specialist articles, fasting is examined in connection with the following topics, among others:
body weight
blood sugar metabolism and diabetes risk
inflammatory processes in the body
joints, fatty liver, cholesterol levels and exhaustion
autophagy (cellular breakdown and recycling processes)
