Frequently asked questions about alkaline fasting

Healing fasting according to Dr. Buchinger at the Hufeland Clinic Bad Mergentheim is not a zero diet. Every day, 200 - 300 kilocalories are consumed - in the form of fasting juices and a fasting vegetable broth, which is always freshly cooked. In addition, the consumption of herbal teas and water is permitted.

Basic fasting, on the other hand, involves three delicious meals a day. The alkaline fasting cure promotes vegetables from a side dish to the main course and thus relieves the body. This is accompanied by plenty of non-carbonated water and/or diluted herbal tea. During alkaline fasting, acid-forming foods are avoided with the aim of bringing the acid-base balance back into a healthy equilibrium.

Yes, as a participant in a fasting cure at the Hufeland Clinic, you will receive medical care, starting with an intake consultation. Depending on the fasting arrangement and your personal situation, we will also draw up a blood count. As a clinic equipped for internal medicine, we also have the option of further diagnostics, e.g. ECG and ultrasound examinations. If you have any pre-existing conditions (e.g. diabetes or high blood pressure), you will be monitored more closely. In any case, our medical team is available to you at any time should you experience any side effects or discomfort during our fasting offers.

In medical emergencies, medical staff are available around the clock (you can reach them at night via an emergency bell). There is a doctor on standby duty.

Fasting according to Dr. Buchinger can be done alone or in a group at the Hufeland Clinic. Our experience has shown that the positive fasting experience is enhanced by the sense of community in a group. This is why we offer specific group dates (courses start on Saturdays).

You are also welcome to book your fasting stay separately from the group offers (flexible choice of dates).

Basic fasting is a mild form of fasting and is therefore suitable for almost everyone; the indications for alkaline fasting are very similar to those for fasting.

There is basically no limit to alkaline fasting. We recommend a 1-3 week alkaline fasting cure.
