Discover the power of fasting - your key to a lighter, healthier you! In a world where diets and food trends come and go, fasting offers a timeless, simple way to not only lose weight, but to keep it off for good. This book takes you on an inspiring journey that shows how short-term fasting can change your life, paving the way to a slimmer body while boosting your health in a variety of ways. Many people have found that it is easier to give up food completely for a short period of time than to constantly eat in small quantities, count calories or follow complicated recipes. This is exactly where our guide comes in: It sheds light on why fasting is not only an effective strategy for losing weight, but also how it deeply cleanses and regenerates your body. Through practical tips and sound science, it reveals how fasting stimulates autophagy - your body's natural cleansing process that rejuvenates cells and reduces the risk of disease. From improving metabolic health to increasing mental clarity and extending lifespan, the benefits of fasting go far beyond weight loss. With this book, you'll get a comprehensive guide that not only shows you how to fast successfully and reach your desired weight, but also how to maintain it long-term without constantly feeling restricted. Join us on this enlightening journey through the world of fasting. Discover how you can not only lose weight with this simple but powerful method, but also make a major contribution to your health. Take the first step towards a lighter, healthier life - because sometimes less really is more.

Dear readers,
Welcome to my guidebook "Slimming through therapeutic fasting: lose weight easily and live healthier for longer". I am delighted that you have chosen this book and would like to take you on an exciting journey to a healthier lifestyle.
In this foreword, I would like to give you a personal introduction and explain why I decided to write this book. I would also like to give you an insight into the purpose of this book so that you know exactly what to expect.
I have been fascinated by the topic of therapeutic fasting for many years and have experienced for myself how it has positively influenced my life. For this reason, I would like to share my knowledge and experience with you so that you too can benefit from the many advantages of therapeutic fasting.
In the following chapters you will learn everything you need to know about the basics of therapeutic fasting, the health benefits and practical guidance on how to successfully integrate therapeutic fasting into your everyday life. I will use a friendly and motivational style to inspire and encourage you to find your own way to a healthier and slimmer life.
I hope you enjoy reading it and, above all, wish you every success on your journey to a new lifestyle!
I am delighted that you have found your way to my guidebook "Slimming through therapeutic fasting: lose weight easily and stay healthy for longer". Before we dive into the world of therapeutic fasting together, I would like to tell you my own story and explain what motivated me to write this book.
For many years I struggled with my weight. I tried countless diets, from the latest trend diets to the classic calorie counters, and nothing really seemed to work. The kilos stubbornly stuck to me and my frustration grew with every failed diet.
Perhaps you know this feeling all too well - the feeling that nothing works, no matter how hard you try. I remember how I felt when I stood on the scales for the second time and saw the same weight as before. It was disheartening and frustrating at the same time.
But then I came across therapeutic fasting. I was skeptical at first. How could it be that I had tried in vain to lose weight for years, and now suddenly fasting was supposed to be the solution? But I was willing to try anything, so I decided to give therapeutic fasting a chance - and it changed my life.
Therapeutic fasting was like a liberation for me. I had finally found a method that not only allowed me to lose weight, but also to improve my health. And the best thing about it was that I was able to keep the weight off without having to constantly restrict myself.
I can't tell you how liberating it was to have finally found a solution that worked. After all those years of failure, it felt like I'd finally found the right path - and I want to help you do the same.
That's why I wrote this book - to show you that it is possible to lose weight and stay healthy at the same time. I would like to share my experiences and insights with you so that you too can experience the benefits of therapeutic fasting.
So, be ready to step out of your comfort zone and embark on a journey to a healthier and happier life. I promise it will be a journey full of experiences, challenges and above all successes - and I will help you to master every step of the way.
My main aim is to show you how you can lose weight quickly and easily without feeling hungry all the time and how you can easily maintain your new body weight by occasionally fasting again.
I know from my own experience how frustrating it can be to struggle through a diet, only to realize at the end that the weight you have painstakingly lost comes back just as quickly as soon as you start eating normally again. This is not only discouraging, but can also cause you to lose faith in yourself and the motivation to change anything at all.
But I want to reassure you that there is another way - a way that will not only help you lose weight, but also allow you to maintain your new weight permanently without constantly counting calories or cutting out certain foods.
This way is therapeutic fasting.
Therapeutic fasting offers a holistic and sustainable solution to the problem of being overweight. By abstaining from solid food for a certain period of time and only consuming liquids instead, the body is stimulated to burn its own fat reserves and detoxify and regenerate at the same time.
But the best thing about therapeutic fasting is that it is not just a short-term solution, but also offers long-term benefits. By fasting regularly, you can not only maintain the lost weight, but also improve your health and vitality and reduce the risk of numerous chronic diseases.
In this book, I will show you exactly how you can successfully integrate therapeutic fasting into your everyday life without having to sacrifice enjoyment and quality of life. You will learn how to choose the right time for fasting, how to optimally prepare for it and which type of fasting is best suited to you.
I will also give you practical tips and tricks on how to deal with the challenges of fasting and how to avoid falling back into old eating habits. Because I want you not only to lose weight, but also to be able to maintain your new weight permanently - without having to constantly restrict yourself.
So be excited and get ready for an exciting journey to a new lifestyle. I promise you it will be a journey full of surprises, challenges and above all successes - and I will help you to master every step of the way.
