Mimic Fasting Recipes

"When your stomach is full, it is easy to talk about fasting" - Hieronymus Two things brought us (the five authors) to this book. On the one hand, great books like "The Longevità Diet / The Longevity Diet" by Valter Longo. On the other hand, first fasting experiences we had already made ourselves. Whether it was juice fasting, intermittent fasting, therapeutic / buchinger fasting, water fasting or base fasting - each of us had already tried at least one of them. In the end, it seemed crystal clear to us: According to the current state of science and respective studies, "mimic fasting" with its five-day fasting program is the most promising method. This rather new fasting method seems to enable you to eat more than with the classical fasting methods and their diet plans- and still take all the advantages / health benefits of fasting with you. Whether it be in the context of diabetes, weight loss, anti-aging or stem cell activation. Our conclusion is that the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) is an experience that everyone should have once in their life. Yet, fasting without any assistance is difficult, especially when you want to prepare everything yourself. We learned this the hard way, but that is what eventually gave rise to this book. We tried and recommend the ProLon mimic fasting kit, especially if you want to put as little effort into food preparation as possible. However, we thought in order to do it 100% right, we needed a do-it-yourself approach and prepare everything freshly & by ourselves. Originally only intended for us, we developed and tested recipes, came up with a fasting guide including best practices and tips for friends or simply ourselves the next time we would mimic-fast. In other words: This work contains everything that we would have wanted to know when we started mimic fasting for the first time, including a thought-through meal plan. Eventually we put additional work into it in order to make it look nicer and make it sharable with other like you - and to save you as much pain as possible. Over 30 FMD recipes are waiting to be cooked and eaten during your future mimic fasts. After such promising research results in recent years, we would like to make the potential benefits of mimic fasting on health and longevity more accessible to you - and make your fasting days as culinary as possible.
